Description

Come make some memories that will last for generations in the heart of Eastern Maine's natural beauty. Rand Brook Preserve is an exceptional off-grid retreat cabin set upon 550± acres of forestland with ridges, valleys, wetlands and nearly 1 ½ miles of frontage along the trout-rich Rand Brook, part of the headwaters of the Passadumkeag River. LOCATION 1218 Upper Dobsis Road in Lakeville. This property location offers seclusion while remaining accessible to nearby towns and amenities. The small town of Lakeville, with just 104 residents reported in the last census, will ensure you find the seclusion you have been looking for. This rural town with limited government services enjoys one of the lowest property tax rates in New England. Conveniently located just eight miles from Lee for gas and food, and less than 20 miles from Lincoln for the nearest hospital, restaurants, grocery stores, building and hardware supplies and many other services. Bangor, with its international airport and vibrant cultural scene, is only 70 miles away, while Portland and Boston are within three to five hours for longer excursions. CABIN The charming 416-square-foot wood-framed cabin sits on the south facing slope of a ridge at 420 feet above sea level. This side hill location offers protection from the northwest winds and at the same time is well located for off grid solar. Designed for comfort and functionality, the cabin includes a cozy bedroom, a full bathroom with shower, sink, and flush toilet. It has a fully equipped kitchen featuring a gas range and refrigerator. A covered porch offers breathtaking views of the river valley and Passadumkeag Mountain. Additional improvements include a shipping container, a generator building/storage shed. All this is hidden at the end of a nearly half-mile-long private driveway. 550± ACRES The land is a blend of rolling ridges, fertile valleys, and wetlands that support diverse habitats for many of Maine's wildlife.
