OPEN HOUSE 10/03/2026 1:30 PM - 3:00 PM Rare 138-acre legacy estate with more than a mile of frontage on the Medomak River. Extraordinary in both scale and setting, 179 Skidmore Road offers a remarkable opportunity to own one of those increasingly rare pieces of Maine. Encompassing 138± acres of sweeping fields, open pasture, farmland and woodland, with an astonishing 6,600± feet of frontage along the Medomak River, this is a property defined by privacy, beauty and possibility. With 7.5 acres reserved, there's plenty of room to continue to steward this exceptional parcel with low impact activities, while still enjoying space to grow, farm and live. At its heart is a lovely Cape-style home offering 2 bedrooms and 1 bath, a full basement, attached garage and an unfinished second floor ready to accommodate additional living space. The home is surrounded by an expansive pastoral landscape where open fields give way to woods and ultimately the river. A massive double-ended barn is a destination unto itself--an impressive structure offering exceptional space for agricultural or equestrian pursuits, equipment, collections, workshop or studio space, and countless other possibilities. Much of the acreage is conserved, helping preserve the extraordinary natural character of the land for generations to come. With approximately 1.3 miles of Medomak River frontage, the river is not simply a boundary, but an integral part of this spectacular property. Whether envisioned as a private country estate, working farm, equestrian retreat or simply an extraordinary place to call home, opportunities of this scale and character are seldom available. 138± acres. 6,600± feet of river frontage. Fields, pasture, woods and a magnificent barn. A truly exceptional piece of Maine.
