M1L22 Moosehead Trail

About this home

Set atop Mount Harris in Dixmont, this 116± acre parcel blends scenic beauty with practical investment value. From its elevated vantage, the property offers panoramic views of the Longfellow Mountains, including Sugarloaf Mountain, Mount Abraham, and Mount Bigelow--a rare perspective in this part of Maine. With approximately 1,700 feet of frontage along Moosehead Trail, the land provides easy, year-round access while maintaining a private, rural feel. Elevations range from about 800 to 1,180 feet, creating a rolling topography ideal for mountain-view homesites or subdivision potential. Whether you envision one private estate build or multiple house lots, the property's size and layout offer flexibility for future development. The forest has been professionally managed for oak growth, ensuring a strong long-term timber investment. A selective harvest completed in 2022 removed lower-value species, enhancing the health and quality of the remaining stand for future value. Adding to its investment appeal, a lease for a communications tower generates approximately $8,500 per year, providing steady income with minimal oversight. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the abundant wildlife habitat, with deer and turkey thriving among a mix of hardwood forest, natural clearings, and varying terrain. There's ample opportunity for hunting, ATV riding, trail creation, and year-round recreation, all within a setting that feels both secluded and accessible. Despite its private atmosphere, the property is conveniently located--Bangor and Belfast are just 30 minutes away, offering easy access to shopping, hospitals, and coastal destinations.
