About this home

Discover the rare opportunity to own **9± surveyed acres with 525± feet of frontage on the East Branch of the Penobscot River** in scenic Grindstone Township, Maine. This unique property offers private river access plus a separate buildable parcel across the road, all with year-round access on a paved state-maintained highway. The land is divided by Route 11, with approximately **1.75± acres on the river side** and the balance directly across the road. The riverfront parcel provides easy access for fishing, canoeing, kayaking, campfires, seasonal camping, or parking a self-contained RV. With 525± feet of frontage, there is plenty of room to enjoy one of Maine's great rivers. Across the road, the larger upland parcel is wooded, private, and well suited for a cabin, seasonal retreat, or year-round home. Electric power is available on **both sides of the road**, making future development easier and more affordable. The terrain is generally level with sandy and gravelly loam soils common to the area. The property has seen minimal harvesting in recent years, leaving a healthy mix of mature hardwood and softwood trees. A few old apple trees and openings hint at former homestead use. The East Branch is legendary for its beauty, cold clean water, wildlife, paddling, and fishing. Much of the upriver shoreline remains undeveloped and protected by conservation lands, preserving the wild character of this remarkable watershed. It is increasingly rare to find privately owned frontage connected to such an unspoiled river.
