About this home

Located on West Indian Road in the quiet rural town of Woodville, this 40.18± acre surveyed parcel offers an opportunity to own a large stretch of forested waterfront land on the legendary Penobscot River. If you've been searching for privacy, wildlife, mature timber, and access to some of Maine's best outdoor recreation, this property deserves your attention. Whether you envision an off-grid cabin, recreational getaway, hunting camp, or long-term land investment, this property delivers authentic Maine wilderness in a peaceful setting far removed from busy highways and crowded neighborhoods. Woodville is a small Penobscot County town with a population of approximately 201 residents, located on the western side of the Penobscot River. Despite the secluded feel, services and shopping are conveniently available in Lincoln just 12 miles away. Bangor is approximately 60 miles south, while Portland, Boston, and even New York City remain within reasonable driving distance for weekend or seasonal use. The land itself features approximately 631 feet of frontage on the Penobscot River, one of New England's great waterways stretching roughly 350 miles across Maine before flowing into Penobscot Bay and the Atlantic Ocean. This section of the river is known for outstanding wildlife habitat and recreation. Bald eagles, deer, moose, otter, beaver, and numerous wading birds are commonly seen here, while anglers appreciate the area's exceptional smallmouth bass fishing. Elevations range from approximately 170 to 230 feet above sea level, with a high riverbank leading into more level interior forestland. The soils consist primarily of Plaisted and Howland loams along with Monarda complex soils. While too rocky for large-scale farming, the land is well suited for timber growth, food plots, or a small garden area. Older tree growth and an established trail network throughout the property make it easy to explore on foot, by ATV, or while hunting.
