Property Description
Offered for the first time in generations, this remarkable ±484-acre contiguous tract of timberland spans both Mount Chase (±435 acres) and Patten (±49 acres) and has been held by the same family for approximately 70 years. Last commercially harvested about eight years ago, the property is well-positioned for long-term timber income potential while still offering exceptional recreational and residential appeal. The land features approximately 60 feet of owned frontage on Shin Pond Road and an extensive network of private interior logging roads totaling roughly 8,400 feet, providing excellent access throughout the property. Elevations rise gradually from about 840 feet above sea level at the road to approximately 1,000 feet near the rear of the parcel, where the land then drops off toward a neighboring property-creating the potential for panoramic views of Mount Katahdin. Soils are predominantly productive silty loams, classified largely as Farm Class 2, which are well known for supporting strong tree growth. Approximately half of the acreage benefits from a favorable southwestern exposure, further enhancing timber productivity and overall land quality. Beyond its forestry value, this property offers the rare opportunity to own a large, private holding where a home or camp could be built within the boundaries, surrounded by hundreds of acres of your own land. The location places you close to some of northern Maine's most sought-after recreational destinations, including Baxter State Park, Katahdin Woods & Waters National Monument, Grand Lake Matagamon, the East Branch of the Penobscot River, the Seboeis River, and extensive hunting, fishing, snowmobiling, and hiking opportunities. Whether you're seeking a long-term timber investment, a legacy property to hold for future generations, or a private retreat in the heart of the Katahdin region, this is a truly special offering.
