Property Description
Once the heart of one of Maine's most beloved nostalgic radio stations, this elevated setting above Berry's Mill Pond is now ready for a new story. Rising above the quiet waters of the pond, the land offers long southwesterly views stretching into Mill Cove, where warm afternoon light and sunsets shimmer across pristine waters and open fields. The Cove teems with wildlife: deer moving across the meadow edges while egrets and ospreys patrol the waters. The 1971 WJTO broadcast building stands at the high point, modest, rich in history, and full of character, offering surprising flexibility as a workshop, studio, creative outpost, or basecamp while planning future possibilities. Its position, combined with the land's gentle slopes, open meadows, and sheltered shoreline, offers a range of options: gardens and orchards, a well-sited home, or even a small cluster of structures designed for shared living, multi-generational needs, or creative collaboration. Much of the surrounding landscape has been secured in permanent conservation through a local land trust, ensuring the natural setting and sense of openness endure for generations. Close to Brunswick and Bath, yet tucked away enough to feel private and serene, this setting blends convenience, history, and ecological stewardship. Sun, water, and open skies set the stage for a Maine coastal lifestyle unlike any other. Whether drawn by the view, the story, or the promise of life above one of Maine's most remarkable coves, this land awaits its next steward, ready to shape the next chapter where memories were once broadcast across the airwaves.
