Description

This remarkable ±194-acre mountainside property—comprising two adjoining tax parcels—offers outstanding privacy, panoramic views, and convenient access to western Maine's premier outdoor destinations. Elevations range from roughly 1,240 feet along the western boundary to a 1,775-foot peak near the center, just seven feet below Mt. Dimmock's summit, less than half a mile away. Dramatic ledge outcrops on the southern and western slopes provide sweeping views toward Sunday River and Howard Pond. Harvested around 2012, the land now supports a vigorous young mixed forest of hardwoods—white birch, maple, aspen, and beech—with scattered pine, fir, and spruce. Former skid trails remain visible, offering a natural framework for future roads or recreational trails. Access is via an unimproved, wooded 60-foot-wide deeded right-of-way (±1,000 feet long) leading to the southwest corner of the ±43-acre, so-called Chadbourne Lot (Map R2 Lot 18). The adjacent ±151-acre, so-called Mt. Dimmock Lot (Map R2 Lot 15) extends up the western slope of Mt. Dimmock. Only the Mt. Dimmock Lot is enrolled in Maine's Tree Growth Tax Program (plan not yet located). There is no power on site, preserving its quiet, off-grid character. Located off Howard Pond Road, the land is just minutes from pristine Howard Pond (±109 acres, 118 feet deep, hand-carry boat launch) and ten minutes from the Androscoggin River. The Howard Pond Overlook/Woodman's Trail lies roughly 200 feet from the southwest boundary. With Sunday River and Black Mountain ski areas, Grafton Notch State Park, and the towns of Bethel and Andover nearby, this is an exceptional opportunity for recreation, forestry, or a secluded western-Maine retreat. Taxes for 2025 are $1,876.
