Stone walls, pines and mature hardwoods mix to envelope the outline of the open rolling fields that have nearly nine hundred feet of road frontage. This rare beauty has been meticulously cared for and hayed in cojunction with the Maine Coast Heritage Trust which would be happy to continue keeping that tradition alive though there are no conservations easements or restrictions on the property. The existing farm pond can be made more accessilbe for aesthetics and recreational use. Located just three miles from Camden Harbor with public ocean boat and beach access, Maine state park hiking trails and Megunticook Lake access for paddleing, kayaking and swimming. This is a rare opportunity to be a part of coastal Maine history through this renowned Camden property.
