Escape to your own piece of Maine wilderness with this cozy cabin set on 20 surveyed acres along the banks of B Stream in Houlton. Offering 550 feet of stream frontage, this property is a dream for outdoor enthusiasts, with endless opportunities to fish right from your land or hunt the abundant wildlife that call this area home. The cabin is equipped with power, a drilled well, and septic system, making it ready for comfortable stays. Inside, you'll find a functional kitchen, a full bathroom, and an electric fireplace that keeps the space warm during three seasons. With a more permanent heat source installed, this could easily become your year-round retreat. Located just 1 hour and 45 minutes from Bangor International Airport and 6.5 hours from Boston, this property is far enough away for true peace and quiet yet close enough for long weekend getaways. Houlton, the county seat of Aroostook County, is known for its welcoming community, Houlton Farms Dairy, and its rich recreational offerings including fishing, hunting, ATVing, and snowmobiling on ITS 86, a major trail drawing thousands of sledders each winter. For even more adventure, East Grand Lake and its surrounding waterways are less than 30 miles away, while the north entrance to Baxter State Park is within 50 miles, giving you direct access to some of Maine's best hiking, camping, and wildlife viewing. Whether you're seeking a seasonal hunting and fishing base or a quiet future homestead, 176 Front Ridge Road is ready to help you build your Maine dream.
