Rarely does an opportunity like this come along! Located off Matamiscontis Road in Howland, this exceptional 4.62± acre parcel features waterfrontage on TWO different water sources, creating a truly unique setting for the outdoor enthusiast. The property includes over 420 feet of owned waterfrontage on the Penobscot River, and another 275 feet on Little Gordon Brook. That means water on two sides of the property and an incredible amount of shoreline to explore, fish, kayak, canoe, or simply enjoy. The Penobscot River through Howland is particularly well known for its excellent smallmouth bass fishing, while the surrounding waterways add even more opportunity for anglers and paddlers. The property already has a driveway, a nice gravel pad suitable for a camper, and some clearing in place, making it well suited for a seasonal camp, camper or RV setup. Private gated access provides an added level of privacy and security. This is a special piece of Maine real estate where you can pull in, set up camp, and immediately begin enjoying the outdoors. Direct access to the ATV trail system puts miles of riding right at your fingertips, while the area's snowmobile trail network is also nearby. Spend your days fishing the river, paddling the waterways, exploring the trails, hiking the surrounding woods, or simply relaxing beside the water. Howland is a well-established outdoor recreation destination with public access to both the Penobscot and Piscataquis Rivers and a long-standing reputation for fishing, hunting, ATVing and snowmobiling. With its private gated setting, existing driveway and camper pad, 4.62± acres, and an extraordinary 695± feet of combined owned waterfrontage across the Penobscot River, and Little Gordon Brook, this is an extremely rare find. If you're looking for a recreational property that puts you right in the middle of northern Maine's renowned outdoor lifestyle, this one deserves a close look
