This can be a great camp or year round home. It is fully insulated with spray foam insulation. It runs on solar power and comes with a generator. The interior needs some finish work like window trim, railings, etc. But can be lived in the way it is. Located on Piscataquis River just minutes from the interstate. Ideal location for hunting, fishing, atv's and snowmobiles. Not to mention great area for hunting. 30 minutes from Bangor and 10 minutes to Lincoln.
