289 STREAM RD Ripley, ME 04930

This waterfront property on Sebasticook River has good internal access, distant westerly views, and recreational potential like hunting, snowmobiling, and ATV'ing. It also has public road frontage with power. The area is rural but not too far from Dexter, Skowhegan, and Newport at I-95. This 245-acre property has a lot to offer for many different tastes. There is approximately 1 mile of frontage on Sebasticook River Main Stream. The Sebasticook, known for great fishing, boating, and wildlife viewing, starts its journey and flows south and west for over 50 miles until it converges with the Kennebec River. Great Moose Lake, AKA Moose Pond, is 50 feet deep and 3,500 acres in size and just minutes away from public boat landings. This lot was selectively harvested three or so years ago, opening up great views to the north and west towards Sugarloaf. St Albans Mountain at 1,090' is just south of this lot and can easily be seen from a few locations, but most visibly from a 2+ acre beaver pond. It is a memorable view! Signs of wildlife are evident throughout the property. The wetlands associated with this lot create diverse habitats for numerous wildlife species. The highest point on this property is along Stream Road/Route 154, reaching an elevation of approximately 550 feet before sloping downward in a north & westerly direction, settling at an elevation of around 300 feet along the river. Taxes were only $495 for 2023 as the land is enrolled in the Maine Tree Growth Tax Law program.
