M40L85 Lyons Road, Lubec, ME, 04652

Located on a private road, this 5.2-acre parcel offers 485' on Morrison Cove and abuts conservation Land. Great location for a summer home or forever home! The property offers easterly views over the cove. An offshore island can be reached at low tide or a short kayak paddle at high tide. The wooded lot has a variety of apple trees, cedar, spruce, and other evergreens. The land is fairly level until you reach the shore on the northern end and it rises slightly to a high point. A natural rain gully helps drain the water during heavy spring runoffs or summer storms. There are a few open areas scattered throughout the lot. Lubec is a traditional fishing village and is the easternmost town in the United States. Formerly the home to a large sardine industry, the town now plays host to the Regional Medical Center as well as local fishermen and lobstermen. Lubec's downtown area boasts large homes built by sea captains and industry leaders and quaint restaurants and shops. The public boat launch, Fisherman's Memorial Park, and the breakwater are all within walking distance from each other. Watch the seals frolic in the tidal current, the fishermen as they head out for their daily catch, or just relax on one of the granite benches overlooking the waterfront. Lubec, and its surrounding area, is also home to over 43,000 acres of public and preserved lands open to the public for hiking, biking, kayaking, canoeing, and other low-impact recreational activities. Nearby is the Downeast Sunrise Trails which is an 85-mile trail built along a former rail corridor from Washington Junction in Hancock to Ayers Junction in Pembroke. It has a compact gravel base and is ideal for snowmobiling, ATVing, walking, bicycling, cross-country skiing, and horseback riding. Washington County is a lot of things. It is the most gorgeous, has the deepest cargo port, the longest coastline including the Bold Coast, the highest tides, and produces the most lobster and clam landings.
