lot24-07 Medway Road Road, Mattawamkeag, ME, 04459 | $225,000

Located on the outskirts of Mattawamkeag, Maine, this surveyed 167 ± acre tract of timberland is a fantastic property for those seeking a secluded retreat or prime hunting grounds, especially for whitetail deer enthusiasts. The land was last commercially logged about 15 years ago and currently features a healthy and thriving inventory of timber, offering future opportunities for harvesting merchantable wood.
The property is accessed via Medway Road, a public highway with electrical utilities available at the street. While most of the acreage lies north of Medway Road, a 75-foot-wide strip of owned land extends southward, providing direct access to the Penobscot River, just downstream from Weldon Dam. This unique feature enhances the property's appeal with the potential for waterfront activities. Fishing in this section of the Penobscot will yield smallmouth bass and large landlocked salmon for the angler.
Historically, the land served multiple purposes, including as a gravel quarry and the site of a drive-in movie theater that operated from the 1950s until the 1980s. Remnants of the theater, such as elevated parking rows, remain visible and are now gradually being reclaimed by forest. Two former gravel quarries have transformed into spring-fed ponds of 2. 75 and 1. 25 acres, respectively. These ponds attract river otters and beavers and could easily be developed into private trout ponds.
Evidence of a thriving deer population is abundant, with rubs, scrapes, and tracks found throughout the property, particularly near the ponds and old theater site. This area, rich with oak trees producing ample acorns, serves as a primary feeding ground for deer. The property's diverse habitat also supports other wildlife such as turkey, river otters, and beavers, making it a haven for nature enthusiasts and hunters.
