Sitting just 4 miles from downtown Kingfield, with 2,700' of frontage on Route 27 and power at the road, this lot (Map 11, Lot 011) is prime for building. Whether you choose to build on this property or just enjoy the raw land, you will get beautiful views of the surrounding river valley from this property's sloping hillside which holds up to 900' in elevation. Making this plot extra special is the 1,000' of frontage it holds on Reed Brook. While it may not sound like a storied stream of water, Reed Brook is a pretty big deal -- Reed Brook is the waterbody that flows east from Shiloh Pond into the Carrabassett River, thereby tying two of Kingfield's most predominant and high-quality water resources together! In March of 2021, the town of Kingfield announced that it purchased the 19-acre Shiloh Pond, along with 196 surrounding acres, to create the Kingfield Community Forest! This is Kingfield's first publicly owned plot of land, and it guarantees public access to 215 acres of woods and waters for generations to come. Given that about 90% of land in Maine is privately owned, it is really unique to have such a large tract of public land for people to fish, hunt, and recreate on forever...especially just minutes from your backyard! Couple that with the fact that the Carrabassett River, a mountain river with its headwaters on the flank of nearby Sugarloaf Mountain, flows just minutes from your front yard, and you're sitting on a freshwater hotbed! For good measure, it should also be noted that there is a stunning WATERFALL (Jericho Steps Falls) that cascades into small plunge pools, perfect for summer swimming, just yards beyond this land's boundary!
