Facing due south, this off-grid salt water farm occupies 207.6 acres at the tip of the Point of Main peninsula. This is one of the few remaining untouched coastal gems of Downeast Maine. Crowned by extensive cobblestone and sand beaches, the land is comprised of open pastures, wild blueberries, forest and heaths. Spruce and Fir trees adorn dramatic cliff tops and give way to woodland paths where one may walk guided always by the sound of ocean surf beyond the trees and mosses. This pristine acreage is held in easement by the Maine Farmland Trust to prevent development and subdivision (with the exception of the construction of one more primary residence). This salt water farm has been used for many years to pasture cattle and later sheep. This farmland could be certified organic should one choose to do so as no chemical application has been carried out on the property for more than a decade. The generations-old family home remains as the original builders intended; a tall, striking farmhouse, timbers unbowed, lines straight and true, a place of real peace, warmth and respite. The windows frame each sunrise and capture the colors of every sunset. Starlight is unimpeded here. On the Southeast horizon, the Libby Island Lighthouse illuminates her Atlantic seaways. The beauty and tranquility of this property is unsurpassed, and the history is rich. Preservation of this unique prize was, however, hard fought. A moving synopsis detailing this struggle is provided by the sellers within the property's informational package. Imagine the continuance of this stewardship as a generational family retreat or a corporate retreat, a thriving agri-forestry operation, a working livestock farm, or a simple respite for the soul. The current farmhouse is perfect for your retreat, your temporary abode while building your dream home, or your property manager's quarters.

A RARE FIND! This 18th century home remained in the same family for 200 years, and has had just 2 owners since. This remarkable home has borne witness to countless historic events and the early settlement and growth of the picturesque town of Machiasport. The breathtaking 180 degree water views include a birds-eye view of the historic village and, facing west over the water, the sunsets are legendary! This highly unique cape-style home exudes warmth and charm with its colorful, hand-painted interior decoration. The property is comprised of 3 adjacent waterfront lots totaling 24 acres, as well as a separate road-front 2.5 acre lot with a productive blueberry field (approximately 1 acre of blueberries). The land is truly stunning with acres of open pasture dotted with ancient apple trees rolling to the shoreline along the broad tidal estuary of the Machias River, and nature abounds as eagles, seals, and shorebirds fish the salty waters. There are easy to use steps down to the waterfront for canoeing/kayaking, and a perfect spot to moor a sailboat. A bonus is the long, peaceful walking trail through a magnificent sugar maple grove and spruce forest. Recent improvements include a new well, septic system, plumbing, electrical, and heating system, and all new architecturally appropriate Marvin windows. This house is located at the end of a town-maintained road that serves only 2 other homes. The extensive road and water frontage will ensure your future privacy, and this large property affords many possible building sites for future expansion. Truly, a treasure awaiting your enjoyment!

Seeking Nature not neighbors? What is your bliss? Dark skies, smell of saltwater and evergreens, privacy or just the peace and quiet from being far from city life? If the wild forest and raucous bay soothes you or enlightens, maybe it's time for a trip to Johnson Point. Not for the Starbucks crowd or the avid mall shopper as it is a long way to either. This is a more of a peace seeking, privacy oriented natural location. Located west of Bucks Harbor, close to Porcupine and Hog Islands and is backed by Narrows Mountain to the north. Little Kennebec Bay opens to Englishman Bay and beyond. Although very private the location is only 20 minutes to Machias. There you will find grocery stores, hospital, university and everything you would expect from the county seat of Washington County. The 15+ acres lot is neighboring Maine Heritage Land Trust. Two gates to enter the property and over 2000 feet of deep waterfront. Wooded with 2 paths to the shore, site planning is open. Three soil tests add leverage to the choice of home location. Gravel road and power are to the lot. The shore is 'Maine's rocky coast.' With elevations high above the water that protect any home from erosion from winter storms. Westerly views enhance the land. The surrounding area is populated by small villages and long stretches of woodland, farms, and blueberry barrens. A small airport in Machias is used by private planes. This exceptional property with 2000+ feet of deep-water frontage is a rare find indeed.
