M3L71 Kennebunk Road

Alfred, ME 04002

This +/-47-acre tract in York County, Maine offers private, wooded acreage that borders U.S. Forest Service land on two sides. For a buyer looking to own ground next to public land, with room to hunt, hike, and manage timber without a neighbor pressing in from every direction, this is a hard setup to find this close to the coast and to Portland. Access is via a deeded right-of-way, located on the opposite side of the road from 419 Kennebunk Rd, Alfred, Maine. Electric service runs along the road, but bringing power onto the property would require a Special Use Permit, something a buyer planning improvements should factor into their timeline and budget. The property was logged roughly 20 years ago. The harvest left a scattering of mature oaks and pines standing, and the interior of the parcel has since regrown, primarily in pine. The result is a mostly wooded tract with a mix of age classes, the kind of structure that tends to hold deer well, and good deer sign has been observed on the property. Several old logging trails remain throughout the property and could be reclaimed for access, stand sites, or future management work. Carlisle Brook runs through the parcel. It is not confined to a defined channel here, and in the spring the area functions as a wetland with vernal pool characteristics, adding seasonal water and habitat diversity to the tract. Beyond the recreational value, this is a property with long-term hold potential. Bordering national forest land gives it a buffer that most private parcels can't offer, and 47 acres in York County, within reasonable reach of Sanford, Kennebunk, Biddeford, and Portland, is the kind of holding that can serve as a hunting camp, a timber investment, or simply a piece of Maine woods to own for years to come. Whether the draw is the adjoining public land, the brook and vernal pool habitat, the regenerating timber, or simply the chance to hold acreage in a part of Maine where large wooded tracts don't come up ofte
