Description
Located along Waters Road in the historic community of Patten, Maine, this 146-acre timberland tract offers an exceptional opportunity for investors and outdoor enthusiasts alike. Actively managed for decades, this property has been meticulously improved as a timber-producing estate, with over 1,200 feet of road frontage on the paved Waters Road.
Originally a productive potato farm until the 1970s, this land was transformed in the early 1980s into a highly productive timberland. Under the expertise of licensed Maine foresters, the owner planted 50,000 spruce seedlings, establishing thriving stands of White, Black, and Norway spruce. Today, these trees boast an impressive volume, with some stands yielding approximately 30-40 cords per acre after 40 years of growth.
In addition to the 50 acres of spruce plantations, the property features over 90 acres of naturally regenerating timber stands. Here, you'll find mature cedar logs, maple, white and yellow birch, aspen, along with additional spruce and fir, contributing to the diverse and valuable timber inventory.
Ten years ago, a thoughtful investment was made on a 2-acre section of land surrounding a small farm pond. Previously unproductive and covered in dogwood, this area was planted with white oak and black spruce seedlings, which are now flourishing. As these trees mature, they will provide not only high-quality timber but also acorns for the local whitetail deer population, enhancing the property's appeal for wildlife enthusiasts.
A recent selective harvest on 25 acres of the property was conducted in July. Post-harvest, the cleared road was planted with white and red clovers and daikon radish, serving both as a cover crop and a food plot for deer. Trails were also cleared, leading to the old apple orchards, the farm pond oak grove, and the serene cedar forest at the back of the property.

5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageKMHS has endured multiple changes placed on the school by previous administration. In the past 7 years, we have worked to create a more rigorous education for our students developing a more hands on engaging classroom environment. KMS developed an Outdoor Education Program that provided an active outlet for kids who needed to move. That program is still running and is now K - 12. Our kids are great - they are typical teenagers. They have the same issues as every other school. The environment can often be chaotic, but that is only because we are often dancing to meet the social and mental needs of these same students. IT IS IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER, TEACHERS AREN'T JUST TEACHERS ANY LONGER. THEY ARE MENTORS, SOCIAL WORKERS, EXTENDED FAMILY, A SHOULDER, AND MORE OFTEN THAN NOT, A SAFETY NET FOR THESE KIDS. We love our kids, we love our school!!! Check out what we are learning every day.Teacher Review3y ago - Katahdin Elementary School

3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI have had the pleasure of substituting at this school and been involved in many of the meetings made available to the public. The principal takes pride in her school and what the student's academic achievement levels are. She takes extra steps to ensure a proper education for all of her students. The programs that are available are fantastic.Other Review15y ago
