7 Fenderson Road, Ashland, ME 04732

Clayton Brook Forest is a 152 ½ acre parcel of surveyed forest land that is for sale. The property is a fantastic buy and hold parcel as a recreational timberland investment. It has everything the recreational land buyer is looking for which is privacy, good access, merchantable timber, a water feature, recreational opportunities and finally access to utility power. Access to the property is along the town maintained Fenderson Road. There is approximately 1456± feet of road frontage along the roadway. Fenderson Road ends approximately ¾ of a mile beyond the property and there is only one year-round residence at the end of the road beyond the parcel. With only one residence at the end of the road there will be very little traffic most of the year. There are large tracts of farmland surrounding the property, so you will have activity when crops are planted and harvested. Access to the interior of the lot is benefitted by an existing 3800-foot-long winter road, that could be upgraded to provide access to a home or cabin site on the property. The tract of land has been logged in the past, but still has a good mix of both young and merchantable timber. A recent walk through the property highlighted a good amount of spruce, fir, pine and aspen trees of merchantable size. In addition to the aforementioned species there is a good amount of both white cedar and tamarack growing in areas along Clayton Brook. Tamarack is a deciduous tree with needles. Its name comes from the Algonquin Indian language and translates to ''wood used for snow shoes.'' The water feature on this property is extensive. There is over 3900 feet of brook frontage. Clayton Brook runs right down the middle of the property. About midway along its path, there is a small pond of 3/4th of an acre. The pond is an ideal location to observe one of the resident moose on a hot summer's day. Clayton Brook is a trout stream and tributary of Scopan Stream which terminates in Scopan Lake.
