Tucked away in the peaceful woods of Amherst, Maine, this meticulously built cabin sits on three and a half private acres with stream frontage—your own serene retreat just off Route 9. A small driveway needs to be built or a short walk through the trees leads you to a perfectly placed cottage, thoughtfully crafted with pride and care.
Surrounded by nature, this off-grid getaway offers the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle, yet remains close to power and just a short drive to town conveniences. The cabin features a well-maintained his and hers privy and a sturdy woodshed, with room to upgrade the property by adding a well and septic system if desired.
Whether you're seeking a quiet weekend retreat, a rustic base for outdoor adventures, or a future homestead in the Maine woods, this spot is ready to welcome you. With a beautiful setting, stream frontage, and endless potential, this hidden gem is a rare find.
