A level of solitude that can take years to find resides here. This 6 acre wooded parcel lies directly across a quiet gravel road from Branch Lake, one of the finer fresh water bodies in Hancock County. Access to Branch is afforded via deeded rights to a 100' lake lot, complete with parking and dock. This deeded lake access is a short walk away and shared with only 4 other lots. Beyond the incredible seclusion and recreational lake access on offer, the 6 acre lot is thickly wooded, with natural habitat all around, and provides existing infrastructure of a 540'+/- driveway, 3 power poles & lines installed and a septic leach field already on site that is sized for a 3 bedroom home plus a 1 bedroom apartment (design & inspection report available). The boundaries are also freshly surveyed. The rear of the property abuts conserved Ellsworth Public Forest, ensuring that the wild surrounds stay very much wild. The build site being high & dry allows for optimal home placement. Located in the private ''Phillips Way'' neighborhood, this surrounding rural community is one of the most desirable and organized on Branch Lake. Located about half way between Ellsworth & Bangor, city amenities are in either direction with the treasures Acadia National Park being about a 45 minute drive. Enjoy living on Branch Lake at a fraction of the cost with this forested home site. Be sure to check out the video tour that walks you all around the property and down to the lake access.
