Improved Land for Sale in Strong, Maine
890 Salem Rd, Strong, ME 04983
Tucked away on over 100 private acres in picturesque Freeman Township, this one-of-a-kind Craftsman home offers a true Maine retreat with endless possibilities. Whether you're seeking a peaceful escape, year-round residence, a homesteader's dream, or a unique business opportunity location, this exceptional property delivers privacy, character, and unmatched access to outdoor recreation. Nature lovers will appreciate the abundance of activities right at their doorstep--hike scenic trails, hunt the expansive acreage, fish nearby waters, ski at Sugarloaf or Saddleback, and enjoy easy access to ITS 89 snowmobile trails. From the inviting windowed porch, take in breathtaking mountain views of Sugarloaf and Mt. Abram, where unforgettable sunsets paint the landscape. Rich in history and craftsmanship, the home features thoughtfully reclaimed materials that celebrate Maine's heritage. Treasured pieces from the historic North Anson barn include sliding doors, hardware, black slate, a linen closet door, laundry bins, and hard pine match-finish lumber. Charming tin ceilings were salvaged from the former Barnstone & Osgood Jewelry store in Lewiston, while pine harvested from the property's own plantation was used for ceiling rafters, joists, and kitchen cabinetry. Even the shaft bed center bearings tell a story--repurposed from the Sugarloaf gondola. The expansive acreage offers incredible potential for gardening, animals, recreation, and self-sufficient living, making this property a true homesteader's dream. Its location near year-round recreation also presents exciting possibilities for an outdoor-focused business opportunity or retreat. With over five garage spaces, there is ample room for vehicles, equipment, and recreational toys.
