    Perfect property for a vacation house or a pied a terre. I was waiting for you to show what's on the other side of the property, - the one that is wooded. and on the other side of the road. It might be good to build another living accommodation on that side, bring n some small livestock like chicken and pigs and plant fruit trees.

    Of course, back in 1950, that lot was going for about $5,000 ... A simular home on an acre was about $15,000. God's country for sure. Maine's Lake Country, Mt Katahdin and Baxter state park only a few minutes away :)> I have relatives not too far away. Looks like you could have a boat dock there :)> If I was still a young person with $$ I would buy it. The only down side is very few jobs in the area. Which is why I had to leave "heaven" and go live in the real world:(

    • @richardtheriault7624
      @richardtheriault7624 18 годин тому +3

      That is true, but also in 1950, you couldn't even buy that lot. The waterfront land in that area was leased from Webber. The land was only available for purchase in the 1980's when HC Haynes purchased the Webber holdings in the area.

    Why do you pay taxes when you live in an unorganized territory?

    • @richardtheriault7624
      @richardtheriault7624 20 годин тому +5

      Because there is no escaping the tax man. The state collects the taxes and negotiates with local towns for things like fire and police protection, as well as paying tuition to schools for any children living in unorganized areas for their education.
