Introducing a rare opportunity to own a true legacy property: 1,206± acres of pristine forestland spanning two towns, Eastbrook and Osborn, Maine. With approximately 930 acres located in Eastbrook and 276 acres in Osborn, this vast kingdom parcel offers unrivaled privacy, recreation, and long-term investment potential. Accessed via a 50-foot deeded right-of-way along Hardwood Hill Road, the property is set over 8,000 feet back from the main road, ensuring complete seclusion while still being within easy reach of services and amenities.

The land itself boasts a remarkable diversity of terrain, from rolling forests of mixed timber to expansive stretches along Timber Brook, offering over 2 miles of brook frontage, around 13,200 feet, including 9,700 feet that form a natural boundary. In one particularly scenic section, you even own both sides of the brook for approximately 3,500 feet, creating a uniquely private waterfront setting. The soils are primarily Hermon-Monadnock-Peru and Scantic-Lamoine-Peru complexes, fertile, stony soils ideal for forest management, intense grazing, recreation, and wildlife habitat.

With elevations ranging between 210 to 280 feet, the landscape presents a harmonious blend of gentle rises, hidden clearings, and old trail networks, including a stunning peninsula area along the marshlands that evokes a sense of true wilderness beauty. This property could easily serve as the foundation for a private family compound, a conservation-minded retreat, or a significant long-term timber investment.

Situated just 20 minutes from the full-service town of Ellsworth, owners enjoy immediate access to conveniences such as Northern Light Maine Coast Hospital, L.L. Bean Outlet, Hannaford Supermarket, Walmart, TJ Maxx, Home Depot, and a vibrant local dining scene. Ellsworth offers beloved staples like Helen’s Restaurant, known for homestyle meals and award-winning pies, and Union River Lobster Pot, famous for its fresh seafood and seasonal waterfront dining.

Finn’s Irish Pub offers traditional pub fare and live music, and 86 This! serves creative American cuisine perfect for casual evenings out. Martha’s Diner is another hidden gem popular among locals.

Ellsworth is also home to cultural attractions like the Downeast Scenic Railroad and several galleries, making it a lively hub for both everyday needs and leisure.

The land is also perfectly positioned between Bangor and Bar Harbor, with Bangor International Airport just an hour away for easy regional and national access. Bar Harbor, less than an hour’s drive, offers world-renowned attractions including Acadia National Park’s 150+ miles of hiking trails, Cadillac Mountain’s breathtaking sunrise views, and the historic charm of a downtown that has been a magnet for America’s elite for over a century. Bar Harbor is home to fine dining, yacht storage facilities, and the famed Kebo Valley Golf Club, Maine’s oldest golf course and one of the oldest in the United States.

Closer to home, Eastbrook itself is a peaceful rural town incorporated in 1837, known for its abundant natural beauty, rich river heritage, and close proximity to the Downeast Sunrise Trail, a multi-use recreation corridor spanning 86 miles through scenic Hancock and Washington counties.
