If you've been dreaming of a quiet escape in Maine, far enough away for total peace and privacy but close enough to town for everyday convenience, you’ll want to see this. Tucked away on the shores of Crooked Pond in Lincoln, Maine, this recently built two-bedroom, one-bathroom off-grid cabin sits on 5.16 surveyed acres and boasts an impressive 1,350± feet of private lake frontage.
Accessed easily from town yet feeling a world apart, the property is located just 6.3 miles from downtown Lincoln, a full-service community with restaurants, shopping, health care, and entertainment. Lincoln is known for its abundance of water — 13 lakes, the Penobscot River, and miles of snowmobile and ATV trails that make it a true four-season recreational destination. The area is a hub for outdoor adventure and relaxation alike, with nearby golf courses, public forestlands open for recreation, and convenient access to Bangor International Airport about an hour away.
The cabin is thoughtfully positioned for privacy and lake views. Measuring approximately 24 x 32 feet and built on a slab with a two-foot crawl space, the home offers about 768 square feet of interior living space, plus an 8 x 24 screened porch perfect for summer evenings. Inside you'll find two bedrooms, a full bath with washer/dryer hookup, and open concept living with laminate and vinyl flooring. The home is being sold furnished with a few exceptions, making it move-in ready.
This off-grid property has modern comforts thanks to a solar power system that includes three 285-watt solar panels, three 120Ah batteries, a Vertamex 3000-watt inverter, and an 80 Amp Outback charge controller. A 2.35 KW portable generator adds backup power. Water is supplied by a drilled well, and there’s a septic system already in place. A 12 x 20 shed houses the power equipment and offers additional storage. Down by the shore, you'll find a 30-foot dock (composed of 20 feet of aluminum and 10 feet of red cedar), which is easily removable for winter storage.
The waterfront is a major highlight — over 1,300 feet of frontage including a unique, protected peninsula that would be ideal for a picnic spot, screen tent, or temporary shelter. Crooked Pond offers 220 surface acres and reaches depths of up to 30 feet, and it connects to Folsom Pond, giving you access to an additional 282 acres of water. These lakes are known for trophy smallmouth and largemouth bass, peaceful paddling, and boating.
If you’re seeking a private lakeside cottage that offers sustainable living without sacrificing comfort or access, this property delivers. With 2025 property taxes of $1,982, this Maine cabin could be your dream retreat. Call today for your private showing!
