Looking at the mls for sold properties and current available properties, they don't need to think it is a steal. It is the best deal by a large margin on the market today in Maine for a waterfront log property. There are 3 season camps on .15 acres selling for $400k+ in the greater northern Penobscot region.

I completely disagree did you see that it comes with 11 acres of land. And look at the taxes I think it would have been less before the pandemic but I think the price is fair for a three bedroom one bathroom with 11 acres lakefront access. Did he say no water because I see sinks everywhere there's no well? So I don't understand what you're talking about no water how would the toilet work. Why don't you just be quiet.

What a beautiful property. At that price point, I would expect a bit more for water and power but what it has would certainly work for my needs as I would spend most of my time on the lake or trails anyway.

It is a great property. Excellent water frontage, and a solid log home. It just looks great.

I ask a question because I really don't have an answer. The question is this, is it really safe to use lake water? Would you have to boil the water to drink it? Taking a shower in lake water. In addition to the price of the cabin what would it cost to drill for a water source?

@richardtheriault7624

2 ай бұрын

Well for washing dishes, taking a shower, using the toilet lake water is fine. For drinking I would use bottled water. I have drank water out of a stream and lake in the past and I am sure many people have. Lake drawn water is a quite common water source for cabins in Maine. A new well currently runs around $8-10,000.

No, you have not paid attention to the real estate market. You know a case in point. When I was in high school around 1981/82, I purchased a 1969 Camaro. It was not all original, but was a solid car, had a 427 and a 4 speed. I paid $1000 cash money for the car, which was a lot for a kid in high school and a fair price for that car at that time. Today that car is at least $30,000, if I could find one in similar condition. More than likely if I could find one it would be priced closer to $50k.

OFF GRID??

This is beautiful and such a find I would try to find a way to get CMP access I'm sure it would be arduous but it is stunning at the very least I would increase the battery capacity and try to cut down on all the propane. I absolutely loved it.

You know a friend of mine has been selling a ton of power cabinets for off-grid cabins. Basically it consists of some combination of lithium batteries and an inverter inside of a water tight cabinet. You wire it up and run a generator to top off the batteries. Then you run off the storage until you need to recharge the batteries again. Each battery stores 5kwhr of power. The whole set up is eligible for the 30% federal tax credit as an energy storage device.
