Property Description
Tucked away on a quiet lane in the small town of Clifton, Maine, 40 Smith Lane offers a rare opportunity to enjoy true privacy, peaceful wooded surroundings, and easy access to outdoor adventure—all while staying within commuting distance of Bangor/Brewer and Ellsworth. This charming 2-bedroom, 1-bath ranch-style home sits on over 9 acres of heavily forested land with nearly 2,000 feet of road frontage. Here, you can't see a neighbor in sight, and the only sounds you're likely to hear are the birdsong and wind in the pines.
Built in 1994, the home features natural white cedar siding and offers 1,220 square feet of comfortable one-floor living. It was thoughtfully designed with efficiency in mind, offering three sources of heat—a Vermont Castings wood stove, LP gas direct vent heating, and heat pump—with low annual cost to operate. An on-demand hot water system also helps keep utility costs down, and the drilled well and private septic provide self-sufficiency year-round. A Starlink dish is included with the sale for dependable and fast internet.
The comfortable living space has an open floor plan from the cooks kitchen, dining area and living room and adjoining pantry/laundry area. A sliding glass door accesses a deck on the back of the home.
Outside, you'll find a rugged 28x32 post-and-beam garage with 8 foot overhead power doors, RV power hookup, storage loft, and a 7KW generator port wired into the home. Three additional sheds offer more storage, and there's even an outdoor shower—perfect for rinsing off after a day working the garden beds.
Deeded access to pristine 442-acre Hopkins Pond means you're just a short walk from trout fishing, paddling, or swimming in one of the region's most beautiful freshwater spots. And if you're looking for even more outdoor adventure, Eagles Bluff, Peaked Mountain, and Amherst Community Forest offer hiking, rock climbing, ATV riding, and wildlife watching all close by.
