This house lot is right on the outskirts of Calais, this 1.7-acre lot offers privacy in a quiet neighborhood while keeping everything you need close at hand. With 178 feet of road frontage, it's an easy property to access, and its wooded setting gives you the option to carve out your own spot without neighbors crowding in.
The St. Croix River defines life in Calais. Flowing more than 100 miles from East Grand Lake to Passamaquoddy Bay, it forms the international border with Canada and has shaped the region's history since the lumber and shipping days of the 1800s. Today, it provides public boat launches, scenic walks, and fishing opportunities right in town. From Calais, you can follow the river south into the bay and out toward the Atlantic, or simply enjoy it from the 1.5-mile Waterfront Walkway downtown.
Coastal recreation is everywhere. Whitlocks Mill Light, Maine's northernmost lighthouse, sits on the river just north of town. Devils Head Conservation Area offers 318 acres of trails and a 340-foot summit overlooking the St. Croix. Moosehorn National Wildlife Refuge protects more than 20,000 acres in Calais alone, with over 50 miles of trails and interior roads to explore. A very unique must see!
For daily needs, Calais has it covered: Calais Regional Hospital, Washington County Community College, IGA, Walmart, Tradewinds Shop 'n Save, Marden's, Hammond Lumber, Tractor Supply, and multiple auto parts stores. Dining options range from Dunkin and McDonald's to more than a dozen local restaurants. And when you need to cross the border, the Canadian port of entry is right in town.
If you want down east living, this is a great and affordable opportunity.
