283 Shaw Road, Dover-Foxcroft, ME, 04426 | $1,450,000

Welcome to 283 Shaw Road—a rare opportunity to continue a 150-year family farming legacy across 204+/- acres of rolling pasture, woods, and working infrastructure. Currently operating as a cattle and sheep farm, the land is set up for rotational grazing and is fully supported by a water system fed by three wells. The first of three barns is wired for electricity and features three self-filling livestock waterers, a cattle headgate behind one of five oversized garage doors, and a concrete-floored grain room. Just beyond, you'll find a paddock, chute, and a right-of-way lane running through the pastures—perfect for moving cattle or accessing all sections of the farm via side-by-side or small truck. The second barn is a 30x70 hay barn with 14' sliding doors. The third, known as the pole barn, is the oldest structure on the farm with key modern upgrades. It houses the electric fencing system (covering 90 acres with 3-line fence and zone capability), an insulated water pump for winter chicken care, and a large concrete slab ideal for equipment repairs. Attached to this barn is a chicken house set up for approx. 100 birds. Spread across the property is a mix of fruit trees and cultivated perennials—including five varieties of apple trees, a black walnut tree, two patches of rhubarb, asparagus beds, and established raspberries and blueberries. Two ponds supply water for livestock and wildlife, and the back acreage offers 6+/- miles of ATV or horseback riding trails. The farmhouse sits elevated on the far end of the fields, offering sweeping views of the barns and pastureland. This property seamlessly blends time-honored farming tradition with modern systems—ready for you.
