1087 W Mills Rd Industry, ME 04938

From this extremely unique one-of-a-kind property, the Village of West Mills adopted and still bears his name. In 1798, Captain Peter West built a large grist and sawmill on this land, and an abundance of remnants of the mill remain. The waterfall that was used to turn the 20 foot water wheel has an elevation drop of 35 feet, and at it's base lies a huge pool 60 feet around which is great for swimming, fishing and gold panning. There are two (twin) enormous granite and rock walls over 6 feet wide and 30 feet tall that tower over the waterfall. The foundation still has a large stone walk through doorway. This parcel has long frontage on both sides of the stream which encompasses the old mill site and the waterfall in it's entirety. The building lots on either side of the waterfall have been improved with drilled wells and septic systems. The barn like structure which is 24 X 48 with an addition has a 200 amp service and is partly finished ( in progress). This would make a great home or business location. The grounds of both lots are beautifully landscaped with flowering trees and perennials. Year round, the sights and sounds of this incredible property are ever changing and a true spectacle. There are numerous pools and small waterfalls along the stream, which is spring fed and crystal clear. The stream carries an abundance of native brook trout, which, with a patient eye, can be seen trying to climb the waterfall in late fall to spawn. This gorgeous land has been a favorite for photographers and history lovers alike. The possibilities for this property are endless and the beauty is unmatched. Come see and experience it for yourself. Truly one of a kind. Can be purchased with MLS#1530058 for $359,000.
