Private Presentation

Brambletye

6 East Road  ·  Greenville, Maine

Dear Steven & Leslie,

Thank you for taking the time to view this presentation we prepared especially for Brambletye. This website is designed to tell your property’s story to the right audience — developers and investors who will recognize its extraordinary potential.

Every element — the imagery, the narrative, the structure — is fully customizable. We can also prepare a companion presentation tailored to the lifestyle buyer, emphasizing the estate’s character and setting rather than its development opportunity.

We welcome any thoughts you have — on content, photos, emphasis, or anything else. This is your presentation, and we are here to make it exactly right.

Key Highlights

  • 265 contiguous acres in the Moosehead Lake region — one of Maine's premier four-season destinations
  • Fully operational 9-hole course, par 36, with complete Rainbird irrigation and a direct expansion path to 18 holes through the adjacent undeveloped northern parcel (Parcel 7-5, 150± acres)
  • 15,470 sq ft of estate buildings including an English Tudor main residence built in 1938 and masterfully renovated
  • Indoor riding arena, 14-stall stable, carriage house, tennis court, gazebo bar, 7 ponds — a complete private club amenity package operational today

  • No private club or comparable development exists anywhere in the Moosehead Lake market

"Greenville has drawn high-net-worth buyers and sportsmen since the early 1900s. The region has never had a private club. Brambletye is the only site where that changes."

Location & Market

A Region Without
a Private Club

Greenville and Moosehead Lake aerial
Greenville & Moosehead Lake

Greenville sits at the southern tip of Moosehead Lake, one of the largest freshwater lakes east of the Mississippi, in a region that has attracted high-net-worth buyers, sportsmen, and outdoor enthusiasts for over a century.

Out-of-state buyers from Massachusetts, Connecticut, and New York consistently drive demand in this market. They come for the fishing, hunting, snowmobiling, floatplane access, and the particular sense of scale that only a place like this can offer. What they have not been able to find is a private club to anchor their time here. That gap is the opportunity.

The market itself continues to perform. Two properties sold above $1.5M in Greenville during winter 2024/25 — historically the slowest season — reflecting demand that is sustained rather than seasonal. Golf and private club membership nationally are at record levels. The timing for this concept, in this location, is strong.

Property Overview

What Exists
on the Ground Today

The replacement value of Brambletye's existing infrastructure runs into the tens of millions. A developer acquires all of it at land value.

Complete Rainbird 700 irrigation system with full documentation on file. A hypothetical back-9 routing through the adjacent undeveloped northern parcel has already been mapped and is in the document package.

  • 9 holes, par 36, 2,650 yards — fully playable today
  • Complete Rainbird 700 irrigation, all holes
  • Dual controllers, pump manifold, dedicated well

Aerials & Maps

The Property
at Every Scale

From high-altitude regional context to parcel-level satellite detail, the full map package tells the complete story of this property. Topographic contours reveal the natural drainage and elevation that shaped the golf course. Property line overlays clarify parcel structure and road frontage. Development concept layers show hypothetical lot networks and golf expansion routing — giving a developer a concrete framework to build from rather than a blank canvas.

All map layers are available individually in the document package as high-resolution files.

Development Concept

The Vision on Paper

A hypothetical development concept has already been prepared showing a full build-out with 70+ residential lots, expanded golf, and road network. These are illustrative, not regulatory approvals — but they give a developer something concrete to react to rather than imagining from scratch.

More detailed plans can be produced using the Knickerbocker Group's existing subdivision study. Available to qualified parties on request.

Development Concepts

Four Ways to Look
at This Opportunity

These are not formal proposals. They are a starting point — a way of showing the range of what this site makes possible. The right developer will likely combine elements or bring something entirely their own.

Option A

Private Country Club

Convert the estate into a membership club anchored by the golf course. No comparable private club exists anywhere in the Moosehead Lake region.

  • Golf and social membership model
  • Clubhouse in existing estate
  • Expand to 18 holes via undeveloped parcel
  • Equestrian, tennis, pool as amenities
  • Restaurant addition to the main structure
Option B

Resort & Hospitality

A boutique destination resort drawing on Moosehead Lake's decades of acclaim as a world-class outdoor destination.

  • Boutique inn or lodge in existing residence
  • Spa, wellness, and fitness programming
  • Wedding, retreat, and event venue
  • Golf, equestrian, fishing, outdoor experiences
  • Destination restaurant
Option C

Residential Development

A luxury residential community where every homeowner has immediate access to a private golf course, riding trails, and club facilities.

  • 70+ estate lots across undeveloped parcels
  • Golf course expansion through parcel
  • Conservation subdivision with open space
  • HOA structure around existing amenities
  • Equestrian-focused community option
Option D

Mixed-Use Master Plan

A master-planned development combining private club, residential lots, and resort hospitality with phased execution and multiple exit strategies.

  • Private club at estate core
  • Residential lots across undeveloped parcels
  • Boutique hotel or inn component
  • Revenue from existing facilities from day one
  • Multiple exit strategies across components

The course, the stable, the pool, the residence — these take decades and tens of millions to build from scratch. A developer at Brambletye begins from a position of extraordinary advantage.

The Numbers
Worth Knowing

Land & Value Context

Total Acreage 265 acres across 5 parcels
Undeveloped Land ~175 acres (150-ac Parcel 7-5 + 25-ac Parcel 8-1B)
Conceptual Lot Yield 70+ residential lots (hypothetical)
Golf Expansion Parcel 7-5 (150± ac) is directly adjacent — back-9 concept already mapped
Land Comparables Non-waterfront rural Maine development land: $2,000–$8,000+/acre; premium sites command significant uplift
Replacement Cost Golf course irrigation alone: $500K–$2M+ new; full estate infrastructure represents tens of millions
Prior Listing Property previously listed at $12,850,000

The Case in Plain Terms

The financial case for Brambletye is not just about the land. It is about what a developer avoids: years of entitlement work, millions in infrastructure, and the operational uncertainty of building a golf course, equestrian program, and club facilities from zero.

The undeveloped parcels provide lot yield and upside. The existing estate provides the amenity anchor that drives lot premiums and absorption pace. These two work together in a way that neither does alone.

"The 70-lot community concept is on paper. The golf course is in the ground. The clubhouse is in brick and slate. Very few development opportunities begin from this position."

Comparable Projects

This Model Has Worked Before

The Greenbrier Sporting Club
Private Golf Community

The Greenbrier Sporting Club

White Sulphur Springs, WV. A historic estate converted into a private sporting club with residential lots integrated around the course. Existing infrastructure made the development economics viable at a scale that new construction could not have justified.

Willowbend, Cape Cod
Golf & Equestrian

Willowbend, Cape Cod

Mashpee, MA. A private golf and equestrian club community in the Northeast with residential lots built around the course. Demonstrates the absorption potential and the premiums lot buyers will pay for direct amenity adjacency in a New England market.

Sunday River, Maine
Rural Maine Development

Sugarloaf & Sunday River

Maine's ski resort communities prove that rural Maine can support master-planned, amenity-anchored residential development at scale. Moosehead offers a comparable or superior natural setting with a four-season program.
