![]()
In Episode 4 of the Lone Pine Real Estate Co. Podcast, we take you behind the sign at one of Midcoast Maine’s most iconic properties: Morgan’s Mill at 168 Payson Road in Union. Joined by owner Richard Morgan, we explore the past, present, and future of this historic mill—and uncover what makes it such a unique opportunity for the right buyer.
A Legacy of History

Morgan’s Mill has stood as a cornerstone of Union since the 1800s. Once a bustling hub for grain grinding and head stones, the property carries with it stories of craftsmanship, hard work, and local connection.
Reimagining the Future

While Morgan’s Mill is steeped in history, its future is filled with potential. Richard and Rachael discuss how the property could be transformed into a variety of uses—artist studios, a Grain, farm-to-table dining, or even a mixed-use development blending residential, retail, and community spaces. With its spacious layout, character-rich architecture, and waterfront access, the possibilities are as diverse as they are inspiring.
The Right Steward

So, who is the perfect buyer for Morgan’s Mill? Richard envisions someone who cares about the stewardship of the property and the community that surrounds it. The property could be a developer with an eye for adaptive reuse, an entrepreneur seeking a one-of-a-kind setting, or a community-minded investor ready to create something meaningful for Union.
