Greater Maine
From Bar Harbor's Acadia National Park to mile-high Mt. Khatadin in Baxter State Park, Maine is a diverse state with something for everybody.  Nestled between forest-covered mountains and spectacular rugged coast, Maine is a great location for a second home.  Featuring unspoiled landscapes, beautiful vistas, succulent lobster, stately lighthouses, outdoor adventures and exceptional shopping.  From mountains to lakes, city to country, inland to coast, nature to nightlife. Seascapes and cityscapes blend harmoniously in Maine, perched on a peninsula, jutting out into island-studded Casco Bay.

The metropolitan hub of Maine's south coast region, Portland is a lively city incorporating the character of yesteryear into a modern urban environment. Historic architecture blends gracefully with the new as you stroll along her working waterfront or the cobblestone streets of the restored Old Port section of the city. 

Maine's history and economy have been linked to vast timber reserves and to the Atlantic Ocean. The abundance of timber served the state well as Maine became noted for its shipbuilding in colonial times. The first ship built and launched in western hemisphere was the Virginia launched in 1607. Shipbuilding continued to flourish in Maine as the manufacture of wooden ships gave way to iron and steel.

The towns of Bar Harbor, Northeast Harbor, Southwest Harbor, Bass Harbor, Ellsworth and Blue Hill, including the outlying islands of Cranberry and Swan's all have great real estate. Maine has a vast selection of properties from country or village settings to exclusive oceanfront and lakefront properties to remote pristine islands.
