A scan of current 04843 for-sale results shows a split market:
- Land and larger lots are a meaningful slice of visible inventory right now, including both smaller in-town lots and multi-acre parcels. The land asking prices shown range roughly from the low-$200Ks up to the mid-$400Ks.
- High-end homes and unique properties remain part of the mix, with some listings priced well above the local median (common in coastal Maine markets).
- Lower-cost entry points can pop up (sometimes via smaller homes or alternative housing types), but selection is limited and buyers should budget for inspections and potential repairs.
