Homes with 5 or More Acres for Sale in Washington County, ME

Search Washington County, ME Homes for Sale on 5 or More Acres

Washington County is the largest county in Maine by land area east of the Penobscot and one of the least densely settled, so acreage is ordinary rather than exceptional here. Parcels of five acres and up turn up in nearly every town, often as woodland with a house set back from the road, sometimes as former farmstead with open field, and along the blueberry barrens that run inland from the coast. Bold Coast Properties works these properties. Compare parcels on Washington County land.

Frequently Asked Questions

What do five-acre-plus properties in Washington County, ME look like?

Is land here often enrolled in Tree Growth or Open Space?

Maine's Tree Growth and Open Space current-use tax programs cover a great deal of woodland in this county. Enrollment carries management obligations and withdrawal penalties, so status should be verified per parcel.

Acreage appears throughout, including the inland towns north of Route 1 and the larger coastal towns such as Cherryfield, Columbia, Whiting, and Machias where lot sizes run larger away from the village centers.
