5 Design-Forward Estates in Maine and Connecticut Above $1M
Across Maine’s coast and lake country and into Connecticut’s wooded acreage near New Haven, this quintet shares a devotion to architecture as a way of living. A final custom build in an intimate enclave, a magazine-featured contemporary estate, a locally sourced timber-frame retreat, a Cape Neddick mid-century modern with ocean views, and a Bauhaus-inspired Yale-architect design each elevates everyday routines with refined kitchens, thoughtful systems, and flexible spaces for guests or multigenerational life. Together, they balance privacy and serenity with access to beaches, boat launches, and cultural hubs.
