Custom Home Builder in York County
Custom home builder in Alfred, ME
13.3 miles from Biddeford
Alfred shares the Massabesic Experimental Forest with Lyman and counts Shaker Pond, Estes Lake and Middle Branch Pond among its waters. Its Code Enforcement office handles shoreland zoning and floodplain questions along with building permits, and it takes applications through a digital portal.
Custom home builder in Arundel, ME
7.7 miles from Biddeford
Along the Kennebunk River and Goff's Mill Brook, Arundel's shoreland overlay reaches 250 ft back from the water, and the river's 100-year floodplain sits in Resource Protection. Away from the river, every new house needs a site evaluation showing a septic system will fit, and exposed bedrock turns up along Old Post Road and New Road.
Custom home builder in Buxton, ME
9.4 miles from Biddeford
Buxton's villages at Salmon Falls, Bar Mills and West Buxton grew up beside the Saco River, and lots near the Saco, the Little River or Bonny Eagle Pond fall under state shoreland zoning. Away from the water the town opens into rural house lots, and the Code Enforcement Officer must issue a permit before any new house goes up.
Custom home builder in Dayton, ME
7.9 miles from Biddeford
Dayton sits along the Saco River, where the Saco River Corridor Commission reviews any building within 500 ft of the water, and the town has no public water or sewer system. Its Rural Fields and Rural Forest districts ask for 3-acre lots, and the town plan warns that few of its soils suit a septic system, so test pits come first.
Custom home builder in Hollis, ME
10.5 miles from Biddeford
The Saco River runs along the eastern edge of Hollis, past old mill villages such as Bar Mills and Bonny Eagle Falls. The town's population grew 85.4 percent from 1980 to 1990, and its newer houses sit on rural residential lots away from those river villages.
Custom home builder in Kennebunk, ME
8.8 miles from Biddeford
Kennebunk runs from shingle-style summer cottages near Gooch's Beach to rural land inland, and its Summer Street district is lined with Federal and Greek Revival houses. Finish expectations here run well above the Maine average, and near the beaches salt air and storm surge shape the siding, the windows and the foundation.
Custom home builder in Kennebunkport, ME
9.1 miles from Biddeford
Kennebunkport's shore runs from Goose Rocks Beach on Kings Highway to Colony Beach on Ocean Avenue, and land near either falls under shoreland and resource-protection rules that reach as far as which trees may come down. Since October 1, 2026 the town takes every permit application through its GovWell portal, with no paper option.
Custom home builder in Lyman, ME
6.7 miles from Biddeford
Lyman is low-density rural land that shares the Massabesic Experimental Forest with Alfred, and a house lot in its Residential District needs 3 acres and 300 ft of road frontage. Each new-home permit needs a septic design and a site plan showing the well, and lots beside Bartlett, Tarwater and Old Falls Ponds carry a 100 ft building setback.
Custom home builder in Old Orchard Beach, ME
4.3 miles from Biddeford
Old Orchard Beach fits cottages and converted seasonal rentals onto small lots near the beach, where setbacks and lot coverage govern nearly every new house. Beachfront lots take the full force of storm surge and salt, which shapes the foundation and the siding as much as the floor plan does.
Custom home builder in Saco, ME
0.8 miles from Biddeford
Along the Saco River, the Saco River Corridor Commission regulates land within 500 ft of the water, and Camp Ellis and Ferry Beach sit in VE flood zones on the 2024 FEMA maps. Inland, most North Saco and West Saco homes draw from private wells, and a Rural Conservation lot without sewer needs 80,000 sq ft.
Custom home builder in Waterboro, ME
13.4 miles from Biddeford
Waterboro's lake country takes in Little Ossipee Lake, Lone Pond and Middle Branch Pond, so a lot near any of them starts with a shoreland zoning check at the code office. Building permit applications go through the town's online portal, where each one can be followed as it moves.
Custom home builder in Wells, ME
13.4 miles from Biddeford
At Wells Beach, Moody Beach and Drakes Island, cottages stand close together on small lots, and flood exposure there drives the choice between saving an old one and building new. Inland, Wells opens into rural lots, and land near the Wells National Estuarine Reserve carries extra environmental review.
Custom Home Builder in Cumberland County
Custom home builder in Cape Elizabeth, ME
13.4 miles from Biddeford
Cape Elizabeth's rocky eastern shore rises 30 ft or more above the Atlantic, and its floodplain rules set AE-zone floors 2 ft above base flood elevation and call for engineered posts in VE zones. Inland, Residence A lots need 80,000 sq ft, and 34 of the homes built from 2008 to 2017 replaced a house torn down first.
Custom home builder in Gorham, ME
12.9 miles from Biddeford
Gorham's working farms and old fields keep turning into house lots, and new construction is a bigger share of the housing here than in most Cumberland County towns. The older houses gather in Gorham Village, and footings go deeper than on the coast because inland frost does.
Custom home builder in Scarborough, ME
9 miles from Biddeford
Scarborough Marsh, about 3,200 acres and the largest salt marsh in Maine, brings shoreland rules to the land around it, and basements are not allowed in a mapped flood hazard area. Most homes west of the turnpike still draw from private wells, and the rural RF district asks for 80,000 sq ft per house.
Custom home builder in South Portland, ME
14.2 miles from Biddeford
Building new in South Portland usually means infill, on Residential A lots that range from 6,000 sq ft in Willard and Meetinghouse Hill to 12,500 sq ft in Highland. City sewer reaches the whole city and the Portland Water District supplies the water, so near-surface bedrock and Presumpscot clay become the questions under the lot.
Custom home builder in Westbrook, ME
13.4 miles from Biddeford
Riverside lots in Westbrook sit in the Presumpscot River floodplain, which shapes the foundation of any house built along its banks. New construction keeps climbing as Portland prices push buyers outward, and the town has no salt air and slightly deeper frost than the Portland peninsula.
