Did you know Maine has a fifth season? And it has nothing to do with mud. While it may not have an official name, it’s that quiet stretch between fall and winter – after the leaves have fallen, but before the snow arrives.

It’s a season of stillness and reflection. Of woodsmoke and gray skies, frosted fields and early twilights. A time when the coast empties, the pace slows, and home feels more important than ever.

In real estate, it’s also a season of opportunity – when buyers are serious, and every warm light in a window tells a story

At Maine Home Connection, we celebrate every season, but there’s something about this time of year that reminds us why home is more than just a place – it’s a feeling that stays with you, even beyond it walls.
