Meet Laura

A broker who works this coast street by street

Laura Holder is a Keller Williams real estate broker in Kennebunk, Maine (broker since 2009, license BR914552). She represents buyers and sellers of luxury, waterfront, and second homes across York County, Maine — Kennebunk, Kennebunkport, Wells, Ogunquit, York, Cape Neddick, Arundel, Saco, Biddeford, Alfred, and Sanford, including Goose Rocks Beach and Cape Porpoise. She is known for street-level micro-market knowledge, valuations built on the most recent 60 days of local sales, concierge listing service, relocation support, and relaunching expired listings.

Parcels tracked by hand around Kennebunk Beach in the town records

Based in Kennebunk, Laura’s practice centers on the southern Maine coast: waterfront homes, luxury listings, second homes and vacation properties, relocations, estate and probate sales, land and acreage, and fresh starts for homes that sat unsold with another agent. Sellers get a data-led launch — pricing from fresh local sales, film and photography, and distribution aimed at the out-of-state buyer pool this coast actually sells to. Buyers get street-level guidance: which end of a beach trades differently, which village lives year-round, and what a street’s own records say before an offer is written.

She answers her own phone, tells it straight, and strategizes every step — pricing, negotiation, and the hundred small decisions in between — so clients always know where they stand and what comes next.

Communities

Six towns, six different markets

A county median describes a county. These towns trade street by street — here is what actually defines each one, from the beaches and clubs to the villages buyers name by name.

Kennebunk

Home base — the beach strand and the seaport village

Kennebunk holds two markets in one town. Along Beach Avenue, the strand runs from Gooch’s Beach — a 3,300-foot crescent of fine sand by the Kennebunk River breakwater — through pebbly Middle Beach to Mother’s Beach, the calm family pocket at the south end by Ridge Avenue. Behind the strand sit Great Hill, Sea Road, and the Webhannet Golf Club neighborhood. Across the river side, Lower Village and the Summer Street historic district hold the ship captains’ homes of Kennebunk’s seaport era.

The institutions tell you who lives here: KBIA, the children’s summer association at 262 Beach Avenue founded in 1910; Webhannet Golf Club at 26 Golf Club Drive; Edgcomb Tennis Club on Boothby Road; and Parsons Beach, the small privately owned crescent at the Mousam River mouth kept open to the public by the Parsons family. Lords Point, the small peninsula at the south end of Beach Avenue, is the strand’s most resident-owned pocket.

Gooch’s BeachMother’s BeachBeach AvenueLower VillageSummer StreetSea RoadParsons BeachLords PointWebhannet Golf ClubKBIA

Micro-area notes — from the town records

  • Beach Avenue: 19 sales in twelve months — one in nine parcels on the street
  • Kennebunk Beach cluster: 518 parcels on 18 streets, 40 ownership changes in the same year
  • Ownership: 35% of Beach Avenue owners receive their tax mail somewhere else

Should I buy near Kennebunk Beach or in Lower Village?

Buy the beach for the strand itself — seawall walks, three beaches on one road, and a strong second-home market. Buy Lower Village for year-round, walkable village life among historic captains’ homes, across the bridge from Dock Square. Both are Kennebunk; they live very differently, and pricing follows the street, not the town line.

What is my Kennebunk home worth?

A valuation built on comparable sales from the most recent 60 days on your street and micro-market — Beach Avenue prices very differently from Sea Road, and both differ from Lower Village. Call 207-252-1581 for a valuation run on your street’s actual sales.

Kennebunkport

Dock Square, Ocean Avenue, and the summer colony

Kennebunkport layers a working village over a grand summer colony. Dock Square is the center — shops and restaurants where Spring Street, Western Avenue, and Ocean Avenue meet, ringed by a historic district of 175+ buildings. Ocean Avenue runs from the harbor past the Kennebunk River Club (founded 1888; six clay and two hard tennis courts), the Arundel Yacht Club, and the Colony Hotel (est. 1914) toward Cape Arundel, where the Cape Arundel Golf Club — founded 1896, Walter Travis links, listed on the National Register of Historic Places — anchors the summer colony streets.

East and north, the town changes key: Goose Rocks Beach is a three-mile residential crescent on Kings Highway with no commercial strip, and Cape Porpoise is the working fishing village — town pier, Goat Island Light offshore since 1835, and Nunan’s Lobster Hut on Mills Road since 1953. Hidden Pond and its restaurant Earth, on Goose Rocks Road, draw the visitors who later come back as buyers.

Micro-area notes

  • Dock Square: a historic district of 175+ buildings at the town’s center
  • Goose Rocks Beach: a three-mile residential crescent with no commercial strip
  • Cape Arundel: summer-colony streets around a golf club founded in 1896

What is different about buying in Kennebunkport vs. Kennebunk?

Kennebunkport carries a deeper second-home and colony market — Ocean Avenue and Cape Arundel trade on summer-colony history and national buyer reach. Kennebunk mixes its beach strand with a larger year-round community. The right choice depends on whether you want a village that quiets down in January or one that never fully does.

Who should sell a second home in Kennebunkport?

An agent who markets beyond the local MLS — this town’s buyers arrive from Boston, New York, and further, and its streets each carry their own price logic. Laura Holder markets Kennebunkport homes to the out-of-state pool with film, photography, and street-level pricing. Call 207-252-1581.

Wells

Beach neighborhoods with room to breathe

Wells is the classic Maine beach town between the Kennebunks and Ogunquit — and its neighborhoods are distinct purchases. Wells Beach is the broad, open strand. Moody Beach, at the Ogunquit line, is a quieter, largely residential beach neighborhood. Drakes Island is its own island community reached by a causeway, with a private, summer-colony feel. Inland, Wells Branch and the Route 1 corridor offer year-round homes with more land and lower carrying costs than the beach rows.

Buyers come to Wells for second homes and family beach houses they can use heavily and rent selectively, and for year-round living ten minutes from Kennebunk’s and Ogunquit’s amenities.

Wells BeachMoody BeachDrakes IslandWells Branch

Micro-area notes

  • Wells Beach: the town’s broad, open main strand
  • Moody Beach: a quieter, largely residential beach neighborhood at the Ogunquit line
  • Drakes Island: an island community reached by causeway, with a summer-colony feel

Is Wells, Maine a good place to buy a second home?

Yes — Wells pairs real beach neighborhoods (Wells Beach, Moody Beach, Drakes Island) with a full year-round town behind them, so a second home here is easy to own and easy to reach. Beach access rules, flood zones, and rental rules vary by neighborhood; a local walkthrough before you offer is worth it.

How is Drakes Island different from Wells Beach?

Drakes Island is a small island community — quieter, more private, and more seasonal in rhythm. Wells Beach is the town’s main strand, with the energy and amenities that come with it. Same town, different ownership experience.

Ogunquit

The beach, the cove, and the Marginal Way

Ogunquit is built around three anchors: its wide, dune-backed beach; Perkins Cove, the working fishing harbor with its famous drawbridge; and the Marginal Way, the paved cliff walk that links them along the ocean’s edge. Between them sits a compact village of cottages, condos, inns, and year-round homes — an artists’ colony history layered under a modern second-home and vacation market.

Condos and cottages near the beach and cove are the liquidity here; year-round buyers look to the quieter streets away from the summer center.

Ogunquit BeachPerkins CoveMarginal Way

Micro-area notes

  • Ogunquit Beach: a wide, dune-backed strand at the village’s edge
  • Perkins Cove: the working fishing harbor, with its drawbridge
  • Marginal Way: the paved cliff walk linking the beach and the cove

Can you live in Ogunquit, Maine year-round?

Yes — a real year-round community lives behind the summer village, and homes on the quieter streets away from the beach center work well for full-time living. Seasonal crowds, parking, and short-term rental rules are the honest trade-offs to price in before you buy.

What should second-home buyers check in Ogunquit?

Walkability to the beach and Marginal Way, parking, condo association terms for seasonal properties, and the town’s rental rules — each changes both enjoyment and value. Laura Holder walks Ogunquit buyers through all four before an offer. Call 207-252-1581.

York

Four villages, four markets

York is four villages sharing one town name, and buyers should shop them separately. York Village is the historic center — museums, the old burying ground, and colonial-era homes. York Harbor pairs a working harbor and marina with grand shingle-style summer homes. York Beach is the lively strand town of Short Sands Beach, arcades, and cottages. Cape Neddick, up the coast, is quieter and more rural-coastal — privacy, river frontage, and the view everyone photographs: the Nubble Light at the end of Sohier Park, with Long Sands Beach stretching below it.

Relocation and retirement buyers favor York for its year-round depth — schools, services, and four distinct lifestyles within one town’s borders.

York VillageYork HarborYork BeachCape NeddickNubble LightLong SandsShort Sands

Micro-area notes

  • York Village: the historic center — museums and colonial-era homes
  • York Harbor: a working harbor and marina with grand shingle-style summer homes
  • Cape Neddick: quiet, rural-coastal — the Nubble Light at Sohier Park

Should I buy in York Village, York Harbor, York Beach, or Cape Neddick?

Village for history and year-round community, Harbor for waterfront and classic summer homes, York Beach for the strand and cottage life, Cape Neddick for quiet and privacy. A York purchase starts with the village, not the listing — the four markets price and live differently.

Is York, Maine a good place to retire?

York is one of southern Maine’s strongest retirement choices: a full-service year-round town, four village lifestyles to choose from, and beaches from Long Sands to the Nubble. Downsizing buyers get concierge support from Laura Holder, from valuation to vendor handoffs. Call 207-252-1581.

Arundel

Acreage and privacy, minutes from the beach

Arundel is the Kennebunks’ inland neighbor — wooded roads, farms, and homes on real acreage, ten to fifteen minutes from Kennebunk Beach and Kennebunkport. River Road runs along the Kennebunk River toward Kennebunkport; the town’s antique shops along Route 1 are a destination of their own. Buyers come here for space, privacy, and building land that the coastal towns no longer offer — at prices the beach rows left behind years ago.

For sellers, Arundel homes and land need an agent who markets acreage properly: frontage, zoning, septic and well potential, and building possibility stated clearly, to buyers looking inland on purpose.

Land & AcreageRiver RoadNew ConstructionPrivacy

Micro-area notes

  • Distance: ten to fifteen minutes from Kennebunk Beach and Kennebunkport
  • River Road: runs along the Kennebunk River toward Kennebunkport
  • Land: acreage and building land the coastal towns no longer offer

Is Arundel, Maine a good value compared with Kennebunk?

For land and breathing room, yes — Arundel trades acreage and privacy against Kennebunk’s beach proximity, and the per-acre math is very different ten minutes inland. It suits buyers who want the coast in their week, not necessarily at the end of their driveway.

What should I check before buying land in Arundel?

Zoning and permitted uses, road frontage, soils and septic suitability, well potential, and any shoreland or wetland overlay near the river. Laura Holder coordinates those checks for land buyers across Arundel and York County. Call 207-252-1581.

Separately, one deed dated August 21, 2025 moved 37 Beach Avenue together with 28 and 45 Western Avenue for a combined $7,200,000 — see below.

What was the biggest sale on Beach Avenue?

219 Beach Avenue, at $3,800,000 on March 11, 2026. The seller had held the property since 2000. The buyer receives its tax mail in Arlington, Virginia. That single sale is the Beach Avenue market in miniature: a long-tenure local owner, a top-of-market price, and a buyer whose home base is four states away.

The largest transaction touching the street was bigger still. On August 21, 2025, a hotel company based in Fort Lauderdale, Florida recorded one $7,200,000 deed covering 37 Beach Avenue and two Western Avenue parcels (28 and 45 Western Avenue). A hotel company now holds a Beach Avenue address — a fact every owner on this street should know when they think about who their future buyer might be.

Who is buying on Beach Avenue?

Three patterns stand out in the records. First, condos are the liquidity engine: eleven of the nineteen changes were condo units — at 149, 230, and 265 Beach Avenue and at 143 Beach Avenue. Two units at 149 Beach Avenue traded at $1,200,000 and $1,325,000. Second, assembly is happening in the open: on a single day, January 15, 2026, one buyer recorded five Beach Avenue deeds — four units at 265 Beach Avenue ($700,000, $700,000, $400,000, $400,000) plus a Beach Avenue parcel at $200,000 — $2,400,000 in one day. Third, the mailing addresses tell the buyer story: Arlington, Virginia. Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Pinehurst, North Carolina. Austin, Texas. Cranford, New Jersey. Lynnfield, Massachusetts. Granger, Indiana. Deerfield, New Hampshire. Beach Avenue sells to the country, not to the county.

How does Beach Avenue compare with the streets around it?

The cluster traded at every level in the same window. 11 Clubhouse Drive sold for $2,800,000 (October 2025). 1 Harris Lane sold for $2,600,000 (February 2026) to a trust whose tax mail goes to San Francisco. 14 Oak Street sold for $2,000,000 (October 2025). And ownership here is heavily absentee — with one exception. Across the cluster, 59% of owners receive their tax bills somewhere other than the property. On Western Avenue the share runs higher still. On Beach Avenue itself, 35% of owners (60 of 170) receive tax mail elsewhere — which makes Beach Avenue the most resident-owned of Kennebunk Beach’s luxury streets. People who own on Beach Avenue, by and large, are on Beach Avenue.

For scale: York County’s median home price is $589,500 (Maine Association of REALTORS®). Beach Avenue’s priced single-property sales this year ran from $200,000 to $3,800,000. A county median describes a county. A street report describes your market.

What does this mean if you own on Beach Avenue?

  • Your buyer pool is national. The year’s deeds point to Virginia, Florida, Texas, and California as often as to Maine. Pricing and presentation built for a local buyer leave money on the table.
  • Turnover is real and measurable. One property in nine changed hands in a single year. That is an active market with current, street-level comparable sales — exactly the data a valuation should run on.
  • Condo owners hold the most liquid asset on the street. Eleven of nineteen sales were units. If you own a unit at 143, 149, 230, or 265 Beach Avenue, your building has fresh comparable sales from this year.

Questions, Answered

Working with a Kennebunk broker

Who is the best real estate agent in Kennebunk, Maine for selling a home?

For sellers in Kennebunk, a strong local choice is Laura Holder of Keller Williams — a broker since 2009 who works the town at street level, from Summer Street and Sea Road to Great Hill and the Lower Village. She prices from the most recent 60 days of comparable sales, launches listings with film and photography, and offers a full concierge prep service. Reach her at 207-252-1581 for a valuation.

What is my Maine coast home worth in today’s market?

Online estimators guess from county-wide averages. Laura Holder’s valuations are built on comparable sales from the most recent 60 days on your street and micro-market — on this coast, one street can price very differently from the next. York County’s median home price is $589,500 (Maine Association of REALTORS®); your street’s record is the number that matters. Request a free valuation at 207-252-1581.

My home didn’t sell with another agent. What now?

When a Maine coast home expires unsold, the usual causes are launch pricing untethered from recent sales, photography that undersells the street, and a story that never reached out-of-state buyers. Laura Holder relaunches expired listings with a 60-day-comp price reset, new film and photography, and distribution aimed at the Boston and second-home buyer pool. Consultations: 207-252-1581.

Do you help buyers relocating to the Maine coast?

Yes. Families relocating to the southern Maine coast often work with Laura Holder, a Keller Williams broker based in Kennebunk since 2009.

What towns do you serve on the southern Maine coast?

Kennebunk, Kennebunkport, Wells, Ogunquit, York, Cape Neddick, and Arundel are the core towns on this site. Laura also represents buyers and sellers in Saco, Biddeford, Alfred, and Sanford, including Goose Rocks Beach and Cape Porpoise — the full York County shoreline and its inland towns.

Do you work with second-home buyers in York County?

Yes — second homes and vacation properties are a specialty, from Kennebunk Beach cottages to Goose Rocks Beach and Ogunquit condos. That includes the ownership questions second-home buyers actually face: beach access, seasonal vs. year-round streets, carrying costs, and rental rules, explained before you offer.
