Randolph is a small central Maine town close to bigger cities
At only 2 square miles, Randolph is the smallest town in Maine by area, but proximity to the cities of Gardiner and Augusta keeps its residents near amenities and jobs. “It's close to everything. That’s really the number one selling point: It’s convenient,” says Anna Moskowitz, an associate broker and Realtor with Hoang Realty who’s been selling homes in the area since 2012. Located on the east side of the Kennebec River across from Gardiner, Randolph has a suburban feel and borders more rural areas like Pittston and Chelsea. Augusta, where hospitals and the state government are big employers, is only 6 miles away.
Water Street connects Randolph to Augusta in roughly a 10-minute drive.
Manufactured homes are common in Randolph.

Homes can have river views and quarter-acre or larger lots
Randolph’s ranch-style, Cape Cod, Colonial Revival and colonial homes typically sit on at least a quarter-acre, allowing space for driveways, mature trees and backyard swimming pools. The houses on Water Street can have views of the river, while those farther east typically have bigger yards and more space between neighbors. “It's a lot of older houses that have been converted into a few units,” Moskowitz says, which makes it a popular spot for renters. For buyers, prices typically range from $180,000 to $360,000. Manufactured homes are also common and can range from $70,000 to $260,000.
Randolph lots often exceed a quarter acre, offering space and shade.
Randolph homes on Water Street can overlook the Kennebec River.

Shopping and dining on Water Street
Water Street is home to Randolph’s businesses, which include a nail salon, a hardware store and a gas station. Sun Sun is a casual Chinese restaurant that has dine-in and takeout options. The Ice Cream Shoppe serves soft-serve and hand-dipped ice cream from April through October. The Goggins IGA here is the closest grocery store, and there’s a Hannaford just across the bridge in Gardiner, which has a walkable downtown filled with locally owned shops and restaurants.
A risk of flooding from the Kennebec River
“It borders the Kennebec River. It's in a valley, so when it goes up, there are properties that flood, but it’s fairly limited,” Moskowitz says. Residents should check flood maps to assess their risk and determine if they’ll need to buy flood insurance. Although most homes are not at risk of severe flooding from the river, basement flooding is common during rainstorms. “We’ve got a lot of basements up here with sump pumps and a lot of seasonal water,” Moskowitz says. “It’s just part of what we deal with in this part of the universe.”
