THE PHILLIPS LAND BRIEF

Land in the
Western Maine Foothills setting.

Phillips town has 50.8 square miles of land in Franklin County. Its Census reference point is in Western Maine Foothills, within Northeastern Highlands.

Forested hills and mountains span northern New England, the Adirondacks and higher Catskills. Glacial lakes and steep streams accompany a transition between northern hardwood and spruce-fir forests.

Regional context: Northeastern Highlands ↗ · Classification at the Census reference point

Phillips and Franklin County

Phillips is associated with Franklin County in the Census boundary data. Start with the parcel’s tax bill to match the property to that jurisdiction, then confirm which government handles its land use.

Franklin County

Phillips by land and water

The Census records 0.18 square miles of water within Phillips, or 0.4% of its total area. It is 2.3 percentage points lower than the 2.7% recorded for Franklin County. This is geographic context; waterfront status and usable land must be checked at the parcel.

For scale, Phillips town has 1.2 times the land area of nearby Avon town (41.4 square miles). These areas describe boundaries, not comparable property prices.

QUESTIONS GROUNDED IN THIS PLACE

Your Phillips
land questions.

Have a tax bill, an inherited deed, or simply a map pin? Start with what you have.

What should I send for land in Phillips?+

Send the parcel number or legal description, approximate acreage, and a map pin showing the property in Franklin County. Phillips’s 50.8 square miles of land include many different property situations; the exact parcel is what we review.

Is every Phillips property in Western Maine Foothills?+

No. Western Maine Foothills is the regional classification at the Census reference point. The Phillips boundary and individual properties can cross landscape transitions. Open the regional source and the topographic map, then locate the actual parcel before applying regional context.

Can I use Avon as a reference for my land?+

It can help explain the location: its Census point is about 5.4 miles southeast of Phillips’s. That distance is not a driving route, utility connection, or comparable-sale adjustment. Share the actual access road and parcel records so we can review your property on its own facts.

Can I request an offer without being near Phillips?+

Yes. Begin online with the property location and ownership details. Tell Larry G and the team what you know about the land, access, and any co-owners. We review the parcel before deciding whether to propose a purchase; if a sale moves forward, the closing company can explain remote signing arrangements.
