For Colleen Kavanagh, an entrepreneur, and her accountant husband, Matt Guida, the town of Falmouth, Maine, is the perfect mix of city and country. The couple and their 2-year-old daughter relocated from Boston in September to Ms. Kavanagh’s home state to fulfill their lifelong dream of renovating a historic home. They recently purchased a five-bedroom, 5½-bathroom, 4,500-square-foot home for $830,000 in Falmouth. We started looking around the Portland suburbs, Ms. Kavanagh said. But in my heart, I knew where I wanted to be.
