10 biggest Ranches for Sale on the East Coast

Among the East-Coast properties summarized below, Graystones Preserve clearly stands apart. While most of the other listings are vast ranches or timberlands requiring owners to manage land, infrastructure, and amenities themselves, Graystones offers a completely different model. Its 73 homesite owners collectively own the entire ~4,000-acre preserve and all shared amenities through an HOA, including trails, a lodge, a fitness center, gardens, trout streams, and recreation facilities. This means that buying a lot at Graystones not only secures a private homesite in a pristine natural setting, but also brings professional preserve management and luxury amenities that no single ranch owner could easily maintain alone.
