Situated along the Sebago Lake shoreline is North Gorham.
On the shores of Sebago Lake
Situated along the Sebago Lake shoreline is North Gorham, a residential New England neighborhood with a coastal living atmosphere. Nature preserves and hiking trails can be found throughout the entire neighborhood, giving residents ample opportunity for outdoor recreation. Although the area is primarily made up of natural land and residential homes, nearby towns give locals easy access to shopping and dining options. Bordering the neighborhood to the west is Sebago Lake, which sits in a granite basin and is known for being the deepest lake in Maine. Two school districts serve students in the North Gorham area: Regional School Unit No. 06, which received a C-plus rating from Niche, and Gorham Public Schools, which received a B-plus rating.
Dutch colonials and Cape Cods
Homes in this neighborhood can be found in cul-de-sacs and small residential communities that branch off main roads like Main State Route 35 and North Gorham Road. These pockets tend to be surrounded by dense woods that can give residents privacy and proximity to the New England outdoors. Most homes are inland, but there are few waterfront properties along Sebago Lake with private docks and shoreline access. Common home styles include Dutch colonials and Cape Cods that feature gabled roofs, arched windows and driveways. The median price of a home here is about $420,000, but some three-bedroom waterfront residences can cost more than $1.3 million.

Residents can find year-round outdoor recreation
Residents can enjoy year-round outdoor recreation on Sebago Lake and any one of the neighborhood’s nature trails. In the summer, hikers can trek the 28-mile Sebago to the Sea Trail, and boaters can sail across the clear waters of the lake. When the temperatures drop, locals can go cross-country skiing along the Cummings Preserve Trail or try their hand at ice fishing on the frozen lakefront. For outdoor sports, residents can go to Perennial Place on North Gorham Road and play on three pickleball courts, a baseball field and tennis courts. In the warmer months, Dundee Park opens up its beach access, picnic area, athletic facilities and fishing dock.

Route 35 stretches through North Gorham.
Commuters can take U.S. Route 302 to Portland
This neighborhood is considered to be car dependent due to a lack of sidewalks and the fact that most homes, parks and businesses are far apart from each other. Maine State Route 35 traverses most of the neighborhood and extends from the village of Sebago Lake to the town of North Windham. Route 35 also connects to U.S. Route 302, which commuters can take to drive approximately 16 miles into downtown Portland. Residents can also drive 15 miles south on State Route 237 to get to the Portland International Jetport, which is Maine’s largest airport.
