About South Windham

Tucked along the banks of the Presumpscot River, South Windham is a quiet, historic village neighborhood within the town of Windham. Originally built up around local water mills, the community still revolves around the water, featuring classic New England homes and leafy residential streets along the river corridor. It offers a relaxed, small-town atmosphere while keeping you only about twenty minutes from downtown Portland.

Corporal James F. Allen, 24, son of Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence H. Allen, RFD 1, South Windham, Maine, holds a bleating kid found on Saipan. 7 August, 1944. (52306890553)

Day-to-day life here gives residents a comfortable balance of outdoor recreation and practical convenience. Route 202 crosses the river directly into neighboring Gorham, while Windham's main commercial district along Route 302 is just a short drive north. Between walking trails along the river, local parks, and easy weekend access to Sebago Lake, it is an appealing option for anyone wanting a scenic neighborhood close to the city.
