Wake up every day to the beauty of lake life! Lake Pennesseewassee comes from the Abenaki language and is commonly understood to mean something close to ''Crooked Lake'' or ''Where the water bends''. The name likely refers to the lakes irregular winding shoreline. This exceptional property offers easy access to swimming, boating, kayaking, and endless outdoor recreation. Whether you're hosting large gatherings or enjoying a peaceful evening surrounded by nature, this home provides the perfect setting.
Built into the hillside, the bottom floor stays naturally cool even during the warmest summer days. Wildlife is abundant, with frequent visits from loons, ducks, cranes, and other native birds, making this a true nature lovers paradise.
Located just minutes from charming downtown Norway and Paris, you'll enjoy unique shops, restaurants, an active arts community, scenic hiking trails, and the convenience of nearby grocery stores, hardware stores, Walmart, Big Lots, and more. Stephens Memorial Hospital is only minutes away for added peace of mind.
The public boat launch, children's playground, and swimming area are close by, making it easy to enjoy everything the lake has to offer. Portland International Jetport and major shopping destinations are just a 50-minute drive away, while the New Balance factory outlet--where many of their shoes are made--is right here in Norway.
This property offers the perfect balance of waterfront recreation, small-town charm, modern conveniences, and natural beauty--an ideal place to call home.
