Gray puts you at the sweet spot between lakes, farms, and the energy of Portland, all within commuter-easy reach off Exit 63 of the Maine Turnpike. In Cumberland County and sharing borders with communities like New Gloucester, it offers a relaxed pace with quick access to jobs, healthcare, and dining across Greater Portland.
Weekends practically plan themselves. Meet moose and eagles at the state-run Maine Wildlife Park, explore miles of quiet woods on the Libby Hill Forest Trails, or cool off at Crystal Lake’s Wilkies Beach. Golfers gravitate to Spring Meadows Golf Club, and winter brings groomed paths for snowshoeing and Nordic loops right in town. Town services, recreation, and seasonal events are easy to plug into through the Town of Gray.
Families appreciate MSAD 15 (Gray–New Gloucester) schools, known for a comprehensive curriculum, strong arts and athletics, and community-backed extracurriculars from elementary through Gray-New Gloucester High School. The Gray Public Library anchors year-round learning with storytimes, maker programs, author talks, and an active events calendar.
Housing ranges from classic village capes to wooded subdivisions and lakeside cottages, often with larger lots than you’ll find closer to the coast. Whether buying or selling, Agent Pronto can connect you with a top local agent who knows Gray’s neighborhoods, pricing trends, and the pace of the market.
