There's space for the entire family at this four-bedroom waterfront home in Norway, beautifully situated on the western shore of Pennesseewassee Lake, just half an hour from the ski resort and Pleasant Mountain. This is a place for a memorable summer in Maine, with a private dock, two kayaks, a pair of stand-up paddleboards, and a canoe to take out on the water daily. Sunday River Resort is open for all seasons with an on-site dock and is great for canoeing and outdoor activities.

This lakefront home boasts a quiet, rural setting just over two miles outside downtown Norway. The incredible lake view can be taken in as you prepare breakfast in the kitchen, grill and dine on the expansive back deck, and gather around the firepit each evening for s'mores, stories, and stargazing.

The living spaces are spread out across three floors, with wood-paneled walls adding warmth and character throughout. The great room combines the well-equipped kitchen (with a large breakfast bar and stainless steel appliances), the dining area, and a cozy living room with a big-screen TV and a leather sectional. For even more at-home fun, head downstairs to the game room in the walk-out basement to find air hockey, foosball, and another TV.

Additional features include a private washer/dryer, complimentary WiFi, and window air-conditioning.

Five brothers in Maine
This house was perfect for a two night Brothers weekend. The house lived up to the pictures and it’s in a beautiful spot. House was clean. It wasn’t a dealbreaker, but there was a sulfur smell while taking a shower. It could probably use a better water filtering/softening system.

February Family Holiday
This is the second year we have stayed at this home for our winter holiday. We have enjoyed our visits and found the home to have everything we need. We were pleased to find the fireplace in working order, even though we received a note that it was not working. That and the large kitchen are the natural gathering spots for our family. Watching the ice fishing on the lake is an added bonus. Thank you for sharing this lovely property. We'll be back!

Great place to hang with family. Love the deck to sit out and have coffee and late night talks. The home was very comfortable . We really enjoyed our stay. I also have a home on the lake but was hosting a wedding and need the extra space. I would highly recommend this place. Thanks for sharing your home

Needs a handy man
The location, lake and space of house was awesome. Our biggest issues was with the "amenities." The refrigerator water and ice machine did not work. One of the burners on the stove did not work and the rest were sketchy at best. The stove top light was broken. The pots and pans were dirty and old in need of replacing. The ceiling fan light was broken and the fan had one speed, slow and could not be changed. The home speakers, inside and out, did not work. The main level bathroom shower doors were broken and as a result the shower could not be used. The homes well water desperately needs a filter for the sulfur smell! The smell was almost unbearable! The home had one AC unit which helped but not for the bedrooms. The air hockey game worked intermittently. The corn hole bags were old, ripped and unusable. The grounds were well overdue for cutting and trimming. One of the kayaks floated but that's about it. The fire wood supplied was pressure treated lumber, which, when burned is highly toxic.

Great house!
Although the weather didn’t cooperate during our stay, the house, yard, lake, and amenities were wonderful. The house was clean, the kitchen is big, there's plenty of space to spread out on all 3 floors. Rain 5 out of 7 days prevented us from boating a lot, but what we were able to do was really beautiful. Plus, the town of Norway is pretty and quaint, and all of the stores anyone would need are within 5-15 minutes of the house.

Norway Maine Lake House
This was a lovely home in a charming Lake neighborhood. Scattered with traditional Maine lake cottages. Loons greeted us off our dock throughout the day and night. The house had ample comfortable space for our family to gather. The kitchen was well stocked and the bedrooms were comfortable. We appreciated having three full baths when 6 adults were dressing for a wedding. We were primarily there for the wedding so could not completely enjoy the lake, but if we’d had time there were kayaks, paddle boards, and a canoe to employ. We were thrilled to be able to bring our dogs. They certainly enjoyed the lake. The location was convenient to town yet felt like we were deep in the Maine woods. We would return again.
