Custom designed Timberframe home designed and built by the owner. It is off the beaten path but near everything, located on 3 acres of land and sits among beautiful oak trees with great sunlight all day long. This Post and Beam home was built in the Shaker tradition from wood that was harvested from the land it sits on, with hand cut joinery and pegs. There is also a custom formed pine countertop that was made from a 5 foot diameter tree that blew down in Northern Maine.
 
This modern home has 3 bedrooms (1 king, 1 queens, 1 double) with the Master Bedroom in an partially-open loft overlooking the Living Room. The Master Bath also features a two person spa tub to relax in after those long hikes. The large deck is great for sunbathing and outdoor entertaining.
 
Norway Drive is less than 10 minutes to downtown Bar Harbor, and less than 10 minutes to the main entrance for the Acadia National Park Loop Road.
 
Quiet surroundings, but close to everything, including Southwest Harbor, Northeast Harbor, Long Pond, Echo Lake Beach, Hulls Cove Beach and of course Acadia National Park. Enjoy your close proximity to Acadia National Park's hiking trails, lakes, carriage roads, and rocky coastline. Take advantage of other activities, like whale watch trips, sea or lake kayak tours, fun shopping, great dining, biking, bird watching, swimming and more!
 
SUNDAY TO SUNDAY RENTAL Wood stove in photos is not for tenant use. **Please note the master is an open loft layout looking over living room with no door. However, you can't see the bed area from below.
 
Weekly Sun-Sun bookings preferred. No smoking. Pets considered with $150 fee.

Wonderful property - comfortable home

Wonderful property - comfortable home, close proximity to downtown and the park, but far enough away for some much needed peace and quiet. Back deck is perfect for star gazing. Highly recommend. - (Sep 2024 - VRBO)

Love this house!

My family of 6 stayed at the Norway House to celebrate our wedding anniversary. It had everything we needed to be comfortable and a little bit pampered. From the jet tub in the master bedroom to the tiki bar / playroom in the basement. They welcomed our dog to be with us which was important to our family. The house is eclectically decorated with local art and craftsmanship. We would stay here again in a heart beat! 
Left on Sep 30, 2017 for a stay in Jul 2017 - (Nov 2017 - Previous)
