The Space:
Escape to the shores of iconic Lake Pend Oreille and discover a dog-friendly waterfront retreat designed for unforgettable family vacations, lake days, and year-round adventure. Inspired by the relaxed elegance of a Scandinavian summer house, this extraordinary home blends luxury, comfort, and effortless indoor-outdoor living — complete with a private hot tub overlooking the property — all just minutes from downtown Sandpoint.
Set on 100 feet of private sandy beachfront, the property welcomes you with panoramic lake views, a sprawling flat lawn perfect for games and gatherings, and endless opportunities to soak up North Idaho’s beauty. Bring your boat and take advantage of the private boat lift, jet ski lift, and the convenient neighborhood boat launch located right next door — making this one of the most boater-friendly vacation homes on the lake. And because this home is pet friendly, your four-legged family members can enjoy the adventure too.
Inside, the home feels warm, elevated, and intentionally curated. Sunlight pours through oversized windows in the expansive great room, where plush furnishings and stunning waterfront views create the perfect setting to unwind after a day on the lake or an evening soaking in the hot tub beneath the stars. Thoughtful Scandinavian-inspired touches, collected artwork, and design-forward details give the home a refined yet welcoming atmosphere.
The chef’s kitchen is truly the heart of the home — fully stocked and beautifully equipped with brand-new appliances, double ovens, a KitchenAid mixer, extensive cookware, barware, and an additional refrigerator/freezer in the heated garage. Whether you’re hosting a holiday dinner, preparing a lakeside brunch, or enjoying cocktails at sunset, this space was built for gathering.
The home comfortably accommodates families and groups with spacious sleeping arrangements across multiple levels. The main-floor primary suite offers a king bed, spa-style bathroom, soaking tub, and walk-in shower.
Downstairs, guests will find additional king and queen bedrooms along with an entertainment-focused family room featuring a massive TV, and flexible sleeping space ideal for kids or larger groups.
Outside is where this property truly shines. Spend your mornings paddleboarding or kayaking on calm water, afternoons lounging on the sandy beach, and evenings gathered around the waterfront entertaining area watching the sunset over the lake. A one-of-a-kind circular waterfront patio creates the perfect backdrop for lakeside dining, cocktails, and memory-making with family and friends.
