Every February marks the culmination of the NFL season as over 100 million people tune in to watch two teams battle for the coveted Vince Lombardi Trophy. Regardless of who is playing, even casual fans of America’s favorite pastime can all agree that the Super Bowl is an excellent excuse to gather with family and friends, indulge on hot-wings and nachos, critique beer and chip commercials, and just have fun on a Sunday night in February.
Just imagine elevating your Super Bowl experience by watching the big game in one of these truly ‘great’ gathering rooms.
1 Sea Street | Rockport, Maine
While February may be too cold to open the French doors to the walk-out patio of this ground-floor great room, you can still admire the spectacular views overlooking Rockport Harbor. Once the sun sets and pregame begins, a large projection screen descends from the ceiling (not pictured) and a Crestron system controls the entire experience, from sound and lighting to the television. Serve up plenty of snacks and beverages at the gorgeous custom cherry bar or grab a bottle of special vino from the adjacent climate-controlled wine cellar.
260 Bay View | Camden, Maine
Nobody wants an enormous flat screen to block their view of the ocean, which is why the main TV at this home rises from a custom-built cabinet (not pictured). The two-sided fireplace provides ambience and coziness while the large flat screen in the kitchen ensures you can grab a snack without missing a moment of the game. Need a refreshment but can’t stand missing the action? Don’t worry, the TV over the custom bar has got you covered. In fact, with five Creston system-controlled TVs strategically located throughout the common area of this house you will never miss a second of the game.
East Bay | Islesboro, Maine
Open and airy, the second-story great room of this island home offers excellent Super Bowl viewing amenities. A wood-burning fireplace with soaring stone chimney, cathedral ceilings, custom-built bar and plenty of seating areas ensure maximum enjoyment of the big game. Don’t forget about the excellent ocean views!
Aspinwall | Bremen Long Island, Maine
The warm, open great room at the heart of this home offers plenty of space for your family and friends to gather. The large fieldstone fireplace provides warmth on a chilly February day, while the 20- foot ceilings, supported by immense oak trusses, inspires a rustic lodge-like experience.
158 Chestnut Street | Camden, Maine
Want to stay active during the game? How about challenging friends or family to a match of pool, foosball, or even chess, while the game plays on the flat screen TV? Better yet, how about a halftime swim in the beautiful heated indoor pool?!
