The Steward–Emery House was a historic Italianate residence in North Anson, Maine, built around 1870 and later modified with Colonial Revival elements in the early twentieth century. The house gained distinction for its exceptional interior decoration, particularly the large-scale trompe-l'œil artwork adorning its walls—among the finest domestic examples of this illusionistic painting technique known in Maine. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1992, the structure was damaged by a stove fire in 2019 and subsequently destroyed in 2023.
