Whitmore Lake, MI
Created as a serene lakeside retreat, this home transforms a modest, narrow lot into a space that embraces and amplifies its waterfront views.
Two-Story Lakehouse

Lake living offers so many incredible benefits–but one of the biggest challenges is lot size. We brought to life our client’s vision for a lake house with a modest footprint on a narrow lot, all while maximizing lake views—from transom-lit dining spaces to an open family room framed by expansive windows. A spacious kitchen, abundant storage, and a four-panel quad slider that fully opens to the deck create a seamless connection between the home’s interior and the surrounding lakefront landscape.

The Kitchen
The priority for this kitchen was maximizing the available working space and finding room for as much storage as possible–spacious pantry cabinets and an oversized island does just that.

Dining Nook
A bank of transom windows provides natural light in this small dining nook without drawing attention to the closely situated neighbors. A mudroom primary entry with custom built oak lockers offers the perfect drop zone before entering the main living space.
