Nestled along the shoreline with panoramic lake views, this mid-century modern residence was transformed to preserve its architectural character while enhancing the home for modern living. Defined by its flat rooflines, expansive glazing, and seamless connection to the outdoors, the original home provided the perfect foundation for a comprehensive renovation and addition.

A carefully integrated 900-square-foot addition expands the home without competing with the original architecture. Defined by simple, single-sloped rooflines, the addition introduces a private primary suite and a secondary bedroom and bathroom designed to be fully handicap accessible. The new spaces blend seamlessly with the existing home, creating a cohesive architectural composition that respects the past while providing comfort, accessibility, and functionality for years to come.
The exterior was reimagined with a clean, contemporary material palette that complements the home's mid-century roots while introducing a refined modern aesthetic. Inside, the entire residence was renovated with updated finishes that honor the simplicity, and timeless appeal of mid-century design. Open, airy living spaces and expansive windows maximize natural light and frame breathtaking lake views from nearly every room, reinforcing the home's strong connection to its surroundings.
