This lake house has stunning views and coastal-inspired, fresh blue and white aesthetic. Meet our pick for best lake house.

Style in a few words: Progressive, coastal, and traditional.

The house: At 10,590 square feet, this beautiful lake house has space for a large family. It includes five bedrooms, six full bathrooms and two powder rooms.

• You can feel like you’re on a staycation with the patio swing or find solitude in the curved bay window seat. 

The view: The house was perfectly on the peninsula for panoramic lake views. Large windows and doors give an indoor-outdoor feel, especially as the sun sets over the water and the home is drenched in dreamy light.

Purpose: The design was intended for this to become the family home that can be passed down for generations. Small details include the owners favorite colors, blue and white, which are trickled throughout as a reflection of them.

Outdoor living: The covered back patio was made to be comfortable all year round, while soaking in the manicured lawn, pool and views. The outdoor living space features retractable screens, ceiling heaters, fans, a fireplace and an outdoor kitchen.

Take a look around.

Design team: Shannon Bowman with SB Interiors worked on the design. Harry Schrader with Schrader Design completed the architecture. Kingswood Custom Homes was the builder.
