Waterfront Cottage
Lake Minnetonka, Minnesota
Built on a challenging, narrow lake-front site, this elegant cottage was designed to take in grand views of Lake Minnetonka while maintaining an intimate atmosphere. Height restrictions allowed for unique gabled rooflines and cozy upper level interior spaces while shingle siding provides a timeless quality. With a clean, refined, contemporary interior, this home was designed for gathering.
