Spread out over two levels, this cozy lake cottage designed by Visbeen Architects is nestled on a narrow lakefront bluff in Saugatuck, Michigan. Encompassing 3,678 square feet of living space, the architect designed with an open floor plan and layered outdoor spaces.

The exterior features elements from both the Shingle and Craftsman architectural movements, creating a warm cottage feel. An open main level skillfully disguises this narrow home by using furniture arrangements and low built-ins to define each spacesโ€™ perimeter. Every room has a view to each other as well as a view of the lake.

The cottage feel of this homeโ€™s exterior is carried inside with a neutral, crisp white, and blue nautical themed palette. The kitchen features natural wood cabinetry and a long island capped by a pub height table with chairs. Above the garage, and separate from the main house, is a series of spaces for plenty of guests to spend the night.
