This lakefront oasis was designed as a family retreat by Pritchett + Dixon in collaboration with The Design Atelier, nestled on Lake Burton, Georgia. Perched on a narrow lot overlooking one of the South’s most coveted lakes, this vacation home is a tranquil respite for a busy, growing family that takes advantage of the expansive water views and beautiful landscape.
The interiors were designed to reflect the magnificent setting by selecting materials that spoke to the environment while paying tribute to timeless durability for all generations to enjoy. Function and comfort were of utmost importance which is why this home exudes such a welcoming spirit. The minute you walk into this home, you want to drop everything and collapse into a relaxed state of mind.
