This stunning contemporary home was created by Morgante Wilson Architects, situated on a peaceful forested property in Chenequa, Wisconsin. Nestled into a wooded bluff overlooking stunning views of North Lake, this dwelling was conceived as a contemporary interpretation of classic rural American Architecture to fulfill the owner’s request for a contemporary house that did not look out of place.

Stone Parapet walls repeat throughout the residence as both an architectural motif and a practical means of physically separating the public and private living spaces. Other traditional features have been re-imagined to give the house both its striking appearance and comfortable familiarity.

What We Love: This secluded woodland retreat offers its inhabitants a wonderful escape for relaxation and outdoor family activities with the nearby lake. An unassuming exterior facade at the front of this property melds into the hillside, opening up at the back with dramatic lake views. Large windows help to not only maximize the lake views but drench the interior spaces with natural light.
