Roundtree Construction is responsible for the creation of this visually stunning modern dwelling that is perched on a cliffside overlooking Lake Champlain, Vermont. The lake house offers mesmerizing views on multiple levels courtesy of its expansive lift and slide glass walls and elevated decks.

Nestled onto a narrow property, the visitor is initially offered peeks of its views through the landscaped courtyard. Moving through the property and the residence, a landscaped terrace surrounded by board-formed concrete walls, and bluestone pavers, opens the house to the western spectacle. A narrow lap pool and spa are tucked into the terrace to provide private enjoyment of the space.

Roundtree Construction was responsible for fabricating most of the home’s doors, waterfall countertop in the kitchen, extensive dark stained millwork, and glass walled staircase. Highlights of this residence includes: geothermal heating and cooling, radiant floors, a solar PV array, a green roof and 16-inch thick walls. Numerous other features give it a minimal energy footprint.
