Konstant Architecture Planning in collaboration with Colby-Construction has custom-designed this cottage-style lake house situated in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. This dwelling was created as a place where the owners could escape the city and relax with family and friends. It has all the amenities one could desire to get away from it all and unwind. From cozy fireplaces to a refreshing swimming pool, the options for a relaxing weekend away from the city are varied and endless.

Constructed on a sprawling property with towering oak trees – and featuring a magnificent shoreline on a tranquil lake – this home offers something for everyone. A swimming pool area comes complete with comfortable lounge seating along with an outdoor fireplace. There is also a screened-in porch with more seating options, making this home perfect for entertaining. Guests can relax in the swimming pool, get a tan on the lounge chairs, or warm up by the fire on cool summer nights.

What We Love: This beautiful cottage-style home was designed to be warm, inviting, and elegant, idyllic for entertaining family and friends. The project team did a fantastic job of creating a residence that offers plenty of amenities for a home away from home. Making it the ultimate getaway destination — whether for a weekend escape or an extended holiday. Overall, we think this gorgeous home would make an idyllic retreat to enjoy lakeside living at its finest.
