Project Description
The characteristics of this homesite on beautiful Syracuse Lake presented not only design challenges but also made the construction of the home extremely difficult. With very narrow access at the road, the lot widens as it approaches the lake, providing a very generous lake yard. Considering the minimum side yard, lake, and street setback requirements, Lynn designed a home that fully satisfies the needs and desires of the owners. The home features 2,675 square feet of living area above grade and 1,105 square feet of living area in the walk-out basement. Of the five bedrooms, two are designed as owner suites. There is a large office above the two-car garage, a large recreation area in the basement, as well as an open kitchen and great room on the main level. A large exterior deck is accessible from the great room and an exterior stairway. A clever use of space is the lake-toy storage area tucked under that stairway. The recreation area and wet bar in the basement open onto a patio under the impervious deck, which serves as protection from the elements for a hot tub.
