A new garage and breezeway made strides toward accessible living while a refreshed porte cochere showcases what we affectionately call our “everything” truss for this remodeled home.

Echoed on the lakeside, the same truss design offers shelter over an expansive covered porch and deck.

The timber additions continue into the home, introducing timber throughout the great room and incorporating a timber ‘bridge’ loft area.

Other details include a custom stair and main entry door, both crafted by our fine woodworking group, NEWwoodworks.
