Lake Houses!

As you drive around the lake you don't often see the true beauty of the houses because resident's invest the most on the lake view and not the road view. Today I thought I would show you some houses I have always admired from the water.

This is my favorite house on the lake.

 It reminds me of my time on Cape Cod. I love the combination of gray/blue shingles and stone.

It recently changed hands without even going on the market. That happens more often than people realize here on the lake.

The current owner's of this home have done a great job restoring it. It has original bamboo flooring throughout the house. I love how the stairs divide and go right and left.

 Many of the houses are very close together here on the lake. I always admire any house that has a large yard with it. There is also a tiny church on the property that lake goers attend on Sundays.

My husband and I used to kayak past this property when there was nothing built on it. It has always been my husbands favorite piece of property on the lake.

I have always loved this one! Especially the porch off the master bedroom on the left.

I run by this house often and never get tired of seeing it.

The two rooms on the left on all three floors have been recently been added to this home. Being a teacher I have always liked it because it reminds me of a school house. 

This property has always looked happy and lived in to me. I especially like seeing the badminton net in the yard, the playset and of course the trampoline. As a former gymnast I have a soft spot for trampolines.

This road view of this house is very beautiful. It has burgundy shutters that match the stone work.

 Last year while attending a party at this home the boys discovered the owner's had a movie theatre. For the boys last movie night before summer we watched Despicable me there. This family is so kind.

I hope you have enjoyed my house tour on the lake!
