Is there anything better than waking up, seeing big tall trees and a lake right in front of you? This traditional lake house is located in Minneapolis and it was designed by TEA2 Architects and the interiors are by Billy Benson Co.

The house exudes charm and beautiful decor, but what really makes this traditional lake house feel appealing is the comfort you can find in every room.

Nothing was overlooked, yet nothing became too precious. This house feels as the simple elements were added slowly, with a big enphases on timeless architectural design.

Traditional Shingle-Style Home

The architecture of this house is charming and timeless. The beautiful window box makes the curb-appeal of this lake house even more attractive. The plants in the second floor window box are lime green and purple Sweet Potato Vine and Canna Lily.

The roof and the gable end walls are both cedar shingles. Shingle color is a 50/50 mix of Cabot’s Bleaching Oil & Weathering Stain. The steps are bluestone.

Bathroom

This bathroom is so well designed that almost don’t feel like a bathroom. I simply love it!

The wall color (Benjamin Moore Manchester Tan HC-81) makes the space feel large and calm.

Porch

This is the kind of porch that can make me fall in love with the house. I often prefer light colored outdoor furniture because it feels calmer and beautifully contrasts with the landscaping.

The columns are approx 11′ tall and have a circumference (at the base) of approx 4′-6″ and the ceiling is Western Red Cedar with a clearcoat finish.
