Story

The Glendalough showcases simple but edgy design aspects blended with a transitional presentation in a historical cottage development setting.

The Glendalough Lake Home was designed and built for a couple just new to their retirement years.  Holland, MI was the end of their search for a retirement destination in a lakeside infill development within a historic resort area.  The small cluster lots led to some interesting design/construction challenges.  Creating 3600+ Sq.Ft of lake home vertically instead of horizontally led to creative uses of materials to adhere within setbacks and height encroachments. 

Blending modern materials with hints of yesteryear cottage construction aspects took some forethought but with two great clients to work with, both interior and exterior designers on board, and our ample construction team we were able to mesh the two seamlessly.

Probably one of the most talked-about and soothing spaces to relax is the 4th floor covered patio. The views at this level are incredible.  The motorized screens, the tile floor, the countertop bar with awning window, and heaters provide this space with every need for every event mother nature sends.

The entire home was constructed with “aging in place design” as it is zero-step from the garage entry to every floor via the elevator as well as all the shower spaces.

Pictures attest the success…
