The Boathouse

Arts & Crafts House Exterior, New York

We were asked to design a traditional lake front structure to store boats and serve as a guest house. Design inspiration was found in the details of Hacker Craft mahogany boats and boat houses found on Lake George and other upstate New York lakes, The structure is built into a hillside to allow at grade entry for each level. A raised side entry allows a top view of the boat similar to the view one would have from a dock. The one bedroom residence on the upper level is 883 net square feet.
