About the project

This rustic lakefront retreat was designed for all ages, blending antiques, custom details, and purposeful design with breathtaking views of Lake Anna. Originally built as a 7,000 sq. ft. Airbnb and holiday home, it was later transformed into a forever home that balances functionality, durability, and warmth.

Design in Details

The home embraces waterfront living with a rustic farmhouse feel, incorporating family heirlooms, antiques, and custom elements like the breakfast chandelier and dining table. Designed for everyone—from seniors to children—it features seven bathrooms, a bunk room, a kids’ play loft, a basement rec room for adults, and a wrap-around porch, all carefully planned to maximize comfort and enjoyment.

Incredible Result

Every inch of the home was designed with intention, using repurposed materials from trees cleared on the property to create character-rich, purposeful spaces. The final result is a functional yet charming retreat where family, friends, and guests can gather, relax, and enjoy the stunning lakefront views in a warm, inviting environment.
