School time spent out East brought this Chicago family to Lake Winnipesaukee for their vacation come retirement home. A casual and relaxing long course through design over a couple of years lead to a gem that is seeing heavy use. The schedule for the guest house was moved up so as to accommodate the populous at this popular family setting and is now complete too. A large kitchen, dining, living area with a cathedral ceiling runs along the lakeside flanked by a first floor office and first floor parent’s suite with a porch sprinkled in.
