Contemporary wood and steel architectural details on custom Lake Sunapee home by Marcus Gleysteen Architects showcasing precision craftsmanship.

Modern Waterfront Architecture
in New Hampshire

Lake Point House serves as an elegant retreat to connect an active family with outdoors and one another. Sited at the edge of Lake Sunapee, the home employs a tectonic play of wood, stone and steel to celebrate the rugged magnificence of New Hampshire. Upon entry, a progression of thresholds immediately reveals the spectacular lake view. Deep overhangs soar toward the sky while giving protection from the elements. Expanses of hand-cut Barre granite and layered columns establish an organic rhythm and ground the house in its wooded surroundings.

Functional & Flexible
Residential Design

A key function of the Lake House’s architecture is its ability to accommodate two people or twenty with equal comfort and grace. This flexibility is achieved through a tripartite plan that demarcates three separate zones. The first is the “core” space: the kitchen, informal dining area and master suite. The second is a private guest wing for visiting family and friends. The third is a formal dining room and sweeping great room for gathering and entertaining.
