High design meets high performance in this bespoke residence, nestled within the secluded neighborhood of the Peninsula at Lake O’Dowd, which offers a blend of inviting wood accents, expansive windows, and spaces tailor-made for elegant gatherings and entertaining.

The owners of this home aimed to fashion a midcentury modern sanctuary, ideal for entertaining family and friends as well as enjoying the tranquility of their scenic lakeside setting on 2.27 wooded acres and 327 feet of shoreline.

Another main goal of the project was to ensure a healthier living environment by prioritizing eco-conscious practices, with an emphasis on using clean materials and minimizing VOC emissions.

The star attraction of the home is the sweeping panoramic views of Lake O’Dowd, showcased through expansive floor-to-ceiling triple pane windows, screen porch, and the backyard patio, while Energy Star and EPA Indoor airPLUS certifications underscore its commendable commitment to sustainability.

Design elements such as natural stone countertops, and high-end finishes beautifully highlight the home’s midcentury modern aesthetic, further complemented by the elongated sandy brick and wood siding, custom interior wall paneling, and stylish Louis Poulsen lighting selections. These features are seamlessly integrated by the expertise of our in-house Sustainable 9 interior design team and Unfold Architecture.

A striking floating steel staircase leads down to the lower level, a haven of leisure complete with a sport court and spacious entertainment areas that seamlessly flow out to the lush backyard and serene lake.

Other must-see features include the entrance bridge, an enormous screened porch with a cozy wood-burning fireplace, and a hidden study, and sauna are just waiting to be discovered.
