To make this beachfront home suitable for grand-scale outdoor entertaining, we designed multi-level terraces that take advantage of the lake view and direct access to the private beach. Screened from the street by stone walls and a pergola, this secluded space offers every amenity, including a pool, spa, outdoor kitchen, large area for alfresco dining, sport court, music, and night lighting. Careful planning, and a restrained classical palette, enabled us to maximize the program without sacrificing the serenity bestowed by sand, water, and sky.
