Having a traditional cottage-style on the main floor and a more casual “Up North” cottage feel on the lower level, this home is a great example of how new classic cottage homes are currently being designed.
Some of the must-see features of this home are the octagonal sunroom, handsome stone fireplace with entertainment center, blue and white “Brazilian Utopia granite” kitchen countertops, built-in beds and an inlaid compass rose in the foyer floor.
Set on Long Lake on the picturesque Long Lake Peninsula, this home is a trip into Northern Michigan’s classic cottage country.

New Classic Coastal Home
This place grabbed my attention from the very start… I love the shingles and the low-maintenance landscaping.
Living The Life
This home will remind you of warm, sunny days… missing them as much as I am? 🙂
Coastal Entryway
Timeless coastal charm… How not to love it?
Floors are finished Oak – Prime Grade.
Coastal Living Room
The open floor plan of this classic coastal home welcomes friends & family to gather with great flow between the defined spaces.
Sofa is from Ethan Allen.
Built-in Ideas
I really like the colors found in this space. Everything is relaxing and calm. Add all of this with that amazing view and you have a perfect living room.
Three Boys
A classic stone fireplace is the main focus point in this space.
Coastal Kitchen
This kitchen is beautiful and it has a very appealing layout.
Coastal Kitchen Design
The whole space feels fresh and bright.
Kitchen Cabinet Ideas
Beautiful cabinet details. I also like how it connects to the laundry room/mudroom.
Kitchen Farmhouse Sink
Countertop is yet another beautiful stone imported from Brazil. This one is called “Utopia granite“.
Kitchen Cabinet Paint Color
Similar Island/Cabinet paint color: “Santorini Blue 1634 by Benjamin Moore”.
White Cabinets Paint Color
Similar Cabinet Paint Color: “Simply White OC-117 by Benjamin Moore”.
Bi-color Kitchen
Stunning combination of crisp white and pale blue cabinets.
Walk-in Pantry
This is a great idea for walk-in pantries. I also love the barn door look.
Open Concept
A nice view to the sitting room and breakfast area. All of this comes with an amazing view of the lake!
Sitting Room
Sink in to a down swivel chair and choose the lake view or turn around to chat with the cook.
This sitting room was just added to my wish-list! I hope to have something similar to this in my next home.
Eating Area
Cozy and relaxed, this eating area is perfect for casual meals.
Paint Color
Wall Paint Color: “Sherwin Williams – Antique white”.
Cabinets
The cabinets in this space are 14″ deep which fit between the 10-1/2″ columns. The wood top is 17″ deep between the columns and is 33″ finished height off the floor. They are full custom cabinets along with the rest of the assembly.
Mudroom
A built-in bench with plenty of storage creates an efficient family entry.
The laundry room and mudroom are connected, yet separate by a pocked door if necessary.
Mudroom Ideas
Separation from the laundry provides a perfect place for the family dog to hang out while he’s drying off after a swim! Complete with his own entry door!
Also, notice there’s plenty of storage and even a “drop zone”, where you can leave your keys, bags, etc when you first get home.
Coastal
You’ll find more coastal charm to be admired on the second floor of this home.
Neat Idea
This is a really neat idea for a kid’s bedroom, especially when space is at a premium.
Similar Paint Color: “Fernwood Green #2145-40 by Benjamin Moore .
Bedroom Paint Color
Paint Color is “Drizzle SW6479 Sherwin Williams”.
This colorful bedroom plays on the hues of the lake beyond. Shelves are ready for books to snuggle with in this cozy built in bed.
Bathroom Cabinet
This master bath brings old and new together.
Shower Design
This porcelain tile shower mimics weathered wood planks with classic penny tile on the floor.
Spell
Now, the kids will know where to put their wet swimsuits! 🙂
Basement
Convenient storage space to grab coozies, etc. on your way out to the lake!
Floors are porcelain tiles from The crate collection weathered board 6×24.
Powder Room
Breathe some new life into a classic old cabinet! The porthole mirror set into a barnwood medicine cabinet is flanked by two mason jar lights.
Patio
A contemporary touch is quite surprising here.
Backyard Ideas
The more you see this home, the more you love it… take a look at this backyard… it’s “full loaded” with an expansive deck, firepit, hot tub, sandy “beach” and dock.
Waterfront
Close to nature.
Dock
Dock + water toys = FUN! 🙂
Neighborhood
Wouldn’t you love to live here?
Trees
This home has it all!

Didn’t this home made you miss summer? I really like how bright this home feels, but I have to admit that I knew I had to share it with you the moment I saw that kitchen and sitting room. That entire area is just perfect… it’s homey and great for family living.
How are you all doing today? We had an okay weekend. Actually, we ended-up at the hospital with my little one on Thursday and we found out he had “croup”. If someone you know ever had it you probably know it’s a little scary. I spent the night by my son because I was scared of the way he was breathing. Like the doctor said, it sounds more scary that it actually is.
He took his medicine and thank GOD he’s much better now… no fever and he’s breathing almost normally now — and so am I. 🙂
Have a very blessed week, my friends. And thank you so much for all the emails you often send to me. You guys are always so kind and this means more than I can explain. Thank you!
I hope you feel happy this week… You know that happiness that makes you even look better? Yes… that kind of happiness… the one that comes from inside, from your heart.

Hi. So glad you’re little one is on the mend – my son had croup in his early months and it is scary – but the doctor’s never seem worried – thank God. The home you have shared is so soft and serene – and very family oriented. Just lovely 😀
Yes…I would love to move right in!!! Gorgeous.
Great home. Thank you for sharing. Glad your little one is doing better.
Fabulous home! Thanks for sharing!
Oi Luciane, que bom que seu filho está bem. Na tradução apareceu a palavra “garupa”, que eu realmente não sei o que seria, pois garupa a qui para nós seria outra coisa. Mas o importante é que já está tudo bem. Ser mãe é andar com o coração sempre na mão, não é mesmo? Mas quanto a casa, é claro que gostaria de viver em um lugar paradisíaco como esse. É tudo lindo, principalmente a vista aérea, que é de tirar o fôlego. A casa em si é perfeita, ampla, e as cores das paredes são linda demais. Um detalhe que também gosto muito, e que aqui no Brasil não temos, são as cubas das cozinhas. Acho tão bonitas, branquinhas, parecendo louça. Lindas imagens, como sempre!
Beijo querida, e bom descanso a você e seus meninos.
E uma semana abençoada!

The “dreaded croup!!” 🙁 Had to smile looking at these beautiful photos…we just put in a slate “compass rose” in our cabin (took out a wood stove and this filled the space!) and it’s under a cupola (a miniature of the sun-room you featured!!) franki
Our youngest gets a croup attack every year, and every year we are told he’ll grow out of it. It’s not fun and scary whilst it’s happening – hope your little one will be well again soon. Also I love this house! K x
What a beautiful home! Wondering if you could advise what the exterior shingle color is?
Thanks!
Do you have a floor plan for this home?
Sorry, Heather, but I don’t. You might want to try to contact the architect/builder specified on the post.
Thank you.
Was hoping you had the floor plan to this beautiful home. Building a lake house and love this layout! Look forward to your response!
Sorry just read some of your previous posts. Can’t seem to find architect name…please advise
Hello Lucy.
