Lakewood Renovation/Makeover

This is a complete renovation that we produced in 2009.  It was a small cottage in Coloma Michigan, in need of some TLC.  It had partial lake views, and a double lot.  I took it to the drawing board, and came up with a suitable look to maximize the "lake cottage" look.  We combined natural cedar Batt & Board Siding, Cedar Shakes, and a clear cedar garage door, to maximize the green effect.

Multiple dormers or all different shapes, sizes, and heights adds some great balance to the 1,600 square foot cottage.  To finish off the look, we added some decorative gable trim, tapored pillars with a river rock base, flower box for the kitchen window, and a screened in porch for relaxing on those hot summer days, when the pesty bugs are relentless.  Believe it or not, this is the same house, same foundation, We just added on to the existing Structure to greatly enhace the curb appeal.   

The After picture.  The renovation was a success.  Amazing what a little detail, and a lot of hard work can do...!
