This modestly sized lake front day-home was designed to be whimsical and practical, with details and finishes that are a sublet nod to realms of Middle Earth.
With a look and feel that would not be out of place in any J.R.R. Tolkien story, this Hobbit inspired cottage is both simple and elegant with large custom finished heavy timber details, open plan living area, and custom curved doorway crafted by our fine woodworking division NEWwoodworks.
“When projects like this one come to us, they bring such joy with them and provide a welcomed change of pace for our craftspeople.” - Eric Fraser, New Energy Works COO

“If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world.”
