Forest Lake
A rare combination of privacy and long lake views, shaping a clear and intentional layout
Tucked at the end of the last lot on a private street within a gated community on Forest Lake, this home is defined by its prominent setting, privacy, and long lake views. The architecture reflects a modern transitional style, blending stucco and natural stone with a focus on proportion, simplicity, and a strong connection to the water. Primary living spaces are oriented toward the lake, complemented by outdoor living areas with bluestone and a second-story deck overlooking the water. Interior details, including reclaimed beams in the main living space, add warmth while maintaining a cohesive, grounded feel. A three-car garage and circular drive create an estate-style presence, and independent living areas on both the first and second floors provide flexibility.

Our current home was the sixth house that we were involved in the entire construction. This was by far the best construction with the grading of the lot to the finish. The people who we were involved were the best. We had a small punch list which was a positive to verify the quality of work during the building process. The people at Lafaye were really easy to work with and we would recommend them to build your next home.
