A Lake House Transformation with Breathtaking Views

On the shores of New Hampshire’s Lake Winnipesaukee, Beckwith Builders designed a New England shingle-style lake house that captures the spirit of family summers on the lake. The home was crafted to maximize lake views and create a seamless indoor-outdoor connection for family gatherings. The design includes classic New England touches like a checkered painted wood pantry floor and a custom lighthouse newel post.

Customizable Folding Glass Door Elevates Design

On the lake facing exterior façade, a screened porch was designed with a disappearing folding glass door for optimal views and enhanced indoor-outdoor living. To merge the primary living spaces with the screened porch, Beckwith Builders selected a five-panel NanaWall folding glass door, offering prime views of the lake. The system was customized with a white powder coating and divided lites to match the existing fenestration and seamlessly merge with the home’s New England charm.

Panoramic Lake Views and Indoor-Outdoor Living

The lakeside retreat also includes other amenities to extend outdoor living, including a lakeside deck with a hot tub, a private sandy beach, a boathouse, and a pool cabana. The 15-foot-wide system opens to the covered porch outfitted with comfortable outdoor furniture and pull-down screens to keep the space bug-free. This configuration allows the family to keep the NanaWall open for a breezy lake house feel without the intrusion of insects, creating an ideal setup for long summer evenings.

“NanaWall has become a staple in our lake home projects because of how they provide flexible indoor-outdoor living. NanaWall helped us bring panoramic lake views into the house and it truly gives a home that extra something special.”

Loblolly House

The project goals included providing savannah-like views of the Chesapeake Bay and opening the interior fully for natural ventilation. The plan also called for thermal insulation when the operable glass walls are closed.

Grafton Residence

With the intent of blurring the lines between inside and out at this New England residence, NanaWall was the chosen solution because of the system’s engineering and aesthetic advantages, including the Screen Classic option.

“When the NanaWall is open, family and friends hear the calming waters over the glacier granite rocks while taking in panoramic views of the Rocky Mountains. When closed, the NanaWall system creates a weather resistant barrier to the outside mountain elements.”

— Christy D'Agostino, Senior Project Manager, VAg Inc.
