Lakehouse: A Tudor-Inspired Home Transformed in Ontario

A modern, glass-enclosed home with a wooden roof set in a lush, landscaped garden.

Designed by Shean Architects in 2022, the Lakehouse in Ontario, Canada, is a stunning example of modern architecture seamlessly blending with a heritage-designated Mock Tudor home. This single-family residence, situated on a gentle slope overlooking a tranquil lake, features a subtle grandeur with its restored exterior and a captivating interior transformation that introduces an airy atrium and a central “catwalk” stair.

The project’s design is a harmonious balance of preserving the home’s historic charm while incorporating contemporary elements that enhance the connection between the existing structure and the surrounding landscape.
