The project
Altius Architecture designed this cottage on a south-facing site on Lake of Bays near Baysville, Ontario, for long-standing clients who had first asked the practice for small upgrades to the existing cottage and boathouse.
The 442 m2 home has two storeys and a walkout basement to the lake, with living areas on each floor for a large extended family and suites planned for retirement. Large windows take in the lake views throughout the year. It was completed in 2019.
