Historic design for a new building.
This two-family lakefront home is new construction on the grounds of Chautauqua Institution, a designated historic district. The design had to meet the building standards of the district and blend in with the surrounding properties.
So the house takes its cues from its neighbors: steep gables, bay windows, decorative trim, and a porch that wraps the corner behind striped awnings.
It is two homes side by side. Each side has four floors, including a finished basement, its own wrap around porch, and unobstructed views of the lake. Structural engineering was by Siracuse Engineers of Buffalo.

Two homes side by side. Each has four floors, its own porch, and an open view of the lake.
