Custom Home on Powers Lake
Powers Lake Project
The client had total faith and trust in John Engerman’s design intent. They wanted an “old” lake home built with a Modern Farmhouse feel.
Timeless Farmhouse Retreat
Nestled on the serene shores of Powers Lake, this stunning custom-built farmhouse-style home by Engerman Custom Homes seamlessly blends timeless design with modern luxury. Thoughtfully designed to capture the essence of lakeside living, the home features an open floor plan, clean lines, and a light, airy ambiance. Expansive windows invite abundant natural light, while exposed beams and shiplap details add warmth and character.
The homeowners were intimately involved in selecting the interior finishes, ensuring every detail—from hand-hewn white oak beams to custom cabinetry and vintage-inspired trim—reflected their vision. The wall-mounted marble vanity in the powder room, reminiscent of a bygone era, and the ceramic trough sink with narrow beadboard paneling in the lower-level bath highlight the home’s carefully curated aesthetic. The screened sleeping porch, a peaceful retreat overlooking the water, and a faux-painted barn-style exterior door add unique character to this lakefront haven.
Designed for Entertaining & Comfort
Perched on a gentle hill with panoramic lake views, the home’s second-floor porch—accessed via three sets of French doors—was designed for seamless indoor-outdoor living, perfect for entertaining. A cozy kitchen nook with three walls of glass offers a picturesque dining experience, a feature the homeowners especially cherished. The attached butler’s pantry enhances functionality, providing additional workspace while hosting guests.
