Shingle details and handsome stone accents give this traditional carriage house the look of days gone by while maintaining all of the convenience of today. The goal for this home was to maximize the views of the lake and this three-story home does just that. With multi-level porches and an abundance of windows facing the water. The exterior reflects character, timelessness, and architectural details to create a traditional waterfront home.
The exterior details include curved gable rooflines, crown molding, limestone accents, cedar shingles, arched limestone head garage doors, corbels, and an arched covered porch. Objectives of this home were open living and abundant natural light. This waterfront home provides space to accommodate entertaining, while still living comfortably for two. The interior of the home is distinguished as well as comfortable.
Graceful pillars at the covered entry lead into the lower foyer. The ground level features a bonus room, full bath, walk-in closet, and garage. Upon entering the main level, the south-facing wall is filled with numerous windows to provide the entire space with lake views and natural light. The hearth room with a coffered ceiling and covered terrace opens to the kitchen and dining area.
The best views were saved on the upper level for the master suite. Third-floor of this traditional carriage house is a sanctuary featuring an arched opening covered porch, two walk-in closets, and an en suite bathroom with a tub and shower.

Step into this stunning open-concept home, where earthy tones and nature-inspired elements blend seamlessly. The kitchen boasts the distinguished character of Natural Quarter-Sawn White Oak cabinets, complemented by inviting earthy green painted cabinets. As one of our popular skinny shaker doors, the Reese door style adds a sleek and modern touch to this beautifully designed kitchen. Reese is known for its thin, shallow, minimalistic rails.
Abundant natural light pours in, illuminating the spacious alcove cooking area and white walls, creating a bright and airy atmosphere without relying on white painted cabinets. The floating shelves by the window are perfect for showcasing the homeowner’s favorite plants, succulents, or fresh herbs, bringing a touch of authentic greenery to the space. The appliance panels help seamlessly conceal the typically large metal appliances with the warmth of natural quarter-sawn white oak.
A dedicated beverage station adjacent to the kitchen provides additional storage and entertaining space for the dining area, with cabinets and a fireplace built-in featuring the “Evergreen Fog” paint color also in the Reese door style.

Bordering on 68,000 unobstructed acres of the Bureau of Land Management, this exquisite home commands dramatic mountain & prairie views, from the majestic Sangre de Cristos to the east to the extensive stretches of the Jemez/Badlands to the west. Designed in the Mid-Century Modern vernacular ‘form follows function’ the structure presents with clean rectilinear lines, sloping roofs, and organic use of materials, incorporating steel, stone and stucco, deeply etched with endless sheets of glass, providing a seamless indoor/outdoor flow.
Distinguishing features showcase 3 sloping roofs piercing the glass with 3” tongue and groove Alaskan Yellow Cedar, bringing one continuous ceiling plane inside/out. In sharp contrast, highly polished concrete micro-slab floors glisten softly under the voluminous illumination of LED recessed lighting. Cantilevered portals, with stepped metal fascia, frame out the 3 sections of the home, as they wraparound the bold enveloping walls.
The natural use of wood, between African teak and walnut, bring warmth in both the custom interior doors and cabinetry. Most spectacular to the home’s design and connectivity, and prominently positioned in 3 key passageways, include a floor to ceiling glass atrium luxuriating in natural light between the kitchen and family room, a sleek 10 foot stretch of glass hallway connecting the master and main living wings, and a massive 600 pound cold rolled plate steel entry door, with patinaed oversized brass handle, all symmetrically, and artistically positioned for a harmonious flow.

This waterfront pool project in Beaconsfield reimagines a transitional backyard by fusing timeless warmth with crisp modern geometry. At its heart lies a custom concrete pool whose expansive beach entry pool—also known as a generous tanning ledge—slopes gently into the water, delivering the relaxed feel of a private resort. A frameless glass pool fence with low-iron panels preserves unobstructed lake vistas while ensuring safety, allowing the pool’s shimmering surface to merge visually with the open water beyond.
Anchoring the far end of the basin is a dramatic outdoor fire feature that rises directly from the waterline. By day it acts as a sculptural focal point; by night the flames ripple across the water, transforming the space into a show-stopping luxury swimming pool experience. Every contour, drainage line, and equipment specification was shaped by Northstone’s in-house landscape architect design team and executed by our 180-strong crew of specialists, reinforcing our reputation as the go-to Beaconsfield pool builder for bespoke, high-end projects.
Because Northstone is an entirely in-house design build firm, we streamline all stages—city permits, excavation, steel placement, shotcrete, and finishing—under a single roof. This turnkey approach distinguishes us among Montreal pool construction companies and ensures flawless craftsmanship in every pour. It is also why clients seeking a custom pool contractor to create a resort-style backyard consistently choose Northstone.
That commitment to quality has earned us the #1 ranking for landscaping on bestinMTL.com and the top spot for pool design-build on bestmontrealservices.com. Our work has been showcased in Dwell, House & Home, the Montreal Gazette, and Living Luxe Magazine, underscoring our status as Montreal’s premier high-end pool company for luxury outdoor living on lakefront properties.
