Custom Home Design: Highland Park’s Unique Offerings

With its lofty position on the bluff above Lake Michigan, this bespoke home enjoys both panoramic vistas and the comforts of a distinctively modern build.

It is owned by an empty-nester couple who came to us in search of a relaxing and welcoming residence in which to host their growing, multi-generational family. The structure’s clean-lined plan extends along the bluff itself, shaped by large expanses of sliding glass that bring the outside in. A sequestered front façade creates a sense of privacy, whilst each living space opens out to a series of landscaped terraces overlooking the water. There is a perceptible ease of flow in and out of the house, creating natural gathering points whilst revealing spectacular views across the lake. Upon first glance of the infinity pool and open cabana, visitors may be fooled into thinking that they have arrived at a resort rather than a residence.
