Situated on a south-facing property on Lake of Bays near Baysville, Ontario, this two storey home has a walk-out basement on the lake side and was designed to take in the views year round. With teenaged children and a large extended family they wanted more space to accommodate guests and living spaces on each floor for a variety of different activities. They also planned to spend more time there when they retire and wanted flexility to allow them to do so in their retirement years. Their wish list included bedrooms for their children, guest room, a master suite one the ground floor (initially a guest room but will become the master when they can no longer climb the stairs) and a more luxurious master suite on the second floor to be used now. They wanted a games room with TV on the lowest level, a living room with large wood burning fireplace on the main floor, ample dining space for large family meals and a well appointment kitchen. There is also a living space A screened porch is a requirement in cottage country and they had come to love their hot tub, which is now a feature in the screened porch. There is also a lovely deck off the second floor sitting area that provides a wonderful view of the lake. The large overhang on the south side shades the interiors at the hottest time of year. The two storey living room space features floor to ceiling glass and connects the two volumes. The curtain wall wraps the kitchen, providing a panoramic view of the lake while the banquette provides a cozy spot to dine or read. Mahogany interior walls and ceilings adds warmth and richness to the interior spaces, balanced with areas of white to reflect the light where its needed. In spite of the volume the spaces are comfortable and tranquil, a wonderful respite at the lake.

Contemporary Blue Verandah Design Ideas

A contemporary verandah requires careful planning because it is here that you transition from the outside of your home to the inside. A roofed and open, or partly open, portion of a house, a verandah is more than just an entryway to your house. It is here you can play games, sit on a swing chair while sipping lemonade, chat to neighbours, and watch the world go by. Browse the photos on Houzz to see how you can breathe life back into your contemporary verandah, or build one onto your home with form and function in mind. You’ll find inspiration for Queenslander verandahs, those with flat, curved, concave and gabled roofs, as well as ideas for flooring and balustrades, to suit all styles of homes, big and small. If you want to dig a little deeper, make sure you check out the Stories or Advice section on Houzz, too.

What style of verandah should I add to my home?

This will be primarily dictated by your budget, space and overall style of your home. Typically, contemporary verandahs are integrated into a home’s roofline, so they will most likely always be a pricey renovation. Flat or skillion-roofed verandahs are popular home additions because they can be shaped to fit most house plans, or extend out to other zones, like a pool, for example. A pitched/gabled or curved roof will give you more height and a more open feel, while a concave roof looks best on a verandah attached to a period home. If you need advice, check out our directory of architects.

How can I decorate my contemporary verandah?

Your verandah decor should reflect your personality and lifestyle, but most importantly, how you will use the space. If you want it to encourage lounging and people watching, add a hammock, swing chair or daybed – the more seating you have, the more likely you are to use it with friends. Get more from your verandah by including a dining table and chairs, with some feature pendant lighting to draw attention to the zone. You could also go beyond seating, by adding the likes of a console or planters. If you’re spoilt with a view, you can also keep it utterly simple with just two comfy armchairs to sink back into. Add colour through wall hangings, potted plants, pillows and rugs, but remember to opt for fabrics that are waterproof and fade-resistant. If you're unsure, get help from a designer!
