The Primary Suite
The Main Level
Briarwood Cottage is a concept home designed by the team at Lindsay Laine Interiors and offered by Danielle Clement Homes realtors. It is a retreat designed as a complete lifestyle property, where architecture, interiors, and experience come together with intention. Rich wood tones, vaulted ceilings, and natural materials create a warm, layered interior anchored by a thoughtfully designed kitchen and great room.
The design begins with the idea that a home should be more than beautiful. It is designed from the ground up as a complete lifestyle property. It is one rooted in gathering, retreat, and the natural rhythm of life on the lake. It draws from a heritage sensibility, natural wood, softened architectural lines, and a restrained palette layered with intention. While the name evokes a sense of charm and ease, the home itself is quietly expansive in both experience and design. Every space is shaped to feel grounded and enduring, revealing itself slowly through warmth, detail, and the way it lives over time.
a complete lifestyle new build
Briarwood Cottage
With nearly 12 private acres set along a quiet drive just off West Lake Road, positioned to capture expansive, unobstructed views of the lake below. Rather than traditional waterfront, the property offers something more elevated: a true vista experience. It’s ideally suited for the buyer who values privacy, land, and long-range views—someone drawn to the beauty of the lake without the demands of direct shoreline living.
The setting allows for a range of lifestyle possibilities. With ample acreage, there is opportunity for a thoughtfully designed farmette, outbuildings, gardens, or recreational use—creating a property that can be both refined and deeply personal. The surrounding area reflects this same spirit. Neighboring properties include established homes with outbuildings and even a working farm producing fresh eggs and produce, reinforcing a sense of quiet, rural luxury.
Located just moments from German Brothers Marina and nearly within walking distance, the property offers easy access to boating and lake life without the added cost, maintenance, or tax implications of waterfront ownership. Briarwood is best suited for a luxury buyer seeking space, privacy, and a commanding view. This property is for someone who values the landscape as much as the home itself, and who understands that true luxury is often found in perspective.
Setting + Site
Entry + Kitchen + Pantry
The cabinetry is fully panel-ready, allowing the entire space to read as one continuous composition rather than a collection of appliances and parts. Everything is integrated, concealed, and considered. Just beyond, the kitchen opens into a cheerful pantry designed with both beauty and function in mind, abundant storage layered with thoughtful accessibility. Flanking the range, glass-front cabinetry extends down to the countertop, detailed with oversized brass cremone bolts. These moments introduce a quiet elegance while offering a place to display collected pieces such as cookbooks, glassware, dishware bring personality and softness into the architecture.
The kitchen flows seamlessly into the gathering room, allowing the entire space to function as one cohesive environment. It is not just a place to cook, but a place to live, to gather, to connect, and to be fully at ease.
The kitchen is designed to feel like an embrace, wrapped in warm wood detailing that extends across the ceiling, walls, and cabinetry, creating a sense of quiet intimacy and architectural cohesion. There is a softness to the space despite its scale, a warmth that immediately settles you in. A built-in nook, thoughtfully positioned just off the great room yet fully integrated into the kitchen, offers a natural gathering point. It becomes the place for morning coffee, for lingering conversations, for keeping the cook company, and everyday moments made intentional.
The Great Room
The living and dining areas flow together, creating an entertaining space that feels both grand and inviting. We designed the living room around the fireplace, which serves as the room's natural focal point. The furniture layout encourages conversation while maintaining clear pathways. In the dining area, we created a more formal setting that's still approachable and livable. The lighting in these spaces was carefully curated to create different moods. A mix of textures will be incorporated through upholstery, window treatments, and accessories. The color palette remains cohesive with the kitchen, creating a seamless visual flow throughout the entire first floor.
The Mahjong Parlor
A softer counterpoint to the great room's architectural gravitas, the Mahjong Parlor is designed for afternoons that stretch unhurried into evening. Rich pattern meets layered textile in a space that feels both collected and intentional. Where a bold wall covering sets the mood and the furnishings follow suit with warm upholstery, deep seating, and objects that need a closer look. Accent lighting casts a warm, amber glow that shifts the space from afternoon salon to evening retreat and makes it one of the most distinctive rooms in the home.
The primary suite is conceived as the home's most personal space. A sanctuary designed for deep rest and quiet restoration. Soft textures, warm wood tones, and a refined, unhurried palette are anchored by a fireplace that brings both warmth and ritual to the room. The layout gives generous room to breathe: a sitting area positioned near the hearth, windows that frame the landscape, and a sense of enclosure that feels protective rather than confining.
Every material choice in the suite reinforces a single intention, that waking up here should feel like the best part of the day. The adjoining bath carries the same philosophy forward, with layered stone surfaces, softened architectural edges, and fixtures chosen for both beauty and feel. Steam, soaking, and the quiet glow of natural light are all considered. It is a bathroom designed to be lingered in, not rushed through. A room that understands the luxury of a slow morning.
The Lower Level
The Lounge + Wine Room
A private lounge centered around a tailored bar and framed by dual glass-enclosed wine rooms creates an atmosphere of quiet indulgence. The symmetry of the space is immediately felt. Two climate controlled wine cabinets flanking the central bar in perfect architectural balance, their glass faces revealing curated collections within. Rich materiality grounds the room in dark millwork, stone countertops, and upholstered seating in a warm, comfortable palette.
The Golf Suite
In the Golf Suite, the home expands into something more immersive. A fully integrated golf simulator room is wrapped in warm paneling and tailored detailing, balancing recreation with design. Sight lines, acoustics, and material choices have been carefully considered so the space feels refined and enveloping. The golf suite is equally suited for practice, play, or simply enjoying the experience. It is not a secondary space, it's a destination within the home.
The Bunk Room
Tucked within the lower level, the bunk room introduces a sense of nostalgia and charm without sacrificing an ounce of design intention. Custom built-in sleeping quarters are crafted with the same millwork detailing found throughout the home — arched or paneled openings that give each bunk its own sense of enclosure and privacy, like a small room within the room. Every berth has its own reading light, a small shelf for books and treasured objects, and a curtain or door that can be drawn for a sense of seclusion.
The guest bedroom is thoughtfully situated on the lower level, offering both privacy and a sense of retreat. With a full en-suite bath, it functions as a complete, self-contained space, deal for extended stays or hosting with ease. Positioned alongside the home’s wine bar and golf suite, the room becomes part of a larger, experience-driven level designed for relaxation and enjoyment. It allows guests to feel both connected to the home’s amenities and comfortably tucked away.
