North Arm Retreat reflects Stonewood’s approach to lakeside living, where modern architecture is grounded in its setting and shaped by thoughtful design. Based in Wayzata, Minnesota, we created this custom home to feel calm, connected, and enduring, with a strong relationship to the surrounding landscape.
Defined by clean lines and expansive windows, the home captures natural light and frames views of the water throughout. The architecture remains intentional and restrained, allowing each space to feel open while maintaining a sense of warmth through materiality and proportion.
The main living areas are organized with a natural flow, connecting kitchen, dining, and living spaces in a way that supports both daily routines and gathering. The kitchen anchors the home with a balance of function and presence, while carefully selected finishes introduce depth and texture.
Private spaces offer a quieter experience, designed for comfort and retreat. Seamless transitions to the outdoors extend the living environment, reinforcing the connection to the lake. North Arm Retreat is a home defined by clarity, warmth, and a strong sense of place.
