COTTONWOOD LAKE HOUSES 

Vacation homes 

Sunrise Beach Village, Texas 

Completed in 2021 

Developed by Brodie Builders 

These two lakehouses on Lake LBJ were conceived as variations on a theme. As vacation homes, they had the same program, but as neighbors they wanted to be distinct from each other. The result is essentially the same floor plan side-by-side, but with different rooflines, distinct interior finishes, and individualized visual character. 

 

The homes use a steel framed base to elevate them out of the floodplain and create an expansive ground level outdoor living area with minimal interruption of the lake view. The swimming pools stretch from the waterfront all the way up under the elevated structure. They feature massive great rooms with lofty ceilings and expansive glazing that look out over the water, setting up perfectly for extended family gatherings and entertaining large groups. 

 

The finishes are chosen for their richness and visual texture, to contrast with the relative simplicity of form. The soft wood grain and bold figured marble set off the clean, white volumes, providing a comfortable balance of warmth and light.
