There are few more idyllic places than Lake Martin, the vast reservoir that stretches across Tallapoosa, Elmore, and Coosa counties in Alabama. With 750 miles of wooded shoreline, it’s such a desirable spot that it turned the heads of a family who had planned to relocate to Hawaii, instead choosing this destination over the golden sunshine and sands of the Pacific.
‘The family wanted a place where the children could enjoy long summer weekends and fell in love with the relaxed way of life this area offers,’ says Mack Braden, VP at Christopher Architecture & Interiors, who oversaw this house design and fit-out. ‘So we designed it around the concept of family time off – with bunk rooms, rec rooms, and a place to jump off the rooftop straight into the lake.’
