The client bought this house because of its location on Lake Ontario in the City of Rochester. The 1952 built house was faded and didn’t feature the great views of the lake. After eight years the owners decided to update home. The interiors were opened up by removing bearing walls. The lakeside living space was expanded with a large deck abutting the existing porch. The house was given curb appeal with a masonry tower built next to the entry door to break up the horizontal lines of the old house.
