The Cottage Revival

Nestled on the shores of Lake Winnipesaukee, this multi‑generational island cottage underwent a complete transformation—preserving its character while elevating it into a year‑round retreat. The remodel reimagined every element of the home, blending craftsmanship, comfort, and connection to the surrounding landscape.

Outside In Construction partnered with the homeowners through a complete Design & Build process, managing every stage from concept to completion. Our in‑house design team developed all plans, layouts, and visualizations, ensuring that every detail—from structural revisions to finish selections—aligned with the clients’ vision and the unique demands of island living.

Working on Keniston Island presented distinct logistical challenges: limited access, material transport by boat, and coordination across water. Despite these complexities, our team executed the project with professionalism and a beautiful finished product. The result stands as a testament to our ability to deliver precision craftsmanship even in remote, difficult‑to‑reach locations.

The Keniston Island remodel stands as a testament to thoughtful design and craftsmanship—honoring the cottage’s history while preparing it for generations to come. Every detail, from the timber accents to the lakeside stonework, reflects the balance between rustic charm and modern comfort, achieved through Outside In Construction’s integrated Design & Build approach.
