This private boathouse was built by Altius Architecture, Inc on Lake Joseph in Parry Sound, Canada. Made in the image of a classic Muskoka boathouse, the new construction has rooms for two boats on the lower level and a living area upstairs. The design also features a second-floor balcony, a raised walkway, and a spacious deck that holds enough chairs for a party. Intended for seasonal use, the boathouse welcomes people outside, where they can take in the lakeside views and feel the breeze.
