Shelburne Lake House Stair Project

This Shelburne lakefront property presented a unique challenge: an extremely steep shoreline with existing access that was more like a ladder than a staircase. We worked closely with engineers to develop a safe, durable solution for navigating the significant elevation change down to Lake Champlain. The new engineered stair system incorporates multiple landings and connects directly to the existing lake access below. At the top, we built a new deck and walkway connecting the home to the stairs, creating a continuous and much more functional path from the house to the water. A challenging site that required careful planning, engineering, and coordination from top to bottom.
