Every so often a home comes along where the site and the architecture were clearly made for each other. The GLASS HOUSE at Lot 25 in Canoe Bay Village is one of those. It sits on a gentle rise on one of the premier sites in the village, looking out over Lost Lake with sweeping views straight down the length of the water. A spectacular 30-foot wall of glass fills the home with natural light and keeps the lake front and center from nearly everywhere inside. It came fully furnished and move-in ready, with no HOA fees and no property taxes — and it found its buyers within about a day of this post going live. The walk-through below still shows what made Lot 25 special. Let’s take a look inside.
A Premier Elevated Site Overlooking Lost Lake
Position matters enormously on a small lake, and this one sits about as well as a home can. Set on a gentle rise above the shoreline, the GLASS HOUSE looks down the long axis of Lost Lake rather than straight across it — which means the view stretches instead of stopping. The elevation also lifts the living space up into the tree canopy, so you get water and woods together. Seen from the far shore at dusk, the home reads as a warm band of light tucked into the trees.
A Spectacular 30-Foot Wall of Glass
The name is not marketing shorthand — the great room really is wrapped in roughly 30 feet of glass. Large picture windows run the full length of the living and dining space, wrapping the corner so the lake is visible from the couch, the dining table, and the kitchen alike. A recessed maple soffit with cove lighting softens the ceiling line at night, and a ceiling fan keeps air moving in the warmer months. The result is a room that feels far larger than its footprint, because the eye never stops at a wall.
A Great Room Built for Real Evenings
Turn away from the glass and the room works just as hard. A large sectional wraps a glass-topped coffee table and faces a built-in fireplace with an oversized Smart TV mounted above it, flanked by open maple shelving for books and small things.
A Modern Kitchen with Premium Finishes
The kitchen runs along one wall and is finished to a standard you would expect in a much larger home. Maple shaker cabinetry pairs with light quartz countertops, a deep undermount sink sits below a window, and the appliance package is full-size throughout: a stainless dishwasher, an induction cooktop, an over-range microwave, and a tall refrigerator with a bottom freezer. A floor-to-ceiling pantry cabinet at the end of the run handles dry goods, and open shelving keeps everyday items within reach.
A Generous Screened Porch
The screened porch is one of the best rooms in the house. Lined floor to ceiling in warm cedar with a vaulted ceiling, it looks straight out at the water through full-height screens. A wide glass door opens directly into the great room, so on a good day the porch and the interior become one continuous space. This is where the home earns its keep from spring through fall — coffee in the morning, dinner at golden hour, and no bugs.
A Private King Bedroom Suite
The king bedroom sits at the far end of the home for privacy and is beautifully detailed. A built-in maple headboard wall carries integrated reading lights and a display shelf, with a clerestory window above it pulling in daylight without sacrificing privacy. A tray ceiling with a fan adds height, and a run of mirrored sliding doors conceals a large closet while visually doubling the room. A frosted glass door leads through to the bath.
Waking Up to the Water
Here is the detail that sells the room. From the foot of the bed, floor-to-ceiling corner windows frame Lost Lake through the trees, with a glass door leading outside on the right. The glass-house concept carries all the way to the pillow — you do not have to get up to see the view.
A Spacious Bath with a Custom Tiled Shower
The bath is bigger than most park-model bathrooms and better finished. A maple vanity with a quartz counter sits under a large mirror and a linear light bar, with a full-height linen cabinet alongside for towels and storage — plus an operable privacy window for ventilation. A stacked washer and dryer are included in the home.
The shower itself is the standout: a full-size custom tiled enclosure in a natural stone-look tile, with built-in corner shelves and a framed glass door. It feels like a proper bathroom rather than a compromise.
