Lake Oconee Retreat: From Dead to Delightful

A once-tired 1980’s lake house on Lake Oconee has been transformed into a stunning waterfront retreat, blending modern comforts with rustic charm and coastal flair.

The renovation touched every corner of the home:

  • Living room: The dated fireplace received a sleek makeover, becoming a focal point that marries warmth and style,

  • Kitchen: Reimagined for both functionality and aesthetics, now a gathering spot for family and friends.

  • New Owner’s Suite: Created to provide a private oasis with lake views.

  • Guest spaces: Both the bedroom and bathroom were updated to offer visitors a comfortable, inviting stay.

Throughout the home, clever touches bring the lake inside:

  • Repaired boat oars serve as unique stair handrails, adding character and whimsy.

  • A coastal/lake theme is woven throughout, with smoothing blue accents echoing the waters of Lake Oconee.

Carefully chosen antique furniture pieces add depth and history to the fresh, updated spaces.

The result is a harmonious blend of old and new, where modern amenities coexist with vintage charm. This revitalized lake house now stands ready to create new memories, its refreshed spaces inviting relaxation and enjoyment of lakeside living at its finest.

“I cannot say enough good things about out time working with the Pellegrino’s on our home renovation project,  I simply gave them ideas on what I liked and they just went with it.  The ending result was exactly what I wanted and so much more.  they even took inspiration for something done by one of my grandsons, and it meant more to me than I can say.  They are extremely knowledgeable and reliable.  Treated our home as if it was their own and would use them again and again if needed,"
