Extraordinary opportunity to live surrounded by Lake Minnetonka! This property features over 100 feet of quiet water shoreline for a year-round dock and canopy, plus an additional 70 feet of sandy shoreline with a beach area, fire pit, and private swimming hole right off your back deck. The interior was beautifully remodeled in 2021, boasting new Cambria countertops, fresh interior and exterior paint, a refreshed primary bath, new doors and trim, a backup generator, and a hot tub—plus much more. Designed for both living and entertaining, the home includes a lower-level pub with heated floors, four bedrooms upstairs, and an additional living room with stunning lake views. A spacious top-floor bonus room offers even more flexibility. Don’t miss the recently insulated and sheetrocked loft above the garage—ideal for a private office or workout space.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
