Some properties reward you the moment you arrive. At 20270 Excelsior Boulevard, two private acres slope toward the quiet waters of Foot Lake, framed by mature hardwoods and professionally curated grounds. This is Shorewood at its finest: an elevated, park-like homesite offering panoramic water views and absolute seclusion, yet located just minutes from the dining and energy of downtown Excelsior and the Lake Minnetonka LRT Regional Trail. Lakefront parcels of this scale are functionally irreplaceable in this corridor—offering the rare duality of a private country estate with immediate access to top-tier amenities and the award-winning Minnetonka School District. Originally built in 2006 and comprehensively reimagined with over one million dollars in recent improvements, this six-bedroom, seven-bath residence has been transformed by an owner who understood that true luxury lives in the details. The result is a home that feels effectively brand new. Quarter-sawn white oak hardwood floors run throughout, grounding expansive living spaces in warmth and continuity. A striking main staircase—completely rebuilt with custom millwork and refined proportions—anchors the interior, establishing a design language of timeless sophistication. The expanded floor plan now features six spacious bedrooms, five of which offer private en-suite baths. This rare layout includes a newly added guest wing with a stunning all-marble bath, providing exceptional flexibility for multigenerational living or hosting long-term guests in complete comfort. Beneath the aesthetic beauty lies a fortress of modern infrastructure—a level of renewal that would take years to replicate. A new architectural roof with 50-year shingles, 1 new high-efficiency furnace and boiler, whole-home humidification, and Wirsbo in-floor radiant heat deliver consistent comfort through every Minnesota season. A whole-home natural gas generator ensures uninterrupted power, while comprehensive reverse osmosis water treatment and softening systems provide exceptional water quality. The attached four-car garage features a dedicated EV charging station. These are not just upgrades; they represent years of worry-free ownership. The outdoor living environment rivals a private resort. Expansive decks and patios surround a saltwater pool equipped with updated filtration and heating, while a screened hot tub retreat tucked beneath the deck offers a year-round sanctuary. A newly installed dock and maintenance-free lighted stairway provide effortless access to the water, perfect for kayaking, paddleboarding, or simply enjoying the serenity of the lake. Selective tree removal has opened sweeping views while preserving the canopy that defines the property’s character. Two acres on the water. A turnkey masterpiece in a premier location.
