Welcome to a truly exceptional property - 33 private acres nestled in Minnesota’s storied Big Woods, where towering 200-year-old oaks, maples, and other hardwoods surround a masterfully crafted residence with over 1,000 feet of private shoreline. From the moment you arrive, quality and craftsmanship are unmistakable. The bluestone porch welcomes you with a warm, arched tongue-and-groove wood ceiling, setting the tone for what lies beyond. Step inside to a light-filled foyer and gaze through the circular dining room and inviting living room, where floor-to-ceiling windows frame panoramic views of the lake. Watch blue herons fish at dawn, eagles soar above the trees, and swans glide across glimmering water, a living painting seen from nearly every room. The home features exquisite attention to detail inside and out, including custom cabinetry and trim work designed by Rehkamp Larson Architects that elevate every space. Classic white millwork and rich hardwood floors lend an air of timeless sophistication. At the heart of the home is a light-filled chef’s kitchen, complete with top-tier appliances, oversized island, custom cabinetry, and large walk-in pantry, ideal for both entertaining and everyday living. Upstairs, a dedicated office with custom cherry built-ins, fireplace, and white oak floors offers a quiet space to work or reflect. The adjoining cherry wood library and Juliet balcony overlook the living room, an excellent spot to launch paper airplanes. The luxurious primary suite is your private retreat, with a fireplace, arched bookcase, and a spa-like en-suite bath featuring dual vanities, a two-person cast-iron soaking tub, and walk-in shower. The walk-out lower level is designed for connection, entertainment, and year-round enjoyment, with a spacious family room, game room, and wet bar. Warm oak woodwork, a stone wood-burning fireplace, and in-floor heating complete the cozy, lodge feel. The oversized, heated two-stall garage features epoxy floors. A 40 x 60 pole shed offers storage for vehicles, boats, toys, or horses. And for outdoor enthusiasts, the property is a haven for deer, ducks, geese, and wild turkey—making it a prime location for wildlife observation or hunting. Stroll the wooded trails year-round or X country ski in the winter. This rare legacy property offers the perfect blend of luxury, privacy and natural beauty, just a short drive from the metro area, yet a world away.
