Discover an exceptional private estate where sophistication meets serenity. This contemporary, custom-crafted residence is perfectly positioned on 13.92 acres of pristine landscape, offering sweeping views of tranquil wetlands, mature woods, and the rippling waters of Lake Minnetonka. A long, secluded drive sets the tone for the privacy and grandeur that await.
Designed for refined main-level living, the home showcases soaring vaulted ceilings, dramatic walls of glass, and sun-filled spaces that blur the line between indoors and the natural beauty beyond. Thoughtful architectural details—such as a striking Steele fireplace, repurposed leather-accented office walls, and dry-stack steel tile surrounds—create a truly distinctive and artful living environment.
The walkout lower level is an entertainer’s dream, featuring a spacious family room, theater with stadium-style seating, game room, second kitchen/wet bar, and multiple walkouts for effortless flow to the outdoors. Step outside to your personal resort, complete with an in-ground pool, tennis court, fire pit, and endless views of untouched nature. Additional luxury features include exquisite craftsmanship, rich wood flooring, enameled millwork, a serene primary suite with dual baths, vanities and closets, a two-story screened porch, multiple decks, and an oversized three-car heated garage with pet wash station. For those who enjoy homegrown bounty and a private orchard experience the estate includes apple, pear, and plum trees—along with visits from the local wildlife.
Fewer than 20 lake properties of 10+ acres remain in the area; this is an exceptionally rare opportunity to purchase nearly 14 acres located on the West-end of North Arm Bay.
With its combination of privacy, acreage, and architectural distinction—plus the option to subdivide into two additional buildable lots—this property offers an unmatched opportunity to create a personal legacy retreat.
