Utterly spectacular 1.1-acre lot with professional landscaping throughout. Enjoy the perfect combination of beautiful level lawn and deep woods with mature trees.

Gracious and spacious foyer greets your guests (note the new hickory floors throughout the main level).

The open concept everyone covets (and catch a glimpse of the amazing vaulted sunroom beyond the informal dining space).

Stunning main level family room. The entire main level was gutted to the studs in 2016 and renovated, including the great built-ins and completely new gas fireplace with stone surround.

Another view of the main level family room. Oversized windows (nearly all have been replaced over the last decade) really showcase the incredible setting.

These photos don't even begin to do justice to the incredible kitchen! Custom cabinetry, high-end appliances, stunning granite counters, this space is sure to be the heart of this home.

Loads of storage (including the full pantry wall on the right), vast counter space, and room for everyone.

Solid hickory flooring, recessed lighting, and private views of the 1+acre lot from the kitchen sink.

Wow! Surrounded by nature, you'll absolutely love this 4-season space. With easy access to the kitchen and a great flow to the deck, this gorgeous sunroom is the ideal retreat.

Note the gorgeous, private views surrounding the backyard.

Spacious two-tiered deck overlooks the beautiful yard (photo taken in the fall of 2024).

Back inside, the light and bright formal dining room is ready for dinner parties!

Don't need a formal dining space? The location of this room would also be great as a playroom or home office.

Neutral palette throughout, with high-quality updates at every turn.

The entire home has been renovated by the current, long-term owners, with no corners cut. From the solid hickory flooring, to the custom window treatments, to the new (no popcorn!) ceilings, this home is high-class all the way.

This perfect powder bath (also fully renovated) completes the main level, along with main level laundry and mudroom (not pictured).

The upper level boasts four generously-sized bedrooms, with new carpet and fresh paint. The gorgeous primary suite has vaulted ceilings, an enormous walk-in closet, and spa-like owners' suite.

The primary bathroom was fully renovated in 2016, with heated floors, dual vanities, custom tile, and solid-surface counters.

Another view of the spacious primary bathroom.

Fresh paint and newer carpet throughout.

Four bedrooms up, each with spacious closet space.

The upper level hall bathroom was totally renovated in 2016 with custom tilework, new fixtures, a beautiful vanity, and solid-surface counters.

Escape to the walkout lower level, with recessed lighting and room to play! Don't miss the oversized door (new in 2020) to the incredible screened porch and gorgeous backyard.

The 5th bedroom (located in the lower level) is currently used as an exercise space.

This 3/4 bathroom in the lower level is perfect for guests. Completing the lower level are two large storage rooms!

The exterior of the home is just as beautiful as the interior. This stunning porch was fully renovated in 2020, boasting custom retractable screens; a new aluminum ceiling; and Timbertech legacy (no maintenance) floorboards.

Enjoy a true indoor/outdoor experience with custom "DuraScreen" retractable screens (shown halfway retracted in this photo). Easy flow from the lower level to the outdoor living spaces, complete with gas firepit. An entertainer's dream!

The custom paver patio (with gas firepit), stone stairs, and low-maintenance landscaping have all been professionally added in the last 10 years. Note the vast level lawn, and loads of mature trees. The 1.1-acre lot extends well into the woods.

Another view of the custom patio, taken in the fall of 2024. Note the incredible privacy!

Less than 3 blocks to the west is the newly-redone Silverwood Park (an easy walk using the path just across the street from the home).

Silverwood Park boasts all new playground equipment and a picnic pavillion.

For a slightly longer adventure, hop on the trail to Covington Park (just take the sidewalk down Vine Hill one block to Manchester).

At Covington Park, you'll find play equipment, tennis, pickleball, soccer, basketball, and more!

Enjoy all the Minnetonka Schools has to offer. The house is within the boundaries of Clear Springs Elementary, Minnetonka Middle School West, and Minnetonka High School.
