Tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac on a wooded lot that lives like a private retreat, this sprawling walkout rambler blends serenity, updates, and remarkable flexibility. Mature oaks, perennial gardens, and a charming arbor frame the arrival, while inside, sun-filled living and dining rooms flow with ease. The beautifully remodeled kitchen shines with white cabinetry, granite counters, stainless appliances, and a center island, opening to a warm hearth room anchored by a brick gas fireplace. Just beyond, the vaulted screen porch with skylight delivers treetop views that make every morning coffee feel like a getaway. Main-level bedrooms — including a primary suite — and a handsome office with built-ins make one-level living effortless.
The walkout lower level surprises with a spacious family room, second kitchen, and flexible spaces perfect for guests, multigenerational living, or working from home. The lower-level kitchen is said to have been the birthplace of a recipe development business founded by the home's original owner, a Pillsbury product developer and cookbook author. From here, she created recipes for major food companies and welcomed clients in the adjoining dining room—today's exercise room. Below the deck, a shaded patio with porch swing overlooks fern-lined hillside gardens, and a storybook playhouse waits in the woods beyond. Rarely does a setting this private pair with updates this thoughtful — a true haven at the end of the lane. Neighborhood amenities include a private tennis/pickleball court, with nearby trails and recreation at Hyland Lake Park Reserve and Normandale Lake Park.
