About The Listing

Lake Minnetonka Entertainment Oasis; 4 BR, 4bath, on Halstad’s Bay with $1M+ of updates and upgrades by this owner since their purchase including $100k of Anderson doors and windows that provide commanding lakeside views from nearly every room in the house. Any of these rooms could be next owners’ favorite, but the envy inducing kitchen is matchless, fronted by an entertainment bar all dominated by the 12’ backdrop of floor to ceiling bow-windows. The uber appliance suite includes nearly all that Wolf and Sub-Zero have to offer. The adjacent rooms don’t play second fiddle with choices from the 2-story Sunroom, the Great room centering on the split rock fireplace or the Main Floor ensuite that opens to the magnificent deck. The approach to this private site initially winds through a family friendly n’hood before turning onto an alluring drive flanked heavy woods that protect the site.
