The open floor plan features a chef’s Kitchen designed for entertaining — complete with a 10-foot island, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and laundry that opens to the vaulted Family Room which enjoys long lake views. Engineered wood floors span the main level, which also includes a Home Office overlooking the water and a fantastic Flex Room with a wood-burning fireplace — ideal for a library, playroom, or sitting room. An adjacent room has been roughed-in for a future full bath, offering even more potential. Two bedrooms complete the main level and include the Primary Suite, where you’ll find a clawfoot bathtub and luxurious tiled shower. Upstairs, the charm of the original home shines through in three additional bedrooms and an updated full bathroom. Downstairs you’ll find a comfortable Home Theatre with projector perfect for movie nights, a large Mud Room, and an unfinished area ready for a workshop or future expansion. There’s even a rough-in for a future bath. Outdoors, the setting is nothing short of spectacular. Surrounded by mature trees, the private backyard allows you to connect with family and friends on the large deck which spans the back of the home or relax in the gazebo while taking in the peaceful lake views. Step down to the lakeside to launch a kayak or paddleboard from the city-owned shoreline — all the benefits of lakefront living without the upkeep! Residents may apply for a dock slip through the City of Excelsior’s dock program, where the current waitlist for Hidden Lane is refreshingly short.
