A down to the studs remodel by Landschute has created a masterpiece with quintessential old world charm throughout. Enjoy a perfect blend of modern conveniences while retaining a nod to the original 1892 architecture. The house was substantially remodeled in 2010 which included new framing, HVAC, plumbing, 95% of the electrical, siding, and all interior finishing. This beautiful estate features a 4,769 sq. ft. home, boat house on the waters edge, half acre of land abutting Sandy Beach, a flat playable yard, 125' of lakeshore and a uniquely private setting wrapped in gorgeous gardens and mature canopy around the perimeter.
Located within coveted Cottagewood -- just steps to Sandy Beach, the historic General Store, tennis courts, playgrounds, and the Lake Minnetonka LRT Regional Trail. Minutes to charming downtown Excelsior.
