A stunning full renovation where timeless 1900s charm meets 2025 luxury on 150 feet of prime Minnetonka Beach lake shore. Completely reimagined from the studs up, this exquisite home preserves its early 1900s character while being fully modernized to today’s highest standards. Thoughtfully redesigned by acclaimed Lake Minnetonka architect Mike Sharratt, every inch of this 18-month renovation was crafted to maximize breathtaking lake views from as many rooms as possible. Highlights include: An expansive kitchen with a Wolf 48” range, Sub-Zero refrigerator, oversized walk-in pantry, built-in 8-person dining banquette, and a large island with seating for four. Formal dining room includes a dedicated bar area with sink, Sub-Zero 100-bottle wine fridge, and beverage coolers. Other main floor highlights include main floor laundry room with sink and custom cabinetry, 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms and a one of a kind 46 foot wide screened in porch with priceless views.
The exceptional upper level primary suite spans more than 40+ feet of lake-facing windows for panoramic views of Lafayette Bay, Big Island and
walks out to a private 600+ square foot, maintenance free sun deck. Other features of the primary suite include a 225’ walk-in closet with custom cabinetry, an incredibly spacious primary tiled bath with separate vanities, tiled shower, soaking tub and 2nd laundry room.
The lower levels are highlighted by a fully finished “man cave” with full bar, massive beverage refrigerator, multiple flat screen TVs, ready for game day or movie night. Custom mudroom with built-in lockers for everyday functionality.
