    Elegant designIncredible finishes and materialsOpen-concept main levelDesigner carpetingMultiple fireplacesDual walk-in closetsExpansive primary suite
    Luxury Brownstone in the heart of Wayzata. Inside, the incredible finishes and materials set a tone of luxury that carries throughout every room. Custom woodwork, designer carpeting, and rich, full-slab onyx marble finishes define the interiors. The kitchen is a showpiece, featuring a dramatic backlit onyx worktop, while the powder room stuns with illuminated onyx walls. Every bathroom is fully clad in stone, with the upstairs bath offering underfloor heating for added comfort. A solid brass staircase railing with tailored runners and stair rods serves as a striking focal point on the open-concept main level. Backlit tray ceilings above the piano in the main lounge add architectural drama, complementing the multiple fireplaces and elegant design. Offering uninterrupted, year-round views of Lake Minnetonka from the rooftop, this home is a rare offering in both design and location. The expansive primary suite includes a gas fireplace, spa-style walk-through bath with soaking tub, and dual walk-in closets. A flexible lower level functions perfectly as a media room or guest suite, and a rooftop deck delivers sweeping lake views—ideal for entertaining or private relaxation. Additional features include a three-story elevator, radiant in-floor heating, and easy walkability to Wayzata’s acclaimed lakefront, dining, and shopping destinations.
