Steeped in Wayzata history, the Harrington/Ferndale estates have been admired for generations. Built originally as a summer home in 1902, then rebuilt in 1956, this classic Lake Minnetonka estate tells a rich story. 337 feet of lakeshore projects out on a gently curving point, providing uninterrupted, spectacular lake views from a perfect elevation. Stunning 2.22-acre grounds filled with historic trees, lush gardens and stone boathouse.
