About The Listing

This charming rambler with lower level walk-out to the lake is all about the lake views! From the moment you step foot in the front door you encounter stunning panoramic views of Forest Lake Bay on Lake Minnetonka from nearly every room in the house.

The heart of the home is the main floor great room which flows gently into an elevated dining area, charming 3-season sun porch with windows on three sides, and a large outdoor deck-- all of which boast sweeping views of the lake. The main floor primary bedroom is a serene space featuring its own en suite bath, complete with jet tub, walk-in shower; a walk-in closet; and more relaxing lake views! Two additional bedrooms & another full bath are located on the main floor.

A large 4th bedroom, featuring a second en suite bath, is located on the lower walk-out level, perfect for guests or a family member seeking more privacy or independence. The kitchen is a welcoming and spacious gathering space, complete with a center island, abundant cabinetry, stainless appliances, room for a casual dining table, and a lovely built-in desk with its own view of the lake.

The expansive lake views continue from all rooms on the lower level. A large family/amusement room is perfect for entertaining and features an enormous picture window looking directly out to the lake; a 2nd fireplace; a wet bar; and plenty of extra room for a pool table, art studio or office. Two sets of glass doors admit loads of natural light and walk-out to a large wrap-around deck with a charming porch swing and, you guessed it, more spectacular views! Beyond the expansive lawn, nearly half of this special 1+ acre lot is wooded, creating a natural privacy buffer, perfect for a woodland garden, trail to the pond, or perhaps expansion or the construction of an out-building. Your unobstructed views extend to the shoreline and across the lake.
