2 buildable lots; Exceptional redevelopment opportunity in one of Mendota Heights' most desirable neighborhoods. This beautiful property features a charming old farmhouse situated on a large lot surrounded by mature trees, offering incredible flexibility for builders, developers, or buyers looking to create a custom home. The existing farm house could be a great ADU or guest home still leaving room to build an impressive new home.
The lot presents the rare opportunity to be divided into two separate buildable homesites (subject to city approval), making it an ideal investment in an area experiencing continued growth and luxury redevelopment. Alternatively, preserve the expansive setting and build one extraordinary custom estate on a generous homesite with ample space for outdoor living, a pool, or additional amenities.
Located across from a neighborhood park and surrounded by impressive newer luxury homes, this property is perfectly positioned to capitalize on the strong demand for new construction in Mendota Heights. Enjoy a peaceful, established setting with convenient access to parks, trails, top-rated schools, shopping, dining, and both downtown Minneapolis and St. Paul.
Whether your vision is two distinctive new homes or one exceptional estate, this is a rare opportunity to secure a premier homesite in a highly sought-after location.
