Commanding 180-degree views across Lake Marion and Robinson Bay from a private 6-acre hilltop in Woodland, this Kyle Hunt-crafted Nantucket Shingle-Style estate offers unmatched privacy minutes from downtown Wayzata and top-rated Minnetonka schools with nearly $1M in recent upgrades delivering a like-new experience throughout.
The great room anchors the home with a wall of windows framing sweeping lake views, a tray ceiling, and custom tile fireplace. The main-floor office opens through French doors to the deck, while the sun-filled family room flows to the screened porch, wraparound deck, and stone paver patio with each space designed to keep the lake in frame. A kidney-shaped pool with wood decking and glass railings sits nestled among mature oaks, with sight lines to the water preserved from every angle.
The chef's kitchen features Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances, custom cabinetry, and a large island connected to the dining room through a striking slate-blue butler's pantry. The primary suite offers a spa-caliber marble bath, while three additional en suite bedrooms and a loft complete the upper level. The walkout lower level adds a family room with fireplace and wet bar, billiards room, and a fifth en suite bedroom.
Recent upgrades include a new cedar shingle roof, both HVAC systems, water heaters, whole-house generator, remodeled lower level, new wood flooring, and a full electronics package with 16-zone Sonos and three home theater systems.
