Wake with the sunrise. Spend your days on the water. End every evening beneath the trees. This is Lake Minnewashta at its very best. There are lake homes…and then there are homes that become part of your family's story. Tucked beneath a canopy of mature trees along 65 feet of northeast-facing shoreline, this exceptional Lake Minnewashta retreat offers a rare blend of privacy, breathtaking views, and effortless lake living. From the moment you walk through the front door, your eyes are drawn to the sparkling water beyond. Nearly every gathering space is oriented toward the lake, creating a seamless connection between indoors and out. Surrounded by towering trees, the home has the unmistakable feeling of living in a private treehouse overlooking the water. Whether you're sharing breakfast as the morning sun rises over the lake, curling up by the fire with snow falling outside, or hosting friends with the deck doors open on a summer evening, the ever-changing landscape becomes the backdrop to everyday life. The thoughtfully designed main level offers a spacious primary suite, dedicated office (or fifth bedroom), formal dining room, comfortable living spaces, and a welcoming kitchen that flows naturally into the informal dining area and great room—allowing family and guests to remain connected while the lake remains the focal point. Just off the primary suite, a beautiful four-season porch offers one of the home's most peaceful retreats. Accessible from both the bedroom and the deck, it's the perfect place to enjoy morning coffee, watch eagles soar overhead, or simply lose track of time as the light dances across the water. The walkout lower level was made for weekends at the lake. An expansive recreation room anchored by a second fireplace provides generous space for movie nights, game days, and gatherings after a day on the water. Three additional bedrooms, a large full bath, and a versatile bonus room—ideal for a fitness studio, craft room, or bunk room—offer flexibility for family and overnight guests alike. A charming brick patio welcomes you to the shoreline, while a long dock stretches into the clear waters of Lake Minnewashta. Spend summer afternoons swimming, paddleboarding, boating, or casting a fishing line before gathering around the patio as the day comes to a close. A lakeside boathouse provides convenient storage for paddleboards, kayaks, fishing gear, and all the essentials for a day on the water. Additional highlights include an insulated and heated attached garage, two fireplaces, a walkout lower level, and a setting that offers exceptional privacy while remaining just minutes from downtown Excelsior, Victoria, and Chanhassen.
