Nestled among mature trees on a gently sloping lot, this beautifully updated home offers enchanting views of Lotus Lake and an exceptional lifestyle. Steps from the home, an adjacent trail leads to a charming fishing dock and Carver Beach, where you can swim, picnic, kayak, or boat on beautiful Lotus Lake. Up north living 2 miles from the town of Excelsior and minutes from major freeways.
Located in the highly sought-after Minnetonka School District, this home was partially rebuilt in 2011, and the current owner has thoughtfully completed extensive interior and exterior updates throughout.
A welcoming front porch opens into an open-concept living, dining, and kitchen area. The main level also features a spacious bedroom, a full bathroom, and a back porch. There is a separate 16 x 16 foot four season studio space behind the home, adding an additional 256 feet of year round living space.
Upstairs, you'll find two additional bedrooms and a 3/4 bathroom. One bedroom is nonconforming. The seller can add a wall and door to create a conforming third bedroom if desired. Ample room exists for future expansion of this home.
With stunning lake views, modern updates, nearby recreation, and an unbeatable location, Lotus Lake Overlook is a rare opportunity to enjoy lakeside living in a beautifully refreshed home at a reasonable price.
Front yard Hill virtually staged to reflect work yet to be done. Landscaping is still in progress.
