Gleaming hardwood floors with a rich walnut stain extend through the entire main level. From the spacious front foyer you enter the light filled, formal living room featuring a wood burning fireplace. You feel drawn to the heart of the home via the coffered ceilings of the center hall. A delighted "ahh" tends to escape as you see the fully remodeled kitchen featuring custom cabinetry, stunning marble countertops, a suite of high quality appliances and custom range hood. The timeless style is complimented by the functionality, storage and seating of the generous center island. Everyone is part of the action in this space, if not preparing a meal, you can relax on the cozy window seat with drawer storage below or make yourself comfortable in the family room with gas fireplace set in fieldstone and flanked by a built in components cabinet. The informal dining area is appointed with the addition of the built in buffet and display. It is also the gateway to the new maintenance free deck and darling screened porch.
From the Oversized, attached two car garage, you will step into a custom built mud room and huge walk in closet. Just outside the mudroom is a darling, covered back porch and concrete parking slab. Back inside you will be dazzled by
the multifunctional laundry space featuring an adorable wash sink, butcher block folding area and ample room for storage of your larger kitchen appliances. A darling 1/2 bath rounds out the main floor.
Transitioning to the upper level via the open stairwell you will find all of this homes 4 bedrooms.
Remodeled in 2018, the seller created a private oasis in the primary suite. A wall of built in drawers and storage frame another darling window seat. You will be elated with the custom organized walk in closet, spa like primary bath with separate soaking tub, walk in shower, dual sinks and more custom built ins. A second stunning bedroom mimics the primary with a wall of closet space and wainscoting clad wall. The third and fourth bedrooms are separated by a newly added built in linen closet with two drawers and is located across the hall from the beautiful full bath.
As if this isn't enough, you still have more space to explore. The lower level amusement room offers daylight lookout windows, 9 ft ceilings, recessed lighting, LVP flooring and access to all the updated mechanicals and abundant storage.
This location couldn't be more perfect. Just off the hustle and bustle of Water and Lake Street, you can stroll down to enjoy summer music in the park in the Excelsior Commons on the shores of Lake Minnetonka.
