At this special family home near Excelsior, there's a lot for your family to fall in love with, starting with the stunning one-acre wooded site. The large back deck provides a relaxing, private setting overseeing the gorgeous gardens and stately trees. Step into the four-season porch and imagine comfortable, all-year-round activities and quiet moments surrounded by nature. The owner's 30 years of TLC in this home come through in the excellent care inside and out, with updates including new roof, water heater and garage door, plus radon mitigation and whole-house Generac generator. Two wood-burning fireplaces, a sauna, office and game area off the family room all add to the charm and amenities. Outside, take a short walk to Lake Minnetonka and Howards Point Marina, explore walking and biking trails, make quick trips to the Arboretum, Lake Minnewashta, Victoria and Carver Park Reserve. Then come back home, make a backyard bonfire and have 'smores!
