June-July 2011 Open House
HOT LISTING
This Deephaven residence was built in 2002 on the site of an 1876 house, one of the original homes on the eastern shore of Lake Minnetonka. It boasts all the modern amenities, yet maintains the timeless charm of the original, thanks to the large, screened porch facing the lake that was saved and re-attached to the new house. Built-in bookshelves, rich wood detailing, and a dedicated library add to the home’s sense of gracious living. At just over 5,300 square feet, the three-bedroom, three-bath residence offers a wealth of space without sacrificing coziness or comfort. Watch the summer sun go down over Lake Minnetonka from the west-facing windows in the sunroom, or snuggle up to one of the four fireplaces when snow blankets the lakefront.
