Property Description
Donā??t miss this opportunity to own a luxury home on 120 acres on Whaletail Lake. From the peak of the gently rolling hillside, the house overlooks the Lake, featuring approximately 2600 ft. of lakeshore. Whaletail Lake, which includes a North basin, is a 510-acre lake with a maximum depth of 22 feet. The house is located on the north basin of the lake. The lake has been known for quality fishing and recreational activities.
It feels like paradise! This home and property are in Minnetrista, a rural community on the western bays of Lake Minnetonka in southwestern Hennepin County. The house includes an additional 80x42 outbuilding, perfect for storing toys and other equipment. The home is nestled about 800 ft. off the main paved county road, providing ultimate privacy with wildlife right outside your door. There is much more to say about the home, but itā??s necessary to see it to truly appreciate it. While there is a lot to discuss, letā??s begin with the house first.
The opportunity to acquire a home of this caliber, situated on land where you can hunt right on your property, is rare. This uniquely designed residence has spared no detail. One could discuss the home all day, but you really need to look at the pictures to truly appreciate its beauty and craftsmanship. It offers three levels, five bedrooms, five bathrooms, three wood-burning fireplaces, and a 54x31 indoor basketball court (originally a pool, it can be converted back if someone prefers a pool over an indoor basketball court). The main level includes a foyer that leads into a Great Room with a stone fireplace perfect for enjoying during the colder months. The kitchen flows from the Great Room and provides an open feel, ideal for entertaining guests. The primary bedroom boasts a spacious bath, a walk-in closet, and an 8x8 balcony just off the bedroom. The dining room features beautiful hardwood floors. Additionally, there is a large mudroom, laundry room, and a bathroom conveniently located off the attached heated garage. Donā??t miss the stunning deck that overlooks Whaletail Lake and the gently rolling hills right from your back door. On the upper level, four bedrooms and an open balcony overlook the Great Room below. Itā??s pure beauty! The homeā??s lower level is unique and provides an ideal space for entertaining guests, including a large family/recreation room with a fireplace, a wet bar, and a beautiful 54x31 indoor basketball court right in your home! There is also a sizable mechanical room on the lower level.
Regarding the land, this property features a diverse mix of habitat for deer, turkey, pheasants, and waterfowl. The rolling topography, combined with a blend of trees and open grasslands, could be enhanced with food plots. It also offers low, dense bedding cover for wildlife. A local farmer is farming approximately 65 acres on the property. The home is situated in an area characterized by a blend of agricultural fields, wooded tracts, and secluded lowlands. There is also the possibility for development opportunities for this property.
There is much more to say about the land, which must be seen to fully appreciate what it offers. Therefore, if youā??re looking for a premium home that combines beauty, functionality, and everything you need, along with an additional outbuilding and land that attracts wildlife in Central MN, call us; we would love to discuss the details further!
