The Birch is a single-level rambler that lives large - 3,500+ square feet with main-level bedrooms, soaring great room ceilings, and a lower level built for whatever you need it to be. The great room makes an immediate impression with 12-foot ceilings and 16-foot sliding patio doors with transoms that flood the space with natural light. The gourmet kitchen is open to it all - an oversized center island, walk-in pantry, and a dedicated coffee bar that makes the morning routine a little better. A study with double-door entry off the main level provides a quiet, private workspace. The mudroom off the three-car garage includes a built-in bench, closet, and direct laundry room access with built-in cabinet and sink. The primary suite is a genuine retreat: ceramic tile shower, freestanding tub, separate vanities, and a walk-in closet with its own laundry room access. A second bedroom and ¾ bath round out the main level. Downstairs, the lower level delivers serious flexibility. A media/game room, dedicated exercise room with double-door entry, a third bedroom with ¾ bath, and two large unfinished storage rooms give you space to spread out. Optional upgrades include a bar and fireplace in the media/game room, a fourth bedroom, sunroom, screened porch, or maintenance-free deck. The great room box vault with beamed ceiling is available for those who want to take the main level even higher. Built by McDonald Construction, available in select Twin Cities communities.
