Private 2-acre retreat in Excelsior with a nearly new Scandinavian-inspired modern home. Set back on a rare wooded lot, this 2-year-old home offers the kind of privacy, space, and setting that is almost impossible to find in this area anymore. Clean architectural lines, warm natural materials, oversized windows, and an open modern layout create a bright, peaceful feel throughout. The main level features a huge kitchen with Thermador appliances, generous dining and living spaces, hardwood floors, a private office/bedroom, mudroom, covered porch, and an attached 3-car garage. The plan also includes a sport court, entertainment room, 4 bedrooms on the upper level, upper-level laundry, multiple walk-in closets, and a spacious primary suite. Built with efficiency and comfort in mind, the home includes in-floor heat, spray foam ceiling insulation, triple-pane windows, high-performance construction details, and hardwood flooring across all three levels. Enjoy beautiful views, abundant wildlife, and a backyard that feels like your own private nature preserve, while still being close to Lake Minnetonka, Excelsior, shopping, restaurants, trails, and top west metro amenities. A rare opportunity to own newer construction on a private 2-acre setting in one of the most desirable areas of the west metro. This is the kind of lot that simply does not come available often.
