Rarely does a property of this caliber become available: a pristine 2.15 acre south-facing estate site, offered for the first time in over five decades. Tucked within a canopy of mature hardwoods and lush, wildlife-filled gardens, this elevated parcel delivers sweeping, unobstructed views and an atmosphere of profound peace—enhanced by its proximity to the serene, private waters of 15-acre Wing Lake. The current residence is likely a teardown, clearing the way for your bespoke vision: craft a modern retreat, timeless estate, or family compound tailored precisely to your desires. Complementing the site are two valuable outbuildings—a 24x22 two-car garage and a delightful 25x16 barn with upper-level studio potential—ready to serve as workshop, guest quarters, or creative haven. A long, winding private driveway ensures seclusion while the location offers perfect balance: minutes from Minnetonka's premier shopping, dining, top-rated schools, and recreational amenities, yet only 20 minutes from downtown Minneapolis and MSP International Airport. In a market where exceptional land is increasingly scarce, this parcel stands out as the true asset—proving that value resides in the land itself. Open to all builders and dreamers alike. Schedule your private viewing today—opportunities this extraordinary are fleeting.
