An exceptional opportunity to own nearly 63ft of prized Crystal Bay shoreline known for its remarkable water clarity, deep-water boating, and scenic beauty, Crystal Bay is considered one of the lake’s most desirable bays, offering a premier lake lifestyle. Set on a uniquely deeper parcel along sought-after Crystal Bay Road, the property benefits from an additional 16.67 feet of rear lot depth acquired from the former railroad corridor, now the Dakota Trail. This property has been lovingly enjoyed for many years as a comfortable year-round home, offering over 1,000 finished square feet with 1 bedroom, 1 bath, & detached 2-car garage. Whether one chooses to appreciate its current charm, thoughtfully renovate, or envision a future custom lakeshore retreat, the setting itself is truly extraordinary. Ideally located, the property offers quick access to Shoreline Drive with no stoplights into downtown Minneapolis, making for an effortless commute. Enjoy close proximity to downtown Wayzata’s renowned dining, boutique shopping, grocery options, and lakeside amenities, along with nearby private country clubs offering golf, dining, and social opportunities just moments away. The neighborhood features charming historic homes mixed with the newly updated, mature landscape, and the natural beauty that defines its character. This property also carries a connection to Lake Minnetonka’s storied past, located within the area historically associated with the expansive holdings and legacy of railroad magnate James J. Hill, whose influence helped shape the early prominence of the Lake Minnetonka shoreline.
Very sharp lake home for sgl/couple. Home was totally redone in `93 w/ all new mechanicals, open flr plan, generous kitchen, beautiful fplc & landscaping. Drain tile in 2001. The large views are fabulous w/63` of good swimming lakeshore.
