Architect: Alexander Design Group
Builder: Stonewood, LLC
Land Planner: Yardscapes, IncDesign Statement:Taking full advantage of its beautiful Lake Minnetonka lot, this traditional Cottage-style home maximizes views without compromising privacy and is spacious while still maintaining the feel of a cozy cottage. Offering amenities such as a custom wine cellar, lofted office space, copper- soaking tub, detached carriage house, and bountiful outdoor living space, this home perfectly reflects the lifestyle of the owners in every detail. Since lake homes are seen from the water as much or more often than from the street, the aesthetic importance of the home’s lake side is elevated. Spatially, the home is laid out in a way that is practical and conducive to the current needs of the owners and also affords them the ability to age in place.
