Why Long Lake Homeowners Choose Revision for Renovation and Remodeling

A Community Worth Investing In

Long Lake, Minnesota occupies a distinctive position in Hennepin County’s residential geography. It sits directly between Wayzata, one of Minnesota’s most celebrated lakefront communities, and Orono, one of the state’s most prestigious estate-home addresses. That location gives Long Lake homeowners access to the full Lake Minnetonka lifestyle: the trails, the water culture, and the dining and shopping of downtown Wayzata, while maintaining a degree of quiet and privacy that is increasingly difficult to find in the metro’s western suburbs.

Long Lake’s residential market is defined by its lots and its homes. The city’s wooded, generously sized parcels attract homeowners who prioritize privacy, mature landscaping, and a genuine sense of separation from neighboring properties. Many of these homes were built during the mid-twentieth century, creating a housing stock with outstanding bones and irreplaceable lot character, but interiors that no longer reflect how Long Lake families live today. That dynamic drives one of the most compelling home remodeling markets in the Lake Minnetonka corridor, and it is precisely the kind of project that Revision was built to serve.

Long Lake’s Remodeling Market

Revision’s Long Lake clients include professionals ready to finally transform the kitchen that has never worked the way they need it to, families growing into their home who need more functional space through a thoughtful addition, and homeowners who have loved Long Lake for years but are ready for an interior that matches the quality of their lot and their lifestyle. In every case, the Revision approach is the same: original design tailored to your specific home and how you live in it, complete budget transparency before any work begins, and quality execution from the first design meeting through the final walkthrough.

Long Lake homes span a wide range of architectural styles and eras, from mid-century colonials and split-levels to more recently built executive homes. Revision has experience across all of them. We do not impose a signature aesthetic on every project. Instead, we work to understand the character of your home and your life, and we design a renovation that feels like it has always belonged there.

The Long Lake Remodeling Opportunity

Long Lake’s established neighborhoods include a significant number of homes where the location, the lot, and the bones are exceptional but the interior has not kept pace with contemporary expectations for luxury living. Open-concept kitchen and living spaces, primary suites with spa-caliber bathrooms, finished lower levels that serve as genuine living space rather than storage, and outdoor living areas that extend the home’s footprint into the landscape: these are the renovations that transform a good Long Lake home into a great one, and they are Revision’s specialty.

Revision manages the complete renovation scope in Long Lake: architectural design, City of Long Lake and Hennepin County permitting, trade coordination, and complete construction from demolition through final finish. Our clients do not navigate that complexity. We do, and we do it with the kind of transparency and communication that custom renovation should always include but rarely does.

Long Lake Neighborhoods and Areas Revision Serves

Revision serves clients throughout Long Lake and the immediately adjacent communities of Orono and Wayzata. These are the areas of Long Lake where our remodeling expertise is most deeply established.

Long Lake Schools and the Case for Remodeling

Long Lake is primarily served by the Orono School District, one of the most consistently high-performing school districts in Minnesota. For families committed to Orono Schools, investing in a Long Lake home remodel rather than moving is often the clearest path to getting the home you want while staying in the community you have chosen. Revision designs renovations with family life at their center: functional mudrooms and drop zones built for the rhythm of a busy family, kitchen layouts designed for how modern families actually cook and gather, primary suites that provide genuine retreat, and finished lower levels that give growing families real room to spread out.

Beyond schools, Long Lake’s community character is one of its most compelling assets. The network of trails, Long Lake Beach Park, and the broader natural landscape connecting to the Lake Minnetonka regional trail system create a lifestyle oriented toward the outdoors. Every Revision remodel in Long Lake is designed to engage with that way of life: covered decks and screened porches for Minnesota’s long warm season, outdoor living areas that extend the home toward the natural features of each specific property, and interiors that feel connected to the landscape rather than sealed off from it.
