    Property Description

    Not Your Typical Split-Entry Home! Welcome to your private lakeside retreat—nestled on approximately 1 acre with 195 feet of pristine frontage on Downs Lake. This one-of-a-kind property seamlessly blends thoughtful updates with natural beauty for a lifestyle that feels both serene and sophisticated. As you arrive, you’ll notice the striking two-story front entry, thoughtfully added to expand the foyer and enhance curb appeal. A covered exterior entry welcomes guests, while inside, you’ll find a built-in bench, coat closet, warm maple woodwork, and elegant tile flooring. A glass banister adds a modern touch and enhances the home's airy, open feel. Head upstairs to a sun-drenched open-concept main level. The living room, dining room, and kitchen are flooded with natural light, offering panoramic views of Downs Lake. Step out from the dining room's dual patio doors to a new composite deck, perfect for morning coffee or sunset dinners. The completely remodeled kitchen features hickory cabinets, stainless steel appliances, newer tile flooring, and a convenient breakfast bar—a true chef’s delight! Down the hall, you'll find three spacious bedrooms, each with generous closet space. The primary suite boasts a private ¾ bath with tile flooring, tiled shower surround, and a built-in bench. The updated full bath showcases a maple double vanity, tile surround, and a luxurious jacuzzi tub. On the lower level, the walkout family room provides easy access to the patio and backyard. A gas line is already in place—just waiting for your dream fireplace. The fourth bedroom is oversized and could easily be divided into two bedrooms, making this home as flexible as it is functional. There's also another full bathroom with jacuzzi tub, tile details, and a linen closet. Storage abounds, including a large cedar-lined hall closet. The 3-car garage is equipped with new door openers and updated electrical service—perfect for all your tools and toys. Outdoors, nature lovers will rejoice. Watch spectacular sunsets and enjoy regular visits from deer, geese, eagles, and even hundreds of migrating pelicans. Over $10, 000 in landscaping enhances the peaceful setting. Every inch of this home has been thoughtfully updated—flooring, kitchen, bathrooms, siding, roof, deck, and more. All of this, and you're just minutes from shopping, parks, top-rated schools, restaurants, and Lake Elmo, only a mile away. Downs Lake is a non-motorized gem, where you can enjoy canoeing, kayaking, and electric pontoons in summer, and ice-skating, snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, and snowmobiling in winter. Don’t miss the chance to own this rare lakeside sanctuary—where comfort meets nature in perfect harmony.
