Hi Friends,

I can’t believe the beautiful boating, sailing and recreation area of Lake Minnetonka is fifteen minutes south-west of Minneapolis…I was drooling over the simple classic style of this lake house, I mean what is not to love?

”Spectacular sunset views of Lake Minnetonka attracted the homeowners to this property, and memories of a childhood summer lake cottage guided the effort to create a fun, comfortable, new classic shingle style lake home for an active family. The home features open yet architecturally defined main level living spaces, optimal lake views, sun exposure, and circulation between indoor and outdoor spaces. Other highlights include a pool terrace with fire-pit and quaint accessory pool house for outdoor entertaining.” -Swan Architecture
