Welcome to Lake Minnetonka's Gold Coast where location, land, and lake life take center stage. Tucked along one of the lake's quietest yet most coveted stretches in Mound, this exceptional .88-acre lot offers privacy, scale, and sweeping south-facing views over Cooks Bay. With roughly 100' of rip rap shoreline and over 325 feet of depth, the lot is the showpiece—sandy bottom, Grade A water quality and beautifully usable. A long, private driveway set back from the street creates an immediate sense of arrival, winding through wooded surroundings to grounds that unfold toward the water. At the shoreline, convenient storage for lake essentials sits below a lakeside deck, with a fire pit for evenings on the water. The site's remarkable topography delivers true walkout living on two levels: the main floor steps directly to the backyard, while the lower level opens to a full walkout, maximizing lake exposure throughout. The lot supports a 7 car garage and a swimming pool. Concept plans for this homesite are available through Alexander Design Group, offering buyers a head start with a design already tailored to the lot's walkout topography and south-facing lake views—or start from a blank page entirely. NIH Homes will design and build to your exact specifications, whether refining an existing concept plan or creating a fully custom home from the ground up.

Truly a RARE, once in a lifetime offering to build your iconic legacy estate! The last prime A++ West-NW facing estate property remaining. Prime Main Lower Lake. Prime Woodland. Hard sand bottom lakeshore. A-grade water quality. Five minutes by boat into Wayzata, on one of the most coveted runs of shoreline on all of Lake Minnetonka, nestled into the Greenwich, Connecticut-like community in Minnesota — the Maplewoods neighborhood of Woodland. Once it’s gone, it’s gone. This estate offers unparalleled privacy from both the street approach and its commanding, perched presence above the water and boasts 3.76 acres and 255 feet of lakeshore. The experience begins at the cusp of the driveway, where the path descends into a private sanctuary. The meandering topography and sheer scale of the land provide a rich canvas for this new concept home. From its commanding westerly sunset vistas and elevated perch, the estate offers long, deep-water views across the Main Lower Lake, Spirit Island and toward Ferndale — a vantage few properties on the lake can claim. The grounds are as distinctive as the new residence will be. A private Har-Tru clay tennis court anchors the landscape, surrounded by native flowers and plantings, a fenced garden suited to herbs, vegetables, and fruit, and two five-foot beehives managed by the University of Minnesota — together yielding nearly 40 pounds of "Gale Road Gold" honey each year, a private farmer's market steps from the front door. The time is now to create an entirely new legacy on this property — this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity on Lake Minnetonka.
