Property Description

Experience effortless luxury lake living at this architecturally stunning residence overlooking Lake Koronis, one of Central Minnesota's most sought-after recreational and fishing lakes. Located just 80 miles from the western Twin Cities suburbs and minutes from charming Paynesville, this exceptional home offers the rare combination of breathtaking 180° waterfront views, modern design, and true maintenance-free ownership. Perched high on a bluff within an exclusive 14-home HOA community, the home captures sweeping views across 3,000-acre Lake Koronis and its three picturesque islands, creating a setting that feels distinctly "up north" while remaining remarkably accessible. Enjoy spectacular west-facing sunsets year-round from nearly every room. Designed by the owner and meticulously engineered and crafted, this Scandinavian-inspired modern home blends sophisticated architecture with comfortable lake living. Expansive windows, soaring ceilings, custom built-ins, designer finishes, and exceptional storage create a home that is as functional as it is beautiful. The heart of the home is an open-concept great room anchored by floor-to-ceiling Pella quad-sliding doors, seamlessly connecting the living, dining, bar, kitchen, and outdoor entertaining spaces. A chef-inspired kitchen features custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, a 10-foot island, induction cooktop, wall oven, walk-in pantry, coffee station, and stunning lake views from every angle. The main level also offers in-floor heating (including the garage), a private office, elegant screened porch with a two-sided fireplace, spacious mudroom, and thoughtfully designed entertaining spaces that flow effortlessly indoors and out. Upstairs, the primary suite serves as a private retreat with a glass balcony, wraparound windows, and a spa-inspired bath designed around panoramic lake views. Additional highlights include a dry sauna, upper-level laundry, guest accommodations, media loft, and a remarkable elevated sunroom known as the "Cozy Nest," offering unmatched views of eagles, wildlife, and unforgettable sunsets. Outdoor living is equally impressive, with a full-width composite deck, firepit patio, grilling area, basalt water feature, professional landscaping, and layered architectural lighting creating a resort-like atmosphere day and night. Residents enjoy the convenience of a professionally managed HOA that handles lawn care, snow removal, dock installation and removal, allowing more time to enjoy the lake. A dedicated boat slip, kayak storage, community swimming dock, and golf-cart access to the waterfront make lake days effortless. Just outside your door, the 16-mile paved Lake Koronis recreational trail invites biking, walking, and year-round exploration, while nearby state and county parks provide endless opportunities to enjoy Central Minnesota's rolling hills, forests, and natural beauty. This is luxury lake living reimagined-an extraordinary blend of architectural excellence, low-maintenance convenience, and one of Minnesota's most captivating waterfront settings.
