This modern European dream home was designed by architect Peter Eskuche, located on Halstead’s Bay on the western side of Lake Minnetonka, in Hennepin County, Minnesota. Making a dramatic statement on the lake’s shoreline, this dwelling features a steel entry facade and a commanding black and white palette.
On the interior, an open and flowing floor plan is enhanced by floor-to-ceiling windows that maximize the idyllic lake views. Rich details balance tastefully with the light, open, and airy spaces. Just inside the home’s foyer, guests are embraced by an intimate and moody library that features a vaulted ceiling and cozy fireplace.
