This modern mountain style dream home was designed by David Charlez Designs, nestled on 124-feet of private lakeshore on the breathtaking Lake O’Dowd, in Shakopee, Minnesota. The Peninsula at Lake O’Dowd is a new development of 14 lakeshore lots and acres of wooded privacy.
Enjoying 3,642 square feet of living space, this home has four bedrooms, four bathrooms, and a three-car garage. Perfectly situated to soak in the southern sun and views of the south bay. You will love the expansive master bath with a 12-foot shower and vaulted ceilings! Enjoy the stunning high-end kitchen, screen porch, game room, or exercise room.
