This elegant lake house was custom built by Stonewood, nestled on the pristine shores of Wayzata Bay, on Lake Minnetonka, in Woodland, Minnesota. Boasting magnificent views both inside and out, this home has many wonderful design elements throughout — from the craft room to the wine cellar.
Created for the enjoyment of multiple generations, this dwelling plays host to large gatherings and extended family members for overnight visits. Inspiration for this home takes its cue from stately east coast homes along with older homes right within the community. The exterior welcomes you with cedar shingle siding, cedar roofing, and natural stone pavers at the driveway, on the terraces, and on the exterior walls.
The beautiful interior style is also reminiscent of east coast homes, designed by Studio M Interiors. Surfaces are clad in crisp white painted shiplap, paneling, and wallcoverings.
This home’s layout was tailored to be just the right size to cater to the lifestyle needs of just two, or the entire family. Each room was carefully considered, including the inviting four-season porch that has its own bar along with the well-appointed kitchen with dual islands and a scullery.
