Nestled within the scenic Deer Hill Preserve neighborhood of Orono, Minnesota, this stunning modern two-story house is a collaboration between Swanson Homes and Carbon 6 Interiors. As you step inside this inviting abode, you’ll be greeted by ten-foot ceilings with exposed wood beams that visually connect the main floor living areas.

Among these features, you’ll discover a chef-style kitchen boasting a 48” range and 30” refrigerator and freezer columns that flank the wine cooler. The kitchen also boasts white oak cabinetry and quartz countertops, beautifully complemented by pendant lighting suspended above the island. The main floor also hosts a dedicated study wing, complete with custom built-ins, a cozy hearth room with a window overlooking the athletic court, and a spacious deck and screened porch below, extending the living spaces for outdoor enjoyment.

The upper level hosts four bedrooms, including a lavish owner’s bedroom suite with an up-lit ceiling with an accompanying bathroom that is elegantly appointed with a freestanding tub, a walk-in shower, dual vanities, and a generously walk-in closet with a large peninsula. This floor also boasts a large bonus room with built-in desk and storage areas.

The lower level is a haven for entertaining, featuring a well-equipped wet bar with island-style seating, a welcoming family room, a designated game area, an exercise room, and even an indoor athletic court. This level also includes a fifth bedroom and an additional bathroom. Outside, the home is complemented by a beautifully designed pool and patio area.
