The most expensive house in Minnesota is now available for $15.795 million.
While $16 million might get you a moderately sized beach house in L.A., in Minnesota, you get a palatial chateau and 1.8 acres on Lake Minnetonka. The home spans just over 18,000 square feet, a stout measure that encompasses three floors. The traditional residence holds five bedrooms, seven full baths, and a continual series of expansive living spaces.
Just 15 miles from Minneapolis, the home was built to be a retreat from the city. It was custom built in 2012, and boasts beautiful features like soaring ceilings, a double-height entry, inlaid wood floors, and a great room with a two-story wall of windows overlooking the lake.
Amenities are numerous, and include a large gourmet kitchen, a prep kitchen, and a butler’s pantry, all of which will surely be handy for hosting dinner parties in the formal dining room fit for up to 18 guests. A full bar, sauna, and a temperature-controlled stone wine cellar also make the home very entertainment-friendly.
Diversions? A home theater, basement music club, full gym, golf simulator, and a sports court guarantee there’s no room for boredom. Residents can also find a private place to wind down in the sitting area with a fireplace, the office, or the sunroom.
The property features 195 feet of lakeshore waterfront, and is ready for guests with a large swimming pool, pool house, putting green, outdoor kitchen, and outdoor lounge with a fireplace.
