With a preference for modern design and a love for great lake views, the owners of this new build were looking for their forever home, and found it on the scenic shores of picturesque Tonka Bay.
A high-contrast color scheme, courtesy of a striking combination of pale stone and darker James Hardie and Nichiha siding, adds visual interest to the exterior, while floor-to-ceiling black Pella windows allow guests to see through the front of the home to the lake on the other side.
The expansive windows and extensive landscaping, along with an outdoor patio and grill deck, create a seamless indoor-outdoor connection and allow for plenty of opportunities to enjoy the diverse weather Minnesota seasons have to offer.
The full-height stone backsplash is a focal point in the kitchen, while vertical grain walnut cabinets leave a lasting impression.
A balcony located off the primary suite provides the sweeping lake views the owners desired, while a wood-burning fireplace creates a cozy ambiance inside during the colder months.
The traditional wood-burning fireplace with a floating pre-cast hearth is completed by a beautifully plaster-finished wall that adds a touch of timeless elegance.
A custom metal and wood interior railing complements both the white oak floors throughout the upper levels and honed concrete floor in the lower level.
Hand-carved wood fans, luxury lighting, porcelain tiles, and custom cabinetry details (including a see-through wall divider shelving unit and hidden ping-pong storage cabinet) are just a sampling of the artisan elements waiting to be discovered throughout the rest of this home.
