51XX Waterbury Road

WELCOME TO A MASTERPIECE OF MODERN LUXURY WITH LONG VIEWS OF LAKE MINNETONKA! This custom-designed home is perfectly situated on a rare, private ¾-acre wooded walkout site with panoramic views of a large pond, surrounding wetlands, and Phelps Bay of Lake Minnetonka. One of the last undeveloped parcels in the area, this elevated property offers the feel of acreage while being surrounded by water and nature to the east and south. The site features 160 feet of shoreline on a large scenic pond, with a permitted dock and direct access to Lake Minnetonka via a 13-foot-wide channel. The pond is not deep, but could accommodate pontoons, small outboards, bass boats, kayaks, canoes, and windsurfers in summer—along with ice skating, pond hockey, and snowmobiling in winter. All the joys of lakeshore living, without lakeshore taxes. A rare opportunity, this property allows you to build your dream home with private water views to the east, wooded wetlands to the south, and abundant wildlife including ducks, geese, bald eagles, and deer. Tucked away on a quiet, no-outlet road, the building site sits on a peninsula and is part of an exclusive enclave of three new custom homes. Mature maple and oak trees ensure lush privacy in summer, brilliant fall colors, and serene winter landscapes—all enhanced by breathtaking sunrises over the pond.
