CAUTION! You won’t want to leave… Set at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac on Hardscrabble Point, this thoughtfully designed classic Craftsman-style home is carefully tucked into the topography of a rare private peninsula on Lake Minnetonka—offering 550 feet of shoreline, sweeping panoramic views of water and light, and an unmatched sense of privacy. As you arrive, you wind past a 5.3-acre nature preserve of protected woods and wetlands—creating a natural buffer from the outside world. The setting feels intentional, almost as if it quietly invites you to leave behind the weight of the day… holding it there until you’re ready to pick it back up again. Pulling into the drive, you may find yourself pausing—as you often do—caught off guard by the shift. The stillness. The light. The subtle rhythm of the water surrounding you. Whatever it is, it’s consistent… and it’s yours. You’re home. Inside, the residence is designed to capture and reflect the ever-changing moods of the lake. Sunlight dances across the interior, refracted off the water, creating a living, breathing atmosphere that evolves throughout the day. Nearly every room is intentionally oriented to maximize mile-long views across thousands of acres of open water. With five bedrooms and six bathrooms, the home blends refined craftsmanship with relaxed livability. A main-level owner’s suite, private elevator, and open-concept living spaces offer both comfort and function. The chef’s kitchen features Thermador appliances, Cambria surfaces, and a butler’s pantry—ideal for both everyday living and effortless entertaining. Seamless indoor-outdoor living extends to a screened porch with fireplace, lakeside terrace, gas fire table, and pergola. A rare boathouse adds character and opportunity—perfect for storage or the potential to create a one-of-a-kind lakeside retreat. Additional features include an oversized three-car garage with epoxy floors, Pella windows, Kohler in-wall fixtures, backup generator, and extensive professional landscaping. This is more than a property—it’s a place where time slows, perspective sharpens, and the connection to the water becomes part of everyday life. The presence to the water here is rare.
