Just steps from downtown Excelsior, this inviting home offers commanding views of St. Albans Bay and a truly special setting nestled on over half an acre. A unique opportunity, it blends the character of the original home with the amenities of a full 2020 main-level remodel. The open floor plan features a chef’s Kitchen designed for entertaining — complete with a 10-foot island, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and laundry that opens to the vaulted Family Room which enjoys long lake views. Engineered wood floors span the main level, which also includes a Home Office overlooking the water and a fantastic Flex Room with a wood-burning fireplace — ideal for a library, playroom, or sitting room. An adjacent room has been roughed-in for a future full bath, offering even more potential. Two bedrooms complete the main level and include the Primary Suite, where you’ll find a clawfoot bathtub and luxurious tiled shower. Upstairs, the charm of the original home shines through in three additional bedrooms and an updated full bathroom. Downstairs you’ll find a comfortable Home Theatre with projector perfect for movie nights, a large Mud Room, and an unfinished area ready for a workshop or future expansion. There’s even a rough-in for a future bath. Outdoors, the setting is nothing short of spectacular. Surrounded by mature trees, the private backyard allows you to connect with family and friends on the large deck which spans the back of the home or relax in the gazebo while taking in the peaceful lake views. Step down to the lake to launch a kayak or paddleboard from the city-owned shoreline — all the benefits of lakefront living without the upkeep! The City of Excelsior has confirmed that there is potential to add another garage off the driveway – buyers/agents should check with the city in regard to future placement and options. Residents may apply for a dock slip through the City of Excelsior’s dock program. Stroll to Maynard’s for dinner, shop the boutiques of Water Street and enjoy the numerous community events held throughout the year in the Commons. Offering both tranquility and convenience, this property captures the best of Excelsior living — with lake life and walkability in one rare package.
