Property Description
Welcome to 2610 West Lafayette Road, a truly exceptional lakeside retreat nestled on 1.2 acres of elevated privacy, over 235 feet of pristine shoreline on the coveted Lafayette Bay—renowned for its crystal-clear, “A-rated” sandy bottom. With breathtaking 270-degree eastern views, this one-of-a-kind property offers panoramic vistas stretching across the tranquil waters to Big Island, just a mile off your dock, and the charming shores of Minnetonka Beach. Crafted for both beauty and function, this timeless home was fully remodeled just ten years ago, blending refined elegance with modern comfort. The main level features a serene primary suite—with expansive bath, while the upper level offers four additional bedrooms and two more baths, accommodating family or guests with ease. In total, there are 5 baths which includes main floor primary and powder room, 2 on the second level and 1 on the lower level. Warm hardwood floors, natural stone countertops, and high-end appliances speak to the quality throughout. The finished lower level is designed for living well, complete with a recreation room, private office, and a dedicated exercise space. Outside, over an acre of level lawn invites children to run, friends to gather, and memories to be made, all surrounded by lush greenery and lake breezes. The property also includes a two-car attached garage and an additional detached two-car building, offering ample storage for lake toys and vehicles alike. More than a home, 2610 West Lafayette Road is a legacy property—a place that grows with your family and draws loved ones back, year after year. A sanctuary on the shores of Lake Minnetonka where sunrises are unforgettable, summers are endless, and life unfolds beautifully.
