About this home
Set on a remarkable Lake Elmo homesite with wide water views and professionally tiered landscaping, this custom-built waterfront home is designed around the setting. The main level offers generous gathering spaces, a gourmet kitchen with oversized island and Viking appliances, plus easy access to the screened porch and deck with built-in grill. A hidden staircase behind the office bookshelf adds one of the home’s most memorable details. Upstairs, the primary suite captures panoramic lake views, while two additional bedrooms, a Jack-and-Jill bath, laundry room, and two flex spaces add everyday function. The walkout lower level expands the entertaining space with a family room, home theater area, premium wet bar, guest suite, and extensive workshop behind a second hidden door. Outside, enjoy a stamped-concrete patio with bar, lakeside fire pit, permanent dock, and included boat lift. Two heated 2-car garages, EV charging, newer furnace/A/C and roof complete the property. A distinctive Lake Elmo setting offering space to gather, room for hobbies, and waterfront living that is increasingly difficult to replicate. Additional highlights include two on-demand water heaters, a water filtration system, air exchanger, three electrical panels, epoxy garage floors, custom storage, utility sink, and direct lake access for fishing and cruising on 257-acre Lake Elmo. Just steps from parkland.

How SODL buyer credits work
When you buy with SODL, the brokerage charges a flat $3,000 platform fee at closing. The remaining buyer-side commission (typically 3% of the purchase price) is credited directly back to you at closing, reducing the cash you bring to the table.
- Tour homes with SODL’s flexible showing network
- Submit offers and manage your transaction through the platform
- Keep more money at closing through transparent flat-fee pricing
A clear, modern way to buy with expert guidance and meaningful savings.
