Cottage City

Modern masterpiece with fabulous lake and Minneapolis skyline views. Spectacular mid-century residence, completely remodeled and reimagined by renowned modern architect Jim Jennings. This home’s design mastered proportion, symmetry, serenity of light and space, and material. Exceptional house for entertaining, yet very comfortable scale for everyday living. Great condo alternative. Expansive Duratherm windows throughout the home perfectly frame the stunning, understated interior and showcases the extraordinary lake views and landscaping. Custom transom windows in the living and dining space emphasize the home’s symmetry and modernist proportions. Contemporary, minimalist kitchen has Italian Valcucine cabinets, Dornbracht fixtures, commercial-grade 48 inch gas range. Lower level continues the home’s minimalist, understated design narrative with Italian tile flooring, open living area and office space with breathtaking views of reflective pool, birch trees and Bde Maka Ska. There is plenty of private spaces for guests with both a separate bedroom, full bathroom and a thoughtfully designed Murphy bed transforms the office into an exceptional guest suite. The landscape, designed by Coen Partners, is nothing short of world-class. At its heart lies a dramatic 40-by-20-foot reflecting pool, setting the tone for a property defined by tranquility and precision. A birch grove ensures privacy while preserving sweeping water views from the southernmost point of Lake Bde Maka Ska, with sightlines extending toward downtown Minneapolis. Practical luxury is evident throughout, extending to the heated motor court accommodating up to seven vehicles and the oversized, fully finished garage, complete with custom cabinetry and a snowmelt system. Perfectly positioned, the home is just five blocks to downtown Linden Hills, with wonderful restaurants – Martina, Rosalia Pizza, Tilia, Picnic and Sebastian Joe’s Ice Cream Shop just to name a few, the Lake Harriet Bandshell, shopping, coffee shops and more—yet feels worlds away, offering a rare sense of calm, cohesion, and connection to nature. It truly needs to be seen to be appreciated.
