About this home

The Ultimate Lake Minnetonka Retreat is an extraordinary lake house at 5940 Loring Drive in Minnetrista, where every season feels like a vacation. Set on a quiet cul-de-sac along the open waters of Upper Lake, this beautiful retreat combines classic lake living with the comforts of a substantial year-round home. Offering nearly 6,500 finished square feet, the residence includes five bedrooms and six bathrooms with spaces designed for both everyday living and effortless entertaining. Sweeping lake views become part of the experience throughout the home, while the main-level primary suite provides the ease and privacy of one-level living. The property features a large, level yard beautifully framed by mature perennial gardens and lush landscaping. It is an ideal setting for entertaining, outdoor celebrations or simply giving children and grandchildren room to run and play. The peaceful cul-de-sac setting adds another layer of privacy and is especially appealing for families with young children. At the water’s edge, approximately 120 feet of Lake Minnetonka shoreline includes a hard-sand beach perfect for swimming and enjoying direct access to the lake. A triple-canopy boathouse with a spacious veranda overlooks Upper Lake, creating a spectacular setting for sunset views, morning coffee and long summer days on the water. Inside, the home has two distinct personalities. The main level captures the spirit of the ultimate summer beach house, filled with natural light and a relaxed lake-house feel. The great room and expansive kitchen create inviting gathering spaces, complemented by formal and informal dining areas and a dedicated home office. The walkout lower-level transforms into the ultimate winter cabin, warm and cozy after a day spent skating, snowshoeing or enjoying the frozen lake. A spacious family room centers around the fireplace, while a wet bar, pool table area, media room and wine cellar make this level equally suited for entertaining family and friends. Whether you’re boating, swimming, or entertaining in the expansive yard this home captures everything that makes Lake Minnetonka special. Located in the Westonka School District and just minutes from the shopping, dining and everyday conveniences of nearby Minnetrista, Mound and the western Lake Minnetonka communities, your new home offers a rare combination of substantial shoreline, open-water views, privacy and year-round lake living. This is more than a lake house. It is a true Lake Minnetonka retreat with everything you need to make memories year-round.

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.
