Imagine coming home to your own private, wooded retreat set on a hill overlooking Wing Lake in Minnetonka in a coveted neighborhood where homes rarely come up for sale. Perched on a 1.16-acre lot with mature trees and natural landscaping, this move-in ready 4-bedroom, 3-bath home offers privacy, beautiful light, and picturesque south-facing exposure with panoramic views and frequent wildlife sightings; a property that changes magically from season to season. A rare find this close to shopping, dining, and top schools. With top-notch walkability to local favorites like Lunds & Byerly's, Unmapped Brewery, the Gold Nugget, DelSur, Heather's Minnetonka and more. This is more than a home; this is a lakeside sanctuary. Inside, flexible living and entertaining spaces flow together with an open concept and great connectivity throughout. The main level features an open-flow layout with living room and sitting room, dining room, kitchen, pantry and half bath, plus a spacious primary suite with a walkthrough bathroom and an office boasting panoramic views. The lower level offers three bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a family room with a walkout to the backyard and lake view, along with utility rooms, giving you multiple living spaces to entertain or simply spread out. Whether you're sipping morning coffee from your office or entertaining on the deck or family room walkout, this is the kind of home that feels like an escape every single day.

Woodland-Highland, located between Highway 7 and Minnetonka Boulevard, is a residential and lakeside Minnetonka neighborhood with wooded streets and pocket parks. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Minnetonka Boulevard & Williston Road junction, where commuter traffic meets a low-key strip of local services and everyday errands. Housing leans toward mid-century ramblers and split-levels, with mature trees and curving lots shaping a quiet, buffered feel. Nearby shoreline paths and small green spaces set a steady outdoor rhythm. Ridgedale Center and the adjacent Ridgedale Library act as cultural and retail anchors without feeling like a downtown. The Minnetonka Center for the Arts adds a studio-and-gallery note that carries into the surrounding streets.
