Property Description
A rare opportunity to own approximately 100 feet of shoreline on prestigious Christmas Lake, one of the Twin Cities' cleanest and most sought-after lakes. Set on a private 1.25-acre lot on quiet and dead-end Christmas Lake Road, this unique property offers a peaceful lake setting with easy access to Highway 7 and downtown Excelsior. Designed for energy-efficient, sustainable living, the home was built using the innovative Enertia Homes building system and constructed by Mark D. Williams, combining timeless natural wood construction with exceptional efficiency. Rooftop solar panels and a drain-back solar hot water system enhance the home's environmentally conscious design. Inside, you'll find a cozy kitchen and living room with lake views, vaulted sunroom, 3 spacious bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, generous storage and closet space, warm wood finishes throughout, a large lakeside deck, and a second-story balcony with beautiful views of Christmas Lake. The original red cabin adds charm and provides valuable storage. Whether you're looking for a distinctive year-round home, a peaceful lake retreat, or a property with outstanding long-term potential, this offering delivers. The generous lot provides ample space for a future garage, home addition, or the opportunity to build a custom lakefront estate. Properties offering this combination of location, privacy, sustainability, and future potential on Christmas Lake are rarely available.
