Property Description

WRAPPED IN TREES! Follow the curve of the cul-de-sac to this 5-bedroom ranch (plus a bonus room!) in historic Orchard Gardens. The first WOW comes before you even reach the front door. In 2020, the homeowners added a Craftsman-inspired front porch with a gabled roof and timber posts, giving the whole house a spectacular new face. The houses here have breathing room between them, and this one sits on nearly half an acre with a private, wooded backyard. Look a little farther into the trees, and you’ll spot an enchanted playhouse. And yes, this address is in award-winning Lakeville Area Schools (ISD 194). As crisp mornings usher in falling leaves and sweater weather, this is the kind of place that makes staying in feel like a treat. Step inside and the hickory floors will sweep you off your feet. Soothing neutrals and leafy views make it easy to settle in and stay awhile. The heart of the home is an absolute showstopper! The kitchen, with barstool seating, flows into dining and living areas filled with windows. Maple cabinets, granite counters, and stainless appliances set the scene, while a long stretch of counter space gives you room to roll out dough, spread out a holiday feast, or have a few cooks in the kitchen. The open layout is pure magic for cooking, entertaining, and memory-making. Just off the main living area, the cedar deck delivers the treehouse feeling you never quite outgrow. Dinner out here? Absolutely. A spiced latte and nowhere you need to be? Even better. Three of the five bedrooms, including the primary, are together on the main floor. Head down to the walkout lower level, where a stunning barnwood wall gives the family room its wow factor. It’s made for epic movie marathons (popcorn required!), while the kitchenette—with a sink, microwave, ice maker, beverage cooler, and instant hot water tap—is ready for signature cocktails and good times. Two bedrooms and a bonus room offer space to spread out, with flexibility for guests or multigenerational living. The lower level also has two luxe bathrooms with heated tile floors: one with a beautifully tiled walk-in shower, and the other with a tiled tub-and-shower combination. The laundry room brings a little polish to the practical stuff, with a long granite folding counter, sink, and drying closet. Step out from the walkout lower level to a patio framed by garden beds and towering trees. Numbered stepping stones lead to the storybook playhouse, complete with a little front porch, a balcony among the branches, and all the charm of a cottage from the pages of a fairy tale. If tinkering is your thing, the insulated and heated attached garage is ready for hobbies and DIY projects. There’s a spirit of adventure here…it’s the perfect setting for big imaginations, cozy nights, and all the little moments that become your favorite memories.
