Welcome to Waters Edge Preserve—where over 5 acres, high-end craftsmanship, and protected privacy come together in one unforgettable Forest Lake setting. With unbuildable land behind the home, you get the quiet, tucked-away feel everyone craves—plus wildlife, peaceful pond views, and magical sunrises and sunsets. All of this just minutes to downtown Forest Lake and 3 miles to the nearest public boat launch.This luxury 5BR/4BA home delivers the space you need and the architectural details you want. The custom kitchen with Maple cabinets is designed for real life with large dual wall ovens, Wolf cooktop, new quartz countertops, under-cabinet lighting, and a generous prep space. The butler's pantry seamlessly doubles as a dedicated household command center to keep daily operations effortlessly organized. A hidden scullery near the lower-level wet bar adds extra storage and a utility sink—perfect for larger gatherings, catering set-up, or hobby projects.The hearth room is the heart of the home—vaulted ceilings with knotty alder wood beams, custom built-ins, a statement stone wood-burning fireplace, slate flooring, and walls of Andersen windows that pull the outdoors in.Upstairs, the primary suite is a true retreat with professionally designed closet systems in both closets, spa-like comfort in the bathroom including a jetted tub, heated lamp, and upgraded shower ventilation. The mudroom and laundry area is built for Minnesota living, featuring custom maple lockers to store boots and gear for every season. Heated porcelain floors, an upgraded utility sink, and a slate shower make cleanup comfortable and effortless. The lower level is built for both fun and wellness. The knotty alder bar with granite counters framed by stone accents is a showstopper. Dimmable lighting, built-in speakers, and a stone gas fireplace set the perfect ambiance for movie nights — and the TV stays. Your wellness retreat begins in the dedicated gym — complete with heated floors — and ends with a rejuvenating steam shower in the lower level bath, which also provides heated flooring. Need a quiet place to focus? The lower level includes a dedicated office with a built-in waterfall granite desk and built-in knotty alder enclosed bookshelves. A huge storage area and a deep freezer that stays—perfect for Costco runs, holiday hosting, and everything that comes with acreage living. The outdoor spaces are impressive — with two maintenance-free decks (including space for dining and grilling), a pergola, and an impressive decorative aggregate concrete patio wired for a hot tub. Established apple and pear trees, plus a huge, enclosed garden with irrigation already in place, round out the lifestyle. Dual furnace/boiler system, Bryant heat pump, UV air purifier, reverse osmosis system, and ADT commercial security system complete this executive home.
