Description

FSF taken from blueprints. Fireplace flames in property photos have been digitally added. Designed by architect Robert Gerloff and constructed by custom builder Cates Fine Homes, this artistic Nordic inspired farmhouse graciously unfolds as an intricately crafted series of structures with singular striking roof lines, dramatic overhangs, soaring volume and warmly differing exterior textures with masterfully placed, uniquely individual apertures - creating a one-of-one architectural residence that seamlessly melds into its spectacular prairie and woodland setting. Perfectly perched atop a picturesque knoll, the extended driveway dramatically cuts through beautiful prairie, providing a strong sense of place and enduring relationship to the spectacular setting and Mother Nature. Voluminous light-infused interior spaces, walls of windows, purposely extended sight-lines, warm woods and stones, custom finishes and built-ins, centralized kitchen, tranquil treehouse-like primary retreat with spa-inspired bathroom, inviting three-sided glass walled office, stylish screened porch engulfed by nature, creative breezeway that connects garage to house, harmoniously scaled family room, geothermal, in-floor heating and sought-after main floor living. Overlooking a scenic wetland, surrounded by picturesque prairie grass and wonderful woodlands - exquisitely placed to maximize privacy, and through expansive glass, create a seamless continuity between interior and exterior - bringing the outdoors in and offering the ultimate tranquility. A warm and inviting architect designed nature sanctuary like no other, located in coveted North Oaks - expansive nature trails, hiking, biking, running, cross-country skiing, community gathering and recreational areas, verdant parks and Pleasant Lake Beach. Minutes to shopping, restaurants, cafes, grocery and much more. Featured in Architecture Minnesota magazine and Star & Tribune.
