This stately Saint Joseph retreat sits on twenty acres of rolling hills and offers more than 6,500 finished square feet, with a thoughtfully designed floor plan that seamlessly blends elegance with expansive indoor and outdoor living. Ideally located just minutes from I-94, the property is within walking distance of live music and events at Milk & Honey and only minutes from downtown Saint Joseph. Nearby college campuses, including the College of Saint Benedict, Saint John’s University, and St. Cloud State, add vibrancy and culture to the area. Arrive via the circular driveway and take in the home’s sophisticated curb appeal, featuring a grand front entry, timeless brick finishes, and impressive wings extending from both sides of the residence. Outdoors, the property is a private sanctuary with scenic walking trails, perennial gardens, wild apple trees, blackberries, and abundant wildlife. Inside, the home offers four bedrooms and four bathrooms, along with expansive spaces ideal for entertaining. Multiple living areas and sitting rooms provide both comfort and versatility. The chef’s kitchen features a gas range, large center island, abundant natural light, generous storage, a wet coffee bar, and a spacious dining area accented by French doors leading to a brick patio. Guests are welcomed through a large foyer into an elegant parlor that offers additional dining or gathering space, highlighted by a genuine Austrian crystal chandelier. Just off the kitchen, the great room showcases vaulted ceilings, custom built-ins, and a gas-burning fireplace. The tiled sunroom includes a wet bar, patio access, and expansive windows that frame the surrounding natural landscape. The lower-level living space centers around a sunken seating area with striking custom stonework, a wood-burning fireplace, and a convenient kitchenette, perfect for entertaining or relaxing. For a truly private retreat, the sprawling primary suite features its own sitting area, private balcony, and gas fireplace. The en-suite bathroom offers heated floors, a large soaking tub, a separate multi-head shower, a double vanity, and a walk-in closet. The property includes exceptional storage throughout, with a total of five garage stalls: an attached, heated, and insulated three-stall garage and a detached two-stall garage with additional storage space. A large utility room with floor-to-ceiling shelving, along with an adjoining storage room, adds even more functionality. The roof and gutters are less than three years old. This remarkable home must be experienced in person to fully appreciate its unique character, thoughtful design, and exceptional setting. Don’t miss this rare combination of acreage, privacy, and prime location.
