Home #R30 | Whole House Remodel

When it came time to transform this 100-year-old Wayzata residence, Black Dog Homes eagerly embraced its history while giving the home a refreshing new look. Every aspect of this renovation was thoughtfully considered to turn the home into a grand abode for generations to enjoy.

• The main house is outfitted with three bedrooms and 2 ½ baths, including an exquisite owner’s suite.
• Vast entertaining spaces now embrace an open concept layout, all while still preserving the character and charm of the original home.
• Adjacent to the chef’s kitchen, a farmhouse sink in the oversized butler’s pantry makes for easy prep work.
• A grand staircase lined with custom ornamental iron railings carries you to the additional bedrooms and a bonus living space.
• Custom features abound in the home including brick walls, shiplap details and interior finished beams.
• A fully separate living space is situated upon the heated three-car garage consisting of a one bedroom, one bath, full kitchen in-law unit with separate laundry and a private balcony.
• The thoughtful details put into this home are around every corner, with an individual private entrance and, yes, there is even a custom elevator to conveniently carry you between floors.
