Super hard to find townhome on Lake Minnetonka, and even more so, the highly sought after Gideon's Bay! Resort style living within walking distance to downtown Excelsior. Less than 20 yards from your back door to the private sandy beach that comes with a dock and it's very own boat slip. There is 3 units that have access to the dock and the boat slips and each unit gets their very own slip on the dock. This is the end-unit where both sides look out over the lake and you have magnificent views from every window in the unit. Kitchen window.. lake view! Bathroom window.. lake view! Upper bedroom windows.. yup lake view on both sides! Spend a day on the lake boating, fishing, or splashing around. Dry off and take a walk, hop on your bike, or skateboard and a couple minutes later you will be in downtown Excelsior where you might pinch yourself on the way just to make sure you're not dreaming, as that is exactly what this little town feels like, a Fairy Tale! Throughout the summer enjoy concerts in the park, watch fireworks from your dock or grab an ice cream cone from the lakeside ice cream stand and try to lick it all before it melts down your hand. If you would rather just relax with a cold beverage on the patio I cannot think of many better spots other than right in your own backyard! Take in the sunset and then head inside where there are many updates. The whole unit has been pretty much transformed in the last 12 years. New HVAC, added spray foam insulation in 2025, newer windows, beautiful hardwood floors with spaces that flow together seamlessly. 3 bedrooms up with an awesome primary suite and of course it overlooks the lake from every window in the room. Might as well book a showing as once you get here you will fall in love. Thanks for taking a look and FYI there are no rentals allowed.
