Discover a secluded haven at 878 Lakewood Hills Road, nestled within a remnant of Minnesota’s rare native oak savanna. Surrounded by majestic burr oak, red oak, poplar, hickory, and cherry trees, this property offers the perfect blend of natural beauty and modern comfort. The landscape is alive with native plants and seasonal berries—elderberry, gooseberry, raspberry, and blackberry—attracting birds and wildlife to your backyard sanctuary. The current owners have lovingly restored the land, replacing old retaining walls with natural stone and planting species that reflect the area’s original prairie and savanna habitat. The wooded acreage features trees at every stage of life, creating a dynamic, ever-changing landscape. Careful stewardship, including regular arborist visits, has kept the property healthy and vibrant. Minimal grass lawn enhances the natural setting, though there is ample space for lawn expansion if desired. Whether you’re sipping coffee under towering oaks, walking trails through your own woods, or simply enjoying the peace and privacy, this property offers a rare opportunity to live immersed in nature—just minutes from downtown Minneapolis or St. Paul. This two-story home features natural materials and handcrafted detail—granite countertops, artisan tilework, stone flooring, and hand-forged cabinet hardware and lighting. A sun-filled living room with fireplace opens to a screened porch and a broad deck—perfect for watching wildlife or the changing seasons. The main floor includes both formal and informal dining areas, a den or guest room, and a mudroom/laundry. Upstairs is a private ensuite primary bedroom and two additional bedrooms. A 4th bedroom could easily be created on either the main or lower-level. The lower-level offers a light filled recreation space, a large family room, a 1/2 bath, and storage. An oversized two-car garage includes an EV charging plug. New Fiber Optics = high speed internet available - should be completed by the week of Oct 5th. This is a home for those who value space, quiet, and living among trees. See supplements for more information on this beautiful home.
