Bluffs West Wooded Retreat with Sauna & Viking Kitchen

There is a reason Eden Prairie is constantly ranked as one of the best places in the country to live, and the Bluffs West neighborhood is the perfect example of why. Sitting back on a quiet, heavily wooded third-of-an-acre lot, this over 2,000-square-foot home packs an incredible punch - combining a high-end Viking kitchen, solid reclaimed maple floors and a completely fenced, wooded retreat. This gem unpretentiously pairs high-end updates with a seamless layout, an oversized two-car garage, and maintenance-free siding, soffit, fascia and deck. When you walk through the front door, you're greeted by solid reclaimed maple floors that run across the entire main level, setting a really warm, comfortable tone for the rest of the house. The entryway takes you right into the kitchen, featuring custom cabinets, upgraded quartz countertops, a subway tile backsplash, and a deep farm sink underneath a window overlooking the mature tree-lined backyard. A chef’s dream kitchen with a professional Viking appliance suite that includes a double oven and a commercial-grade vent-hood. Just past the dining area, a bright four-season porch opens directly onto a large deck, perfect for entertaining or taking in the view after a long day. A hallway off the main living space also leads to two comfortable bedrooms and a remodeled full bathroom. Heading downstairs, the large family room is beautifully centered around a brick fireplace. Down the hall are two more bedrooms, a second remodeled bathroom, and the private indoor sauna - the ultimate feature to have ready and waiting when you come inside on a freezing Minnesota winter day. Outside, the location connects you quickly to the rest of the Twin Cities, with Highway 169 just minutes away, a 20-minute drive to the MSP airport, and an easy commute downtown. For groceries and shopping, Target, Cub Foods, Walmart, Prairie Village Mall, and the Eden Prairie Shopping Center are all under a ten-minute drive. The local food options right around the neighborhood are hard to beat - grab pastries and a cup of joe at Smith Coffee & Cafe, a garlic smash burger or hot honey pizza at Tavern 4 & 5, the hot dish appetizer at Brick & Bourbon, or curry pizza and chaat fries at Bombay Pizza Kitchen. You also have classic burgers at Lions Tap, steaks at Wildfire, and fresh tamales at Mama Aurelia's nearby. Living in the land of 10,000 lakes means you’re surrounded by plenty of water and your pick of phenomenal nearby parks. Franlo Park is less than a mile away for tennis and pickleball, Staring Lake Park offers a fishing pier, disc golf, and an off-leash dog park, and Bryant Lake Regional Park has swimming beaches and boat rentals. Explore the Hyland-Anderson Bush Lakes Park Reserve, Riley Creek Conservation Area, the 18-hole Bluff Creek Golf Course, or the unique natural springs at the Fredrick-Miller and Richard T. Anderson conservation areas. Hyland Hills skiing, Canterbury Park, Mystic Lake Casino, and Valleyfair are all also within a 15-minute drive.
