Overview

Description

Welcome to life at Royal Golf Club—where luxury, lifestyle, and setting come together in one of the Twin Cities’ premier private golf communities. Positioned on one of the neighborhood’s most desirable homesites, this property offers beautiful views across the course along with a sense of space and privacy that is increasingly rare. Designed for effortless main-level living, the home features a well-appointed owner’s suite with peaceful golf course views, creating a true retreat at the end of the day. The interior is defined by soaring ceilings, expansive room sizes, and tall interior doors that enhance the scale and architectural presence throughout. Natural light fills the spaces, adding warmth and highlighting the home’s refined finishes. One of the home’s most exceptional features is the ability to step into your backyard, take your golf cart directly onto the course, play a few holes, and continue on to the club for dinner or drinks with friends—an experience that truly captures the lifestyle offered here. The outdoor spaces have been thoughtfully enhanced well beyond typical new construction, with a beautifully landscaped and fenced yard featuring established perennial gardens and curated plantings—creating a private, inviting setting to enjoy throughout the seasons. Homeowners have the opportunity to purchase a membership to the Royal Golf Club, where there are also Pickleball Courts. Annika Sorenstam designed the front nine, as her first U.S. project, and Arnold Palmer's last design project was designing the back nine. There are also terrific walking paths and bike paths nearby. The HOA provides a pool and fitness facility—creating a well-rounded, resort-style environment. Set just minutes from the Twin Cities, this is a rare opportunity to enjoy refined living, natural beauty, and an active, connected community in a truly special setting. Showings begin on May 21.
