Overview

Description

2025 Fall Reggie Award Winning Home! Experience refined new construction in Ensconced Woods of Chaska. Built by McDonald Construction Partners, this 5,189-sq-ft home combines architectural detail, functional design, and premium finishes in a quiet cul-de-sac along a protected bluff line overlooking a scenic pond. The open-concept main level showcases a chef’s kitchen with built-in paneled appliances, a 48” professional gas range with double oven, quartz countertops, large center island, and walk-in pantry. The adjoining dinette opens to a four-season sunroom with full-height glass and access to a Trex deck overlooking the east-facing backyard. The gathering room features a box-vault ceiling with wood accents and a sleek fireplace focal point. A main-level office with double doors, powder bath, and mudroom with lockers complete the main floor. Upstairs, the vaulted primary suite captures morning light from east-facing windows and includes a spacious walk-in closet plus a spa-style bath with freestanding soaking tub, tiled shower, and dual vanities. Three additional bedrooms complete the upper level — two connected by a Jack-and-Jill bath, and a third with its own private bath. A laundry room with utility sink adds convenience and functionality. The finished lower level features 10-foot ceilings and expands the home’s living space with a large family room, dedicated golf simulator area, exercise room, wet bar with seating, and a full bath — ideal for recreation and entertaining. The walkout patio provides direct access to the backyard and scenic pond, creating seamless indoor-outdoor connection. Outdoor highlights include a Trex deck, covered front porch, asphalt driveway, full sod and irrigation system, and an east-facing backyard backing to the protected bluff and pond. Energy-efficient systems include zoned HVAC with smart thermostat, high-performance windows, and durable exterior materials for long-term efficiency and low maintenance. Conveniently located near Firemen’s Park (0.8 mi), downtown Chaska shops and restaurants (1.0 mi), Starbucks and Dunn Bros Coffee (0.9 mi), and Highway 212 access (1.3 mi). Recreation options include Chaska Town Course (1.4 mi) and the Minnesota Landscape Arboretum (3.0 mi). Showcased in the Parade of Homes, this residence features designer-selected finishes throughout and an interactive 3D walkthrough
