Cedar Cove Retreat As you enter through the leaded glass front door into the tiled foyer, feast your eyes on the spectacular space before you. The natural light from the 2-story, west-facing wall of windows articulates the dramatic lines of loft and recessed ceilings. The space is great for entertaining. Your guests can relax in front of the marble, gas fireplace while you serve from your beautifully lit and conveniently located open kitchen, never missing a moment's conversation. The first floor den serves as a quiet retreat with its east light and view of the brick entrance patio. Everything is convenient and at your fingertips. The spacious master suite with its separate facilities and walk-in closet is located on this main level as well as the guest half bath and first floor laundry room. Upstairs you'll find two more bedrooms, one with its own balcony overlooking the main level deck and panoramic views of the pond, wetlands, and wildlife. It's a birder's delight. A large, completely finished storage room and the office/workroom are practical additions to this upper level. A second full bath is also on the second floor. The loft provides a bird's eye view of the dramatic interior spaces below and the serene exterior vistas beyond the deck. It's hard to believe that in this secluded, private and peaceful setting you are so close to downtown Minneapolis.
