A view from every angle. Amazing. I’d worry about flooding. However, if I could afford the house, I could afford not to worry. I love the pops of bright colors in an otherwise sterile house. Gives it warmth. $15.25M and worth every penny. As I suspected, this home is on Lake Minnetonka.
This is a beautiful estate,and if My husband and I get blessed $ a lot financially this year or next " We would like to purchase it"!. God Bless,one of the best mansions I have ever seen. Susan Sletten

I would guess the peninsula is man made as well. I’ve seen more precarious builds on stone cliffs in Duluth Minnesota. I would be petrified to live in the cliff homes with their giant retaining walls. As I said in my comment, if you can truly afford this home, you can afford not to worry.
@@irshduck Right? Given that a home resided previously on the spot since the 1950's without incident, the elite developers of the multimillion-dollar renovation just figured, "F^ck it! Let's just roll the dice!" 😉
Worth every penny if you won the lottery for 30 million , just think of the up keep , likely costs 50 thousand a year for all your taxes and privileges of the lake , electric bill would be crazy and heating the place . But like the one guy said if you have the money to purchase , you will likely be ok .
This land used to look a lot nicer before this characterless house got built here. Sticks out like a sore thumb on the point. It's also just a money grab on Sotheby's part. The house is assessed at like 7m, and it was purchased less than 10 years ago for under 3m. The price is just trying to make it look more premium than it is. I feel really sorry for any sucker that would actually pay 15m for this place
Sotheby's does not own the property. The *tax* assessment's $8-million. Tax assessed values are routinely lower than *market* assessed values. It was a teardown of a *1950's-era* home. And an entire floor was added. This explains its seemingly "low" 2014 price. Luxury realtors generate high-end buzz by aggressive price-points. Aggressive pricing ≠ absence of fair market value.
Minnesota is BEAUTIFUL! And it is the most expensive properties in all of Minnesota. Lake Minnetonka is a magical place! Nordic style homes on a beautiful lake with wonderful landscaping everywhere. Sure california or Florida is warmer but a winters day in Minnesota by a fire or on the ice is more heartwarming than 365 days in a one level florida home. I don't even own a home but support Minnesota forever!
There are many houses just down the road and across the bay that go for that much, but this house isn't one of those. This place sold for 2.5m back 2014, and has a current tax assessed value of ~7m. This is a complete money grab, and anyone who buys it for 15 is probably losing a lot of money

Couldn't agree more! This thing is almost as much an eyesore as the Disneyland house across the bay on Ferndale. And let's not even get started on what got built on the old Southaways mansion plot...
Yep, no thank you. I wouldn't want it even if it was given to me free with all expenses paid. I grew up in that area & know too well the sadness of many of the rich. Nannies & au pairs taking care of children because parents are too busy playing tennis, traveling, having affairs, shopping... or both parents simply too busy working to raise their own families. I have been that route too & know a mom at home & a dad working to provide for them is the healthiest life for all & for society. These kinds of houses should be few & far between. My wish is society can get back to what really matters & most see a mansion like this for what it truly is, & that is unrealistic, & meant to only be in fairy tales. Money laundering 101.......
What's wrong with MN? I was born and raised and still live within about 5 miles of this home. It's only considered one of the very best areas to live in the entire country. Minneapolis, on the other hand...
I'm trying to decrease my carbon footprint like Al Gore told me to do. I'm checking into purchasing this house and putting a couple additions on it and a swimming pool...Al Gore owns a total of 3 mansions so apparently there's a way for me to buy two more mansions besides this one and still claim I'm not a CO2 climate hypocrite.
Use to go fishing in this lake and I'll stop by this house almost all the time just looking at it while fishing.
Romantic.........
And Whoever decorated this place....A+

Luckily no flood problems since it has dam on the east end! Beautiful house
Lake Minnetonka is just fine.. unless you have a 3:15 pm appointment in Burnsville.
Drive by this house almost every day. Love living in this area.
I have never seen such a beautiful house! Stunning ❤️

Now that's the definition of "Magnificent Estate" 🥰
Superb! Has it all: perfect architecture, interior design and waterfront location. Truely a heritage property!

Damn, keep your 15m. There are better options all over lake Minnetonka, and in Wayzata, Orono, etc.
THANK YOU. Sotheby's is not showing this listing when using the link they provide🙄
@@nunyabusiness8441 Right? And to think they'll lose your purchase because of it. (Oh. Wait ... 😂)
Gorgeous home.
Give me thirty years and I'll make it into Grey Gardens North.
Hello. Stunning home! 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Gorgeous !
gorgeous home
Lovely but too close to the water level. Looks like it could sink the ground it's on. How far down do the foundations n pilings go?
I certainly agree. I don't like the proximity to water--too close.
Seems like people more qualified than us would have been retained for such considerations...just a hunch!

It's a shame the builders didn't consider a survey and capability of the land before building a 15million dollar home. Good catch Vicki

I would like the original home (torn down). This home does nothing for its surroundings.

I remember the house that used to be there. They ripped it down and built this monstrosity in 2016. I wonder why they're selling it already.
Taxes. Over $78k per year. Most people couldn't afford this home if given for free.

If I was going to buy a billion $ house, it WOULDN'T be in MN.🙄
Mn is a great state to live in.
Hey Vicki...I think your 3 year old logged in on your computer! I'd put them in a timeout!

No longer listed. Kind of a waste of time watching then.
*Whoops!* Re-listed as of Feb. 2023.
