      <title><![CDATA[SOPHISTICATED RENOVATION  |  Bright, open, walkout, private  |  Main floor master suite]]></title>
      <link>http://www.distinctivehomesmn.com/listing-details.asp?ListingID=16072</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<img src='http://www.skyetools.net/images/petersenjenstad/listings/id17357-mlsNon-MLS-listing16072.jpg' height='100' border='0' style='float:left; margin-right:10px; margin-bottom:10px;' />After a top-to-bottom renovation, this townhome is completely turn-key.  Situated on a private lot in a private (and quiet) development, this home is a peaceful respite from the hustle and bustle. 
The main level features a grand, open plan with a central living/family room flanked by the foyer, kitchen, and the dining room — and deck access…
New granite, decorative Doric columns, tile work, appliances, marble, refinished hardwood, hardware, knock-down ceilings, bathrooms, carpet, kitchen, deck boards, plumbing and A/V wiring present a current and polished look and feel.  The rich texture and depth of the wainscot panels, tray-vaulted ceiling and dark stained hardwood floors against the enameled woodwork creates a comfortable and inviting setting.  The kitchen offers an eat-in area as well as a large wrap around breakfast bar at the island.  The spaces flow seamlessly with a great sun-room ready for whatever you choose to do with the space.  The new master suite offers a changing room, Jacuzzi tub, great shower and new tile work all the way around.  The peaceful, private view from the bedroom offers the owner a wonderful view.   The main powder room was completely refinished with custom tile work, a custom Mahogany vanity and marble counter-top.  
The lower level offers 9 foot ceilings with a walkout to a patio—plentiful windows flood the lower level with daylight.  The rear yard offers space for yard games and garden parties.  
The family room features a reclaimed, hand carved fireplace surround and mantle with marble surround and solid oak built-ins.  The brand new 500 bottle wine cellar features a sink, multiple serving/prep spaces, ambient lighting, wine refrigerator and custom cabinetry.
Another bedroom and an office (legal bedroom) round out the lower level.  A full bath with dual vanities serves the lower level and has been tastefully updated to an up-to-date feel.
The mechanicals have been meticulously maintained; the floor of the mechanical room has been covered with an epoxy for durability and cleanliness.
From top to bottom, inside and out, sophisticated spaces offer flexibility for your entertaining and relaxing desires.
