Land with Home for Sale in Medina, Minnesota

Some homes have a story to tell-and this is one of them. Lovingly cared for by the same family since it was built, this one-of-a-kind Medina property has evolved over the years through thoughtful additions, quality improvements, and a genuine pride of ownership that is evident throughout. Set on 2.5 private acres in the highly regarded Orono school district, the setting is every bit as special as the home itself. The back yard offers a combination flat green space and incredible privacy, surrounded by mature trees that create a beautiful natural backdrop. With 4,700 finished square feet, 5 bedrooms, multiple living spaces, and six garage stalls, this home offers exceptional flexibility. The expansive kitchen and dining area naturally serve as the home's central gathering space, featuring custom ceiling-height cabinetry, Corian countertops, a center island with cooktop/range, prep sink, and seating. The spacious dining area easily accommodates an oversized table, making it ideal for holiday gatherings, dinner parties, and everyday meals, while offering direct access to the 21x26 no-maintenance deck. Beautiful hardwood floors and solid six-panel doors add warmth and classic style throughout. The well-designed floor plan includes four upper level bedrooms, plus a main level bedroom that connects through French doors to an impressive 23x33 bonus room. A dedicated main level office could easily become a sixth bedroom with the addition of a closet. The spacious main level bathroom features an oversized vanity and jetted soaking tub, while the flexible bedroom configuration allows the primary to be located on either the main or upper level. The walkout lower level is designed for gathering and entertaining, complete with a family room anchored by a brick-surround fireplace, a huge game room, exercise room, cold storage room (future wine cellar!), laundry area, and even a fun "Harry Potter" closet. Direct access to the insulated 3-car tuckunder garage adds everyday convenience, and piping is already in place for future in-floor heat in a 10x30 lower level area. Outdoor living is equally impressive with a large composite deck, two paver patios, and two storage sheds-including a 12x20 shed with loft that would make an ideal playhouse, studio, or he/she shed. Car enthusiasts, hobbyists, and those needing extra storage will appreciate the six garage stalls, including a heated and insulated attached 2-car garage, an insulated 3-car tuckunder garage, and a separate 1-car tuckunder garage with a 10-foot overhead door. Additional features include dual zoned furnaces and air conditioners, a 104-gallon Marathon water heater, hard-wired ethernet throughout the home, bedrooms wired for off-peak radiant heat, and numerous recent updates including upper level carpet, windows, water softener, iron filter, septic components, smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, and more. The roof was replaced with 30-year GAF shingles in 2010. And for a truly memorable conversation piece- this home was featured on HGTV's original "Decorating Cents" Dream Wedding episode with Joan Steffend. Whether you're gathering with family, pursuing hobbies, entertaining friends, or simply enjoying the privacy of acreage living, this property offers the space to do it all.
