Description

Built in 1952 on the quiet, non-public shoreline of Gilfillan Lake, this genuine mid-century modern home was designed around a single idea: bring the outside in. A wall of windows frames the water and mature white oaks from an elevated perch above the canopy, while eleven exterior doors mean you are never more than a few steps from the lake. Mornings start with coffee by the water. Summers mean the dock, a paddleboard, or an afternoon on the shore. Winters bring a private skating rink right on the...Built in 1952 on the quiet, non-public shoreline of Gilfillan Lake, this genuine mid-century modern home was designed around a single idea: bring the outside in. A wall of windows frames the water and mature white oaks from an elevated perch above the canopy, while eleven exterior doors mean you are never more than a few steps from the lake. Mornings start with coffee by the water. Summers mean the dock, a paddleboard, or an afternoon on the shore. Winters bring a private skating rink right on the ice, with a hot tub waiting after. Inside, the character is original and rare: terrazzo floors with brass edging, a wood-burning fireplace, fluted glass in a step-down shower, and built-in planters that connect the interior with the outdoors. Over the years, the owners have cared for this home with intention, preserving its original mid-century character while making thoughtful upgrades, right down to locally sourced Minnesota limestone. Set within North Oaks' private roads, this is a rare home and a way of life.
