2255 French Creek Circle, Wayzata, MN 55391 French Lake is visible from the front of the house, and very little emphasis on neighboring properties. Gracious and charming exterior, and it only continues as you enter the house! Welcome to lovely French Creek neighborhood, a private alcove of 17 residences. Manicured gardens flock the pathway to the front of the house. Set on a picturesque lot with pretty views, perennials and shrubs gracing the pool. Established trees, circular driveway and in addition to the nearly 2 acres of property, the association owns additional acreage creating even more buffer within the neighborhood. The foyer is vaulted with a charming "eyebrow" dormer window, and leads to the impressive common living spaces. Greenery and light spills from nearly every direction in the foyer, which opens to the staircase. To the left is the mudroom and primary suite, to the right is the living spaces. The foyer features white oak inlaid in a herringbone pattern, pretty sconces and a coat closet for ease. The living room features the dramatic Palladian window, white oak floors, and cathedral ceilings with exposed beams. Magical. One of the jewels of this home is this window, enjoyed both inside and out. This area has undergone a complete remodel by Carrigan Curtis with smooth ceilings, elevated moldings, arched openings, for architectural interest and good design. The living room opens to the dining room (on the right), and carries the repeated arch through the upstairs and arched openings into the kitchen/family room. The arched openings thoughtfully correspond to the surrounding architecture, with the utmost craftsmanship. The dining room has a pretty window seat overlooking the front, and ample seating for 8-10 guests. 2255 French Creek Circle, Wayzata, MN 55391 2255 French Creek Circle, Wayzata, MN 55391 2255 French Creek Circle, Wayzata, MN 55391 The Subzero refrigerator is flanked by two pantries on either side, exceptionally designed to be European and less "suburban". Arched design thoughtfully corresponds with one another. There is a beverage cooler just to the left of the lower cabinet doors. Good design creates a striking design moment. The sink overlooks the private backyard, and has extra depth of countertop for herbs, florals or produce. Behind the island is the pull out microwave, neatly stored, two dishwashers and beautiful lighting fixtures. Gorgeous, custom vent hood is one of the focal points in this kitchen -- one from every angle. The 42" La Cornue range is dual fuel and features double ovens (one convection), and stainless and brass hardware with patina finish. Off the kitchen there is a bar area with extra glass display shelves for barware, the breakfast area, porch and family room. Lovely garden window for potted herbs (southern exposure). The eat in area is well connected to the kitchen, but comfortably seats six, overlooking the wooded grounds. 2255 French Creek Circle, Wayzata, MN 55391 White oak runs throughout the living/entertaining spaces, and here the three season porch is off the informal dining area, which also steps down into the family room. The family room has been thoughtfully enhanced with new windows on either side of the fireplace, which was once built ins. The lower cabinets still provide plenty of pull out cabinet storage. There is nothing but green outside nearly every window. West facing windows with bucolic, private views. The family room has a gas fireplace, and also provides access to the porch, as well as lots of light from the sliding doors. The family room also features vaulted ceilings, and the step down makes it cozy and comfortable. The three season porch has access to the deck, and overlooks the pool area and wooded acreage. The deck is one of two outdoor eating areas, overlooking the grounds and some of the pool. The main floor bedroom has corner windows that overlook the backyard, southern facing exposure. The primary bedroom overlooks the backyard, and the deck and pool area off in the distance. 2255 French Creek Circle, Wayzata, MN 55391 The owner's suite consists of dual sinks and private water closet (door on the right), walk-in closet (to the left) and arched marble shower. Beautiful custom cabinetry at vanity, and also in water cl 2255 French Creek Circle, Wayzata, MN 55391 The soaking tub is positioned under the large window with extremely private views! The marble cased shower took great skill, care and multiple weeks to construct in the signature arch, The powder bathroom is studded with beautiful things: the oversized pedestal sink is a wow factor. Just off the mudroom is the laundry room, but with lots of extra cabinets, a sink and window overlooking the backyard -- the perfect butler's pantry or flower room, too! 2255 French Creek Circle, Wayzata, MN 55391 2255 French Creek Circle, Wayzata, MN 55391 2255 French Creek Circle, Wayzata, MN 55391 2255 French Creek Circle, Wayzata, MN 55391 2255 French Creek Circle, Wayzata, MN 55391 2255 French Creek Circle, Wayzata, MN 55391 2255 French Creek Circle, Wayzata, MN 55391 2255 French Creek Circle, Wayzata, MN 55391 2255 French Creek Circle, Wayzata, MN 55391 2255 French Creek Circle, Wayzata, MN 55391 2255 French Creek Circle, Wayzata, MN 55391 2255 French Creek Circle, Wayzata, MN 55391 2255 French Creek Circle, Wayzata, MN 55391 2255 French Creek Circle, Wayzata, MN 55391 2255 French Creek Circle, Wayzata, MN 55391 2255 French Creek Circle, Wayzata, MN 55391 2255 French Creek Circle, Wayzata, MN 55391 2255 French Creek Circle, Wayzata, MN 55391 2255 French Creek Circle, Wayzata, MN 55391 2255 French Creek Circle, Wayzata, MN 55391 2255 French Creek Circle, Wayzata, MN 55391 2255 French Creek Circle, Wayzata, MN 55391 2255 French Creek Circle, Wayzata, MN 55391 2255 French Creek Circle, Wayzata, MN 55391 2255 French Creek Circle, Wayzata, MN 55391 2255 French Creek Circle, Wayzata, MN 55391 2255 French Creek Circle, Wayzata, MN 55391 2255 French Creek Circle, Wayzata, MN 55391 2255 French Creek Circle, Wayzata, MN 55391 2255 French Creek Circle, Wayzata, MN 55391 Architectural beauty at every turn, even the first one -- pretty columns greet you upon entertaining French Creek.

Property Description
Discover this extraordinary residence tucked at the end of a private cul-de-sac in the coveted French Creek neighborhood. Set on 1.64-acres of manicured grounds, the property offers exceptional privacy and wooded views. This home blends timeless European elegance with modern comfort, craftsmanship, and exquisite taste. The main level was extensively remodeled in two phases (2019 and 2021) by Carrigan Curtis Design & Build. Every selection was made with thoughtful intention, resulting in a refined, cohesive aesthetic throughout. Sun-filled spaces flow seamlessly, enhanced by white oak hardwood floors, cathedral ceilings, archways, and a peaceful, sophisticated palette. The living room is crowned by a dramatic custom Palladian window-one of the home’s signature features - framing sweeping views of the wooded acreage. The stunning designer kitchen is a showpiece, highlights including custom enameled cabinetry, a 42” La Cornue range with patina brass accents, Sub-Zero refrigerator, beverage center, and a sunny garden window above the sink. The adjacent breakfast room and generous dining room welcome both intimate meals and larger gatherings. A vaulted family room with new windows and custom built-ins opens to the charming three-season porch and upper deck overlooking the pool. The main-level primary suite is a calming retreat with corner windows and a spectacular marble-clad bathroom offering dual vanities, a soaking tub, walk-in shower with repeating arch detail, and a spacious custom closet. Thoughtfully designed storage is abundant, including a large mudroom with custom lockers and a multifunctional laundry room. Upstairs are three bright bedrooms - each with southern views - and a full bath with dual vanities and excellent storage. The walkout lower level offers two additional bedrooms, a bathroom with sauna and towel room, expansive storage options, and access to the beautifully landscaped pool area surrounded by hydrangeas and peaceful nature views. French Creek is an intimate, private community of just seventeen homes with acres of preserved woodlands, two tennis courts (one lined for pickleball), and a reservable gazebo with fireplace. The roof was recently replaced. Driveway, mechanicals, appliances, and septic are all newer. Ideally located minutes from downtown Wayzata, marinas, the Lafayette, Woodhill, and Wayzata Country Clubs, and miles of nearby trails. Served by top-rated Orono Schools, this is a rare opportunity for refined main-level living in an unmatched setting.
