Wildwood on White Bear

Set on a rare, flat lakeside lot, the home pairs timeless cottage character with modern refinement. Expansive Andersen windows frame the water throughout, while warm white oak, detailed millwork, custom cabinetry, natural stone, and thoughtfully selected lighting bring depth and personality to the interiors. At the heart of the home, an 11-foot great room with handcrafted box beams and a dramatic wall of windows flows into a custom kitchen, dining area, four-season porch, and outdoor living spaces overlooking the lake. A private Wellness Center—with sauna, cold plunge, shower, and changing area—was designed specifically around the family’s active, year-round lake lifestyle.

Upstairs, the lake-facing owner’s suite offers a serene retreat with a box-vault ceiling, spa-inspired bath, freestanding soaking tub, and sweeping water views. A charming porthole window—an architectural detail seen in select architect-designed homes around White Bear Lake—creates a magical, unexpected glimpse of the water from inside the suite. From the reading room and expansive bonus space to the covered lakeside patio and fire table, every detail was considered to make this home feel personal, welcoming, and deeply connected to the lake.
