Welcome home to this beautifully maintained and thoughtfully updated property located in the heart of Waconia. This home offers a fantastic layout with the primary bedroom on the main floor, just steps from an updated, stylish full bathroom. The living room has been updated with board and batten and built-in shelving, giving the space a welcoming and timeless charm. The kitchen is large and functional with abundant counter space and cabinetry, perfect for those who love to cook or entertain. It flows seamlessly into the dining area, and a nearby patio door leads directly to the deck, creating an easy indoor-outdoor connection. Upstairs are three bedrooms, each with excellent closet space. You’ll also find the attic door leading to a great storage area, but with the potential to finish and expand your living space. The basement adds even more room to enjoy, with two separate finished spaces. One is ideal as a family room or office, and the other is currently used as a recreation room, complete with sconce lighting along one wall—great for a future bar or cozy movie nights. A large utility room doubles as laundry space and offers extra storage, and a lower-level bathroom with a shower adds extra convenience for guests or daily use. Outside, the fully fenced backyard is ready for fun, featuring a deck for grilling or lounging, a fire pit to enjoy evenings with friends and family, and a garden space to finish off the backyard. One of the standout features is the rare oversized 3-car garage—perfect for cars, boats, hobby gear, or workshop space, with even more storage above the third stall. There's also room beside the garage to park your boat or trailer. Recent improvements include brand new windows on the main and upper levels, fresh interior paint, planter boxes on the front of the house and a modernized main-level bathroom. With tons of living space, functional layout, and plenty of storage inside and out, this home is truly ready for its next owner. Don’t wait—come and make this Waconia gem yours
