The living room and sunroom in this home are two separate spaces that still feel connected.

Open sightlines and large windows move natural light from one room to the next, so the main level feels open without losing the feel of distinct rooms.

The sunroom is the one we would never leave. A wall of windows, French doors to the patio, and a warm wood ceiling make it a room the family can use in October when the trees turn and in January when everything outside is white.

We are building something special on Lake Minnetonka and it is time to finally give you all a first look!

Minnetonka Colonial Revival brings a fresh perspective to one of the most timeless architectural styles in American design.

Traditional materials like applied molding and marble countertops carry throughout the entire home rather than being reserved for just the formal spaces, creating a consistent sense of quality from room to room.

This is a family home at its core, designed to feel just as comfortable on a quiet weeknight as it does when the house is full of friends and family.

Set to be completed in 2027, this Lake Minnetonka residence proves that a home can feel established and timeless from the day the key turns.

Traditional architecture with a fresh, unexpected interior. Natural light, warm white oak, and soft color make every room in the Abbott City Cottage feel bright and easy to live in, with a curved white oak island right off the living room.

The design is a win, but the real stars of our shoot was our little model who made happily made himself at home.

Fairytales are real in North Oaks, Minnesota.

The North Oaks Estate blends classic European cottage architecture with a natural stone exterior, arched French doors, and soft blue shutters that give the whole home a storybook feel.

Every curved roofline and detail was chosen to make this house feel timeless rather than trendy.

Tell us in the comments which detail you would want to recreate in your own home.

Not every builder will show you every bid.

City Homes prices every custom home and remodel on a cost plus, fully open book basis, which means our clients see every bid and invoice before it is ever approved, with all trade discounts passed directly back to them.

We also quote our price per square foot to include everything, architect fees, interior designer fees, and landscaping, so there are no surprises later in the process.

Every bay on Lake Minnetonka has its own personality.

City Homes has built custom lake homes across Crystal Bay, Jennings Bay, Smithtown Bay, and Grays Bay, and each one is designed around how the family actually uses the water, the dock, and the outdoor space.

Whether it is a retirement retreat or a home meant to hold three generations at once, we design lake homes that are built to be used and enjoyed for decades.

Comment your favorite Minnesota lake below and tell us why.

What does it actually cost to build a custom home in Edina or Lake Minnetonka.

It is one of the first questions every client asks us, and the honest answer is that most custom builds in our area fall between 400 and 600 dollars per square foot, with high end finishes pushing closer to 800 dollars or more.

City Homes prices every project on a cost plus, fully open book basis, so our clients see every bid and invoice before it is approved.

Extra space does not have to mean a bigger house.

Accessory dwelling units, sometimes called ADUs, are reshaping the way homeowners across the Twin Cities think about guest houses, home offices, and multigenerational living, and City Homes has built several right here in Edina.

We break down everything from cost to permitting to design in our full guide on the blog.
