Surrounded by mature forest, abundant wildlife, and the quiet sounds of nature, the property feels like a private retreat just minutes from the conveniences of the Twin Cities east metro. Thoughtfully updated throughout, the home showcases warm architectural character with elevated finishes, including enameled millwork, crown molding, shiplap, paneled accents, all-new lighting, new carpet, white oak laminate flooring, and updated knockdown ceiling texture. The refreshed kitchen features quartz countertops, a new sink, and stainless-steel appliances, while the remodeled bathrooms offer new tile, quality vanities, and upgraded plumbing fixtures. The inviting primary suite also includes a fully renovated bathroom, a walk-in closet and a private deck, perfectly suited for enjoying a quiet morning coffee or relaxing with a good book. The walkout lower level is designed for gathering and relaxing, featuring a spacious family room with a wet bar and wood-burning fireplace. An extra-deep garage provides excellent storage, along with a heated finished workshop space ideal for hobbies and projects. Outdoor amenities further distinguish the property, with an extensive walking trail system (see trail map of the property toward end of pictures), secluded wooded acreage, and the tranquil waterfall rock garden. Located at the end of the recently asphalted Strawberry Hill cul-de-sac, the setting offers privacy, quiet, and a low-traffic neighborhood feel. Conveniently positioned near I-94, downtown Hudson restaurants, Woodbury shopping, and approximately one mile from Afton Marina, this remarkable property delivers elevated acreage living in one of the Twin Cities area's most picturesque communities.
