Listed on May 28, 2025 for a jaw-dropping $55 million, this sprawling estate is tucked away on eight private acres in the small, historic community of Woodland. The address is 2770 Gale Road, and it sits on 655 feet of west-facing shoreline with stunning sunset views of Lake Minnetonka, which the listing refers to as “the Hamptons of the Midwest.”

With nearly 29,000 square feet of living space, including 8 bedrooms and 18 bathrooms, this place is less of a home and more of a private resort.

And yes, that price tag comes with a hefty estimated monthly mortgage of $312,000, plus property taxes that will set you back nearly $25,000 a month. But when you see what’s included, it starts to make sense.

This incredible property was finished in 2024 and took over seven years to bring to life, two for design and five for construction, according to the listing.

The estate is overflowing with luxury: two guest houses, a pool house, a bowling alley, a theater, bars, an indoor golf simulator, a lake porch, and a boathouse right at the water’s edge, just to name a few.

According to the listing, “every aspect of the property is adorned with high-end, imported, hand-selected, and curated finishes.” And while words like “breathtaking” and “unparalleled” get thrown around a lot in luxury real estate, in this case, they might actually be understatements.

There’s also a deeply personal story behind this home. The original owner, who was heavily involved in every detail, sadly passed away before the home was completed or certified for occupancy. That means this architectural masterpiece has never officially been lived in.

If you’ve ever dreamed of having your own private country club, this is it. The listing itself even calls it “a true masterpiece… a Crown Jewel,” and that feels pretty accurate.
