Move over, curb appeal. From its spacious master suite to its top-of-the-line appliances and sound system, Ryland Homes has crafted a home that will last long past its impressive first impression.

The master suite shows how well this home uses its 3,454 square feet. Opening off of French doors, the master bedroom features a vaulted ceiling and an expansive master bath. The adjacent walk-in closet has room for an optional dressing island as well.

In addition to the other four bedrooms and two-and-a-half baths, this house has enough special spots for every member of the family. The four-season sun porch is perfect for reading anytime during the year. Family gatherings can be cozy next to the family room’s gas fireplace or competitive in the fourteen-by-twenty-six-foot recreation room. And the home theater is wired by Best Buy for music and surround sound so you can get the most out of your entertainment.

This house tops off those larger features with attention to detail. The laundry facilities are conveniently located on the second floor, making the chore a little more tolerable. The gourmet kitchen boasts GE Monogram stainless steel appliances, pendant lights over the center island, and Silestone countertops, while elements such as six-panel maple doors, a three-inch maple hardwood floor, Andersen windows, recessed lighting, and a knockdown ceiling carry through the entire home.

All this is just steps away from miles of walking paths, views of the nearby river valley, and seventy acres of dedicated open space. It only takes minutes to reach a thriving commercial center and nearby Eden Prairie schools. Come see why Money Magazine named Eden Prairie one of the Top 10 Places to Live in 2006.
