5498 Maple Ridge Court Tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this exceptional home offers a rare combination of privacy, nature and refined updates. A wooded backdrop and serene pond views set the stage, with frequent visits from deer, turkey, ducks and geese completing the picture. The property has been extensively renovated with a focus on quality and long-term durability. A full 2019 exterior overhaul introduced a new roof, James Hardie cement siding, soffits, fascia, gutters and Marvin Integrity Series windows — dramatically enhancing energy efficiency, natural light and curb appeal. Inside, oak hardwood floors, a wood-burning fireplace, updated paint and select new carpet create a warm and welcoming main level. The oversized owner's suite is a true retreat, featuring multiple walk-in closets and flexible bonus space ideal for a home office, workout room or nursery — with plumbing already roughed in for a second laundry room. The walk-out lower level is designed for entertaining, complete with a wet bar, full home theater and a cozy fireplace. A dedicated office on this level can easily serve as a fifth bedroom with minimal modification. Recent mechanical updates provide lasting peace of mind: a 2021 maintenance-free deck overlooking the water, epoxy-coated heated garage floor, 2023 zoned HVAC system, 2024 water heater and water softener. Ideally situated near Shady Oak Lake, Lone Lake Park, hiking trails and regional bike paths, the home delivers wooded seclusion without sacrificing convenience — just minutes from Eden Prairie Mall and Hopkins Main Street.
