6977 Oak Ridge Court Shakopee, MN 55379

For those who are looking for not just a great house, but a great property, I present 6977 Oak Ridge Court. This 2010-built two-story is a great house that sits on an even better, .56-acre lot. The back yard is huge and flat, and surrounded by a 6-foot cedar privacy fence installed recently by the owners. Beyond this terrific fenced back yard sits one of the most picturesque woodlands in the area. The views from the great room, kitchen, master suite and lower-level family room are stunning.

Inside you will find three terrifically finished levels with all the amenities you would expect from a nearly 4,000sf newer construction home. Some bonus features include a 'loft-like' gathering area on the upper level in addition to the four bedrooms up there, a main-floor office abutting a 3/4 bath -- perfect for an owner who may someday host a guest who cannot easily navigate stairs -- and a walk-out lower level just finished by the owners last year that provides another great guest area in the form of a 5th bedroom and a 4th bathroom. In addition there is a huge unfinished storage area downstairs that is roughly 26x14.
