1366 W Winona Rd SW Alexandria, MN 56308

Listing details for 1366 W Winona Rd SW, Alexandria, MN 56308 : Farmhouse in the City at the Lake! Escape to the country without giving up the convenience of Alexandria. Tucked onto 5.1 acres with approximately 300 feet of shoreline on Lake Winona, this 4-bedroom home offers the space, privacy, waterfront, pasture, and an outbuilding you’d expect to find miles outside of town—yet downtown Alexandria and the southern business district are only minutes away. Enjoy the character of a farmhouse with the feel of a much newer home. Remodeled to the studs in 2006, with the walkout level finished in 2016, the home has been thoughtfully updated while maintaining its comfortable farmhouse feel. Fresh interior paint, new custom window treatments, newer stainless steel kitchen appliances, and a new well pressure tank are among the recent improvements. But the real attraction is the setting. Wake up to the sunrise over Lake Winona, enjoy morning coffee from the lakeside kitchen or large deck, and end the day surrounded by acreage, pasture, and water—all within the city. The roomy walkout lower level adds another dimension to the property. With its own private entrance, bedroom, living area, kitchenette, and walkout access, it offers the flexibility to create separate living quarters for extended family or guests—or potentially provide rental income to help offset ownership costs. Hydronic in-floor heat is installed in the lower level and ready to be put into service. And then there’s the new 40' x 60' barn and shop—a tremendous addition to an already unique property. Steel-sided with skylights, a concrete floor, electrical service, and a rear door opening directly to the pasture, it provides incredible space for horses, a workshop, equipment, recreational toys, storage, or a combination of uses. The seller has kept horses here, and the yard and pasture are fenced with electric fencing installed to follow the city’s agricultural fencing requirements. Imagine stepping outside your door to horses in the pasture, spending the afternoon in the shop, or paddleboarding, kayaking, or putting around the lake on your pontoon—then being just minutes from everything Alexandria has to offer. Please note: The City is currently completing sewer construction near both entrances to the property, making access temporarily less than ideal. See listing photos for current directions. Construction progress and any changes to the best access route will be updated as work progresses. The inconvenience is temporary, and once completed, the new roads and services will further enhance this special setting. There is no cost to the homeowner and no assessment for this project. 5.1 acres. Approximately 300 feet of Lake Winona shoreline. A new 40' x 60' barn and shop. Room for horses. Flexible separate living space. And Alexandria just minutes away. It’s a combination that is difficult to duplicate—a chance to escape to the country without ever really leaving the city.
