An acre-plus of mature trees, total privacy, and a home with real history; this is the kind of setting that rarely comes up in Excelsior. Tucked into a quiet, wooded enclave just minutes from the lakes and easy access to Highway 7, 6930 Foxglove Circle delivers the rare combination of seclusion and convenience. The current owners undertook a thoughtful renovation that respects the home's original character: refinished hardwood floors, fresh paint, designer wallpaper, updated lighting, and refreshed bathrooms; all executed to preserve the historic detail rather than erase it. Three wood-burning fireplaces anchor the home's warmth, while two separate living rooms give you room to spread out, entertain, or just close a door. A formal dining room sets the stage for real gatherings, and four bedrooms plus two bathrooms comfortably fit family or guests. A basement workshop rounds things out for anyone who wants dedicated project space. Homes with this much land, this much character, and this much privacy don't come around often; this is one to see in person.
