6620 Buckthorn Drive NW,Rochester, MN 55901
Rochester, MN 55901
Description
Built in 2023 on more than ten (10) private acres of Northeast Rochester woodland, this 5,626 sq ft estate reflects a home planned with real intention, where every space was considered for how it would actually be used. A private drive winds through mature trees before opening onto the home, close enough to the Mayo Clinic area and downtown Rochester to matter, far enough to disappear the moment you arrive. A $175,000 Andersen window package runs throughout the home, framing woodland views from nearly every room. Great Room - The 27x20 great room is scaled for real gatherings, with vaulted ceilings and windows opening onto a woodland view that shifts with the seasons; deer and wild turkeys pass close enough to feel like neighbors. Kitchen - Hand-selected honed quartzite countertops meet a professional appliance package (double oven, wine cooler, Energy Star rated) and custom on-site cabinetry, built for cooking and hosting rather than just photographs. Primary Suite - The main-level primary suite opens to the same woodland views as the great room, with a custom on-site closet system, boot racks, and display cabinetry that removes the need for dressers entirely, plus an en-suite finished in natural stone and custom tile. Private Offices - Two separate offices give two people the ability to work from home on the same day, each with genuinely private space. Bedrooms - Upstairs, two additional bedrooms and a guest suite were planned as quiet retreats: comfortable, intimate spaces built for rest, while the home's living areas were scaled for gathering and entertaining. Second-Level Living - A 26x22 second living room upstairs gives guests, or anyone working from home, their own space entirely separate from the main floor. Custom Features - A dedicated Finnish sauna suite, a custom pet suite with its own sleeping cubby, bathing station, and pull-out feeding drawers, and an upper-level flex space engineered with reinforced load-bearing support for serious gym equipment and ceiling bracing built for a punching bag show the level of customization planned into this home from the start, not added after the fact. Throughout the home, wood paneling was hand-crafted on-site by Amish carpenters, a detail that speaks to the same level of intention. Garage -The four-stall garage is heated, insulated, and finished, with its own zoned comfort and room for vehicles and gear alike; a workspace as considered as the rest of the home. Systems & Comfort - Zoned in-floor radiant heat, a whole-home humidifier, dual-zone central air, remote electronic window shades, and a whole-home multi-zone Sonos system keep the home comfortable and quiet to run. Built in 2023 with real intention behind every space, 6620 Buckthorn is a rare offering in Rochester's luxury market.
