About this home
Simplify your space. Elevate your lifestyle. Imagine a sunny fall afternoon overlooking the fairways at The Royal Golf Club, followed by hot cider on the patio as the sun goes down and a cozy evening beside the fireplace. This exceptional modern farmhouse brings together sophisticated design, generous spaces, and an extraordinary golf-course setting in one of Lake Elmo’s most distinctive communities.
Positioned on a premier homesite with beautiful views across the course, the home offers an uncommon sense of openness and privacy. Walls of windows bring the changing seasons indoors, while the thoughtfully landscaped and fenced backyard—with established perennial gardens, curated plantings and irrigation—creates an outdoor setting that is already complete and ready to enjoy.
The expansive main level is designed for comfortable everyday living as well as entertaining. Three bedrooms, including the primary suite, are all located on the main floor, along with 36" doors and a flexible room with French doors that can serve as an office, library, music room or den. The open living and dining spaces gather around the fireplace and flow naturally into the beautifully appointed kitchen, where generous workspaces, premium Monogram appliances and thoughtful storage make both everyday meals and larger gatherings easy.
The primary suite offers privacy, generous proportions and a beautifully finished bath and walk-in closet. Main-level laundry and carefully planned storage add to the ease of one-level living.
The finished lower level provides exceptional flexibility with a spacious family room and second fireplace, fourth bedroom and full bath, fitness room, game and recreation areas, office space and a woodworker’s shop. Plumbing is already in place for a future wet bar. Whether hosting overnight guests, enjoying movie night by the fire or creating dedicated space for hobbies and projects, the lower level expands the way the home can live.
Thoughtful upgrades are found throughout, including an Andersen A-Series 8' x 8' patio door, upgraded electrical and lighting, EV charging capability, garage-heat rough-in, passive radon system, gas line for outdoor grilling, hot-tub electrical connection, smart-home features and individual drip irrigation capability to the landscaping.
Perhaps the best amenity is just outside the backyard: direct access to the golf-course setting and the lifestyle of The Royal. Enjoy walking and biking paths throughout the neighborhood, plus the HOA outdoor pool and fitness facility. Optional membership at The Royal Golf Club offers golf, pickleball, and additional club amenities. Beyond The Royal, the location offers an appealing balance of natural beauty and convenience. Downtown Lake Elmo is just minutes away, with local restaurants, shops, and community destinations, while nearby Lake Elmo Park Reserve encompasses more than 2,100 acres of preserved landscape with hiking and biking trails, a swim pond, fishing, paddling, playgrounds, and camping. The brand-new Lake Elmo Elementary School opened for the 2026 school year, offering a modern new campus within Stillwater Area Public Schools. Beyond the peaceful golf-course setting, the home is conveniently connected to the Twin Cities, with MSP International Airport roughly a half-hour drive away under normal conditions.
From crisp fall afternoons on the course and cider at sunset to fireside evenings at home, 1461 Palmer offers the chance to simplify your life while elevating the experience every day....
