If waking up to water views and a lush garden patio the home is waiting for you. Set along the water in one of Southwest Rochester's most desirable townhome communities, 1853 Traders Point Lane SW offers a lifestyle that rarely becomes available. Peaceful pond views, miles of nearby walking trails, main-floor living, and the convenience of an HOA-all just minutes from downtown Rochester, Mayo Clinic, shopping, dining, and everyday amenities. Waterfront opportunities this close to the heart of Rochester are exceptionally hard to find. Inside, the thoughtfully designed floor plan offers over 3,000 square feet with four bedrooms and three full bathrooms, including three bedrooms on the main level-an uncommon feature that makes everyday living incredibly comfortable. The spacious primary suite overlooks the water, while soaring ceilings, abundant natural light, and an open-concept design create warm, inviting spaces that are equally suited for quiet mornings or entertaining family and friends. Beautiful finishes throughout, including engineered hardwood floors, quartz countertops, custom built-ins, and a stunning kitchen with a large center island, make the home feel both elegant and welcoming. Main-floor laundry and direct access from the mudroom to the primary closet add convenience you'll appreciate every single day. Upstairs, you'll find even more flexibility with a generous family room, fourth bedroom, and full bath-perfect for guests, hobbies, a home office, or multi-generational living. But what truly sets this home apart is what happens when you look beyond the walls. Imagine starting your morning with coffee overlooking the water, watching wildlife visit the pond, taking an evening stroll on nearby city trails, and coming home to a beautifully maintained community where lawn care and snow removal are taken care of for you. It's the kind of lifestyle that's increasingly difficult to find. This is one of those homes that simply feels different the moment you walk through the front door. The views, the natural light, the peaceful setting, and the thoughtful layout all come together in a way that photographs can never fully capture. To truly appreciate everything this home has to offer, you have to experience it in person.
