12,792 sq. ft. built in 2000; 6 bed, 7 bath. Hope you like trendy shiplap.

Owned by Scott M. Honour, retired Senior Managing Director of The Gores Group, a private equity firm. Prior to that, he was managing director at UBS Warburg, an investment banker and vice president for Merchant Banking Group at Donaldson, Lufkin, & Jenrette. In 2010, he put his six-bedroom, seven-bath home at 1466 Bienveneda Ave. in Pacific Palisades, California up for sale for $8.95 million. Honour retired as senior manager in 2012. He opted to bring his wife and three kids to Minnesota and spent over $15 million buying the property (over $9m for the house plus the neighboring property).

He was a major contributor to the recount effort for Republican Senator Norm Coleman vs eventual winner Al Franken, and had a failed bid running for Minnesota governor.

The home was last purchased on May 25 2007 for $9,750,000; in 1997 the property sold for $1,800,000. The home, built in 1999, has 5 bedrooms and 5.25 baths in 8,649 sq ft on 2.97 acres.

Put on the market for $11,500,000 in June 2016; later reduced to $9,500,000 in February 2017.
