Where Greenwood’s “Little G” Meets Premier Home Remodeling

Fun Fact: Greenwood is the smallest municipality on Lake Minnetonka at just 0.34 square miles, creating an exclusive enclave of fewer than 1,000 residents. The city occupies a peninsula between St. Albans Bay and Excelsior Bay, offering exceptional waterfront views from nearly every property. Despite its tiny footprint, Greenwood maintains its own identity and governance while providing residents with an intimate community setting surrounded by water on three sides.

AMEK Design + Build enhances Greenwood’s distinctive neighborhoods through thoughtful renovations – from historic lakeside retreats to contemporary waterfront estates. When your Greenwood home needs transformation, we preserve its architectural character while creating modern spaces that maximize the peninsula’s unique water views and exclusive character.

Our team has nearly three decades of experience addressing Minnesota climate challenges, ensuring your remodel performs beautifully year-round while maximizing energy efficiency during our harsh winters and humid summers.

When is the best time to start a remodeling project in Greenwood, MN?

We build all year, but start planning 3-6 months ahead. April through October works best for outdoor projects during our Minnesota construction season. Winter months are perfect for indoor work. We’ll help schedule around our state’s weather patterns for the smoothest project timeline.

We create realistic walkthroughs that account for Minnesota‘s unique natural light patterns throughout the year, helping you make confident decisions about your space.

Value & Materials

Do you incorporate Minnesota-made materials in your projects?

Whenever possible, we source locally made fixtures, cabinetry, and materials from Minnesota craftspeople and suppliers. This supports our local economy while providing unique design elements with Greenwood, MN character. From Cambria countertops to locally milled woodwork, we can incorporate authentic materials that tell your home’s story.

How does AMEK help homeowners maximize value in Greenwood, MN's real estate market?

Building & Regulations
