Nestled on a wooded hillside, overlooking a pond and one block from Lake Johanna is a striking home designed by Minnesota architect George McGuire. Influenced by the prairie school, McGuire skillfully combined several of the aesthetic influences of the late 1960'5 when this house was built. Nature is present in every room of this home--breathtaking wooded views of the natural landscaping from the many large windows as well as from the three decks on the main level. A patio adjoins the lower level exercise space and there is another 40 foot deck on the lower level as well. Secluded, with private access to the Lake Johanna Beach Club, this home offers access to. a lifestyle that is rarely available in an urban setting-just minutes from both downtown St. Paul, Mpls and the airport.
Arden Hills-Shoreview, located between Interstate 694 and Interstate 35W, is a lakeside and suburban Shoreview neighborhood with wooded shorelines and a campus-like street grid. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Lexington Avenue & County Road E corridor, where low-slung retail, local eateries, and everyday services line wide sidewalks and parking courts. Housing leans toward mid-century ramblers, split-levels, and newer townhome pockets set among mature trees. Shoreview Community Center and the adjacent trails set an active, all-seasons rhythm. Island Lake County Park and Snail Lake Regional Park frame the area with boardwalks, beaches, and long loops for walking or cycling. Community pillars include the Shoreview Community Center, the Twin Cities German Immersion School, and the historic Mounds View area tied to the former Twin Cities Army Ammunition Plant site.
