Enjoy resort style living in the city in this newer built, custom, walkout rambler on Lake Johnanna, a fully recreational lake, great for boating, fishing, and all the on-the-water activities. The home is set on a spacious lot with expansive, sunrise views over the lake, in a quiet, walkable neighborhood within the award-winning Mounds View School district. With significant capital invested into improvements since acquisition, both the land and the home have been optimized for entertainment, use and enjoyment by the current owners.

THE HOME:

Built in 2013 and since updated, this custom, walkout rambler is loaded with high-end finishes, updates, and features throughout. The main floor is spacious, bright and open with hickory hardwood floors, a gas fireplace in the living room, vaulted ceilings and a wall of windows facing east which provide expansive views of Lake Johanna and flood the home with natural daylight. The chef’s kitchen, which is open to the dining and living rooms, features a Viking double oven with 6-burners plus a griddle, custom fanhood which vents to the exterior, an oversized refrigerator, new dishwasher, pantry, a huge granite topped island and a wet bar. A maintenance free deck is located just off the kitchen. The mudroom, which is located behind the kitchen, connects to the oversized, heated 4-car garage and features a closet and plenty of room for people to take off their shoes and coats. The main floor laundry room features a large sink, folding counter, extra shelving and side-by-side Samsung frontload washer and dryer. The primary ensuite is generously sized with a walk-in shower, dual vanities and a massive walk-in closet. The 2nd of 4 bedrooms is also located on the main floor and can be utilized as a flex space. The intelligently designed lower-level walks out to a massive paver patio and features a spacious family room with a wet bar, an easily accessible bathroom to serve the indoor and outdoor common areas, a huge storage room and a utility room. The 2 kids’ rooms on the lower level are served by a jack and jill bathroom with dual vanities and a separate shower/toilet room.

THE LOT & LAKEFRONT:

The spacious, pristinely landscaped, and mostly flat lot features 87 feet of waterfrontage on Lake Johanna, in award winning Mounds View Schools. The current owners made significant landscaping improvements to optimize the useability of the outdoor space including enlargement of the primary driveway, improvement of the area leading to the front entry, the addition of a garden, boulder retaining walls with a golfcart path for easy access to the lake, a hot tub and a gazebo. The gazebo area is connected to water and was designed to accommodate a more substantial structure such as a future boathouse style building. The long supplemental driveway on the north side of the property provides plenty of extra parking/storage and it is hidden from the rest of the property by a row of lilac bushes. The swimming area off the dock is sandy and clear with weed control provided by the Lake Johanna Improvement Society. The neighborhood is quiet, maturely wooded, connected to miles of walking/biking trails, and there are several parks within walking distance. Enjoy quick and easy access to nearly unlimited shopping and premier dining options which are only a bike ride away. Reach 35W, 694 and Snelling in just 3 minutes by car, and only 6 minutes to 36. Minneapolis and St. Paul are only a 15-minute drive and MSP Airport is reachable in 20 minutes.
