1575 Long Lake Boulevard, Orono, MN 55356

$1,495,000

1575 Long Lake Blvd was the first cabin built in the neighborhood you see today. The “Albee Addition” was an Apple Orchard long before lake cabins were built in the late 1930s. Edna Albee, the original owner, was from Norway. Many of the original Norwegian details remain intact in… Read More the fireplace mantle, main level bathroom mirror/bath tile work and dining room chandelier. The approach to the house is a step back in time to those original lake cottage days. This home has been meticulously maintained and improved over the years. Even with these changes over the years, the charm remains. From the moment you step inside and see the bright spaces with all the right details, you feel the care that all the stewards of this wonderful property have given this home. The additions are tasteful and right sized; the finishes are consistent and compliment the original and the spaces just work. What it may lack in modern layout convenience, it more than makes up for with its charm and setting. This property is truly unique and is as much about the setting and outdoor space as it is about the indoor spaces. It feels up north but then you remember, you are 7 minutes from Wayzata and 22 minutes from downtown Minneapolis. The property width, elevation and mature trees work together to create supreme lakeside privacy, and privacy between neighbors. With 250 feet of south facing shoreline on .6 acres, the expansive and unobstructed lake view captures spectacular sunrises and sunsets from inside the house - or from any of the numerous outdoor leisure areas. How many outdoor areas?? Well ... six distinct outdoor areas give you options for any mood or occasion. The back deck and dining deck are two very different feelings, one offering full sun, the other gives shade. The sandy beach is surrounded by rip rap and is a great spot to relax with your feet in the water or go for a swim. The lower patio offers a similar view to the upper deck, but the saltwater hot tub is a different option for relaxation. The secluded fire pit is tucked away from the house near the forested lowlands, surrounded by a flat stone patio with large stone benches and a peaceful view of the lake. The recessed fire pit includes built in drainage and a nearby hose attachment for safety. And finally, relaxing on the dock is the quintessential lakeside decompression zone. Of course, the lake side does offer a fairly flat area for yard games such, making that seven distinct outdoor areas! While you are outside, keep an eye out for Bald Eagles, turtles, hummingbirds, swans and loons. Mulberries, rhubarb and onion grass grows on the hill, next to the garage. Read Less
