18240 Shavers Lane

Woodland, MN55391

This modern oasis is the result of a complete reimagining of a 1960's walkout rambler set on a serene hilltop overlooking the serenity of Shavers Lake. With two acres and the mature forests of Woodland surrounding three sides of the property, privacy is what you expect in this setting. The long driveway approach wraps around the West side of the house to give visitors the full view of the property on arrival. Upon approach to the front porch, you see this is not your typical "update" renovation. The renovation by Aspect Design Build (in 2020) shows their visionary approach for transforming spaces. The interior spaces were completely reimagined into a modern layout by removing walls and ceilings to reorient the room locations to focus on the beautiful pool, yard and lake view. The warmth of the materials take inspiration from mid-century design to soften the modern design language, including the concept of large windows framing nature's ever evolving beauty as living art. The interior spaces echo the exterior with a contrast of natural wood and the soft look of polished concrete details against white walls to give depth and character to the large open space of the main level. The interplay between the exposed original ceilings and the subtle vaults define the different spaces as you enter the home and move through the home. The East end of the main level is the functional heartbeat of the home with large kitchen island surrounded lower cabinets to allow an airy, unobstructed feel. The kitchen scullery allows ample pantry storage and serves as an out of sight prep area. Folding windows on the East wall open directly from the kitchen counter to the vaulted cedar screen porch for warm weather entertaining. A primary suite at the West end of the home promotes rest and relaxation. Highlighted by great views from the large windows, the built in bookshelves sit at an angle for an uncluttered view while a wood slat floating wall separates the sleeping area the spa like bathroom and closet / laundry area. Artisan made tiles give a soft touch while a simple central soaking tub anchors the bathroom space. Along with the full house renovation, the designers and builder incorporated two small additions to improve the space and functionality of the main entry points. The main outcome is the generous foyer and the mudroom areas. This gave space for a charming guest suite on the main level along with a separate powder room and a one of a kind office / work space, complete with a device charging area. The heated three car garage includes extra space at the front and both sides for storage racks, shelves and cabinets. The walkout lower level features a lower family room with a big window overlooking the back yard and pool area. A dry bar give convenient space for snacks and drinks at the pool. A built in double sided couch, flanked by built in shelves, delineates between the family room and the amusement room (currently used for ping pong and exercise equipment). The three lower level bedrooms all have their own unique features. One includes it's own en-suite 3/4 bath while the other two share a bathroom, each with their own sink. One of the bedrooms includes a small reading or play nook under the stairs while the other gets pool / back yard views. From the pool, there is a direct entrance into a changing area and separate 1/2 bath to help keep the lower level dry! The landscaping, pool and pool equipment were all new with the 2020 renovation. The classic garden house in NE corner is built on a foundation with a crawl space; floors and walls appear to be stable and there was running water and electricity at one point. NOTES: 1- Interior photos are from builder shoot and don't show all the rooms as a normal real estate shoot would. Due to scheduling, some rooms and angles are not in the photos. 2- The current driveway will be replaced by the owner.
