We are best known for providing the highest quality interior finishes and installations, but sometimes we take a break for a breath of fresh air! This summer that meant designing and landscaping a 5 acre Lake Minnetonka teardown-rebuild sight from dirt! Our team moved over 1,000 tons of materials, including 108 tons of limestone from downtown Minneapolis bedrock that was painstakingly drilled, split, and chiseled to size, onsite by our craftstmen. We also spent months installing water mitigation systems to protect neighborhing properties and most importanlty the water quality of Lake Minnetonka. In the process we created some breath taking outdoor living spaces!
This property is open during the Artisan home tour Friday -Sunday Noon - 6:00pm,. through the 22nd. Look for Artisan home tour signs, #4 at 1000 Tonkawa Rd. Orono, MN 55356.
Full access guided tours of the grounds are available by appointment only during the next 3 weeks. Please call me, Ken, directly at 952-288-0088 to schedule your tour.
