Some homes don’t just sit on land—they belong to it.
Just north of Stillwater, nestled in the rolling woods near the St. Croix River, sits a home that feels more like a storybook retreat than a typical real estate listing. This property is a place where the craftsmanship of Scandinavian design meets the wild beauty of 13 private acres.
Photographing this home, I found myself drawn to its quiet elegance—the way the light filters through the great room, the intricate carvings in the wood, the centuries-old influence of Nordic architecture woven into every detail.
And then there are the hidden treasures: A traditional Swedish Stuga tucked into the landscape, a guest cottage that feels like a step into another time. A Pottery Barn—not the store, but a real working artist’s space! Every inch of this property invites creativity, reflection, and a slower way of living.
And if you ever feel the need to wander, the St. Croix River is just minutes away, offering miles of water, cliffs, and trails—a natural extension of the peace found here.
This isn’t just a home. It’s a place to breathe, to create, to settle into the rhythm of the land.
