11828 44th Street Lane

Experience life in the heart of the Fields of St. Croix, widely regarded as one of Minnesota’s earliest and most thoughtfully designed conservation communities. Created with long-term stewardship in mind, more than half of the original acreage was preserved as permanent open space protected by conservation easements. Miles of trails wind through restored prairie lands surrounding Lake Getchel, complemented by carefully planned streetscapes and timeless architectural design. A beautifully restored Civil War–era barn serves as a cherished gathering place for neighborhood events and private celebrations—an enduring symbol of the community’s commitment to history, land, and connection. Set on nearly an acre and bordering protected conservation land, 11828 44th Street Lane offers views of the lake, frequent wildlife sightings, and the iconic barn across the water. A sunny southwest-facing front porch welcomes friends and family, while refreshed garden beds are ready for spring planting and supported by a newly installed sprinkler system. Inside, the home is filled with natural light, featuring large windows, tall ceilings, and open, gracious living spaces designed for both everyday comfort and entertaining. The walkout lower level opens to a private backyard with patio space and room for a hot tub—wiring already in place. The entire upper level is dedicated to the private owner’s retreat, including a spacious bedroom, expansive dressing room, luxurious bath, and a flexible bonus space ideal for a nursery, yoga studio, or media room. The main level offers excellent work-from-home flexibility, along with a dedicated music room or library. Recent updates include a new HVAC system, new laundry appliances, fresh paint in select rooms, new carpeting, and a generous workout space with impact-absorbing rubber flooring. Homes in Fields of St. Croix rarely offer this combination of setting, privacy, and thoughtful updates. Don’t miss the opportunity to secure a home in one of the St. Croix Valley’s most distinctive and enduring communities.
