amaze you from the stunning sunrises to dolphins, seals and other sea life sporting in the waters around the island. Go salmon fishing off your own dock and find world renowned scuba locations minutes from your doorstep. Densely covered with pine,

cedar, arbutus and oak trees, the island has been improved with a log construction family retreat that features four bedrooms, five baths, a games room and a two-car garage. The home overlooks the island’s large, south-facing beach area and a deep-water docking facility with a capacity for three or four boats. As well, the property includes a detached one-bedroom caretaker’s home situated above his and her separate washrooms with showers. But while this gorgeous island home offers a truly

beautiful getaway, it is anything but remote from all the comfort and convenience of modern living.

As well, you are only a 15-minute boat jaunt to float plane service that will take you to other Vancouver Island locations and the Mainland, several top-notch golf courses, yacht clubs plus all the big

city services and amenities you need. Owning a private island is unique and may be somewhat limited to the select few: Just like you.

Artist bundles rocks, wood, creativity into sale KIM PALMER STAR TRIBUNE (MINNEAPOLIS)

Lauri Svedberg talks about the addition she had made to add more light to this room in her Minneapolis home in May. [MINNEAPOLIS STAR TRIBUNE/TNS]

“There are no comps,” Svedberg said, because there are no comparable properties. And the standard advice, to repaint in neutral colors, wouldn’t turn Svedberg’s house into a plain-vanilla listing. “I don’t think this place would look good painted white,” she said. ’You couldn’t just paint it white and have it look like an uber-modern Ikea house.” It’s going to take a special buyer, said listing agent Michael Gacek of Edina Realty, who said he planned to use social media, location marketing and a grass-

Integrity Dedication Professional Accountable

“I couldn’t just go to Menard’s,” she recalled. “I thought, ’I betcha I could build a window.’” So she did, using rows of Mason jars framed by even more rocks, to create a Casablanca-meets-Flintstones effect. Now after 35 years of living and creating in her residential gallery, the retired art and philosophy teacher is moving on, to a trailer in Palm Springs, where the desert climate is kinder to her arthritis. But how do you price, market and sell a home that’s also an art installation?

One end of the living room has a solarium window that floods the space with light. Svedberg also added a large studio, a second-floor octagonal room with windows all around, offering a panoramic view of the neighborhood. “It’s beautiful,” said Gacek, although the studio’s 764 square feet can’t be included in the home’s square footage because the room isn’t heated. (Officially, not counting the studio, the home offers 1,078 finished square feet.) It includes one bedroom and one bathroom, where Svedberg added a rock-wall shower beneath a skylight. Svedberg loves the home she’s created. “If I could magically zap this down to Palm Springs, that would be ideal,” she said. But she’s a realist. She knows that her masterpiece could become someone else’s do-over. The next owner might dismantle her work — or even tear the house down and start fresh. “The logical part of me says, ’Whoever buys it has the right to do with it what they want,’” she said. “But I would be a little nostalgic. My fondest hope is that someone will buy it and keep it alive. If I walked in here in five years and it was all pink and hearts and flowers, I’d probably throw up.”

MINNEAPOLIS — The first thing you notice are the rocks — thousands of them — forming intricate mosaics on walls, doors and even stair risers. “The house is highly textured,” said artist/homeowner Lauri Svedberg, in an understatement if there ever was one. “Often I’d see a material, fall in love, and think, ’I’ve got to use it.’” Armed with boundless energy, creativity and a glue gun, Svedberg transformed her “average box” of a house into a fantasyland that could serve as the backdrop for a music video, theatrical production or a really cool party. Rocks aren’t her only medium. She painted one room to evoke a birch forest, and another to suggest a canopied tent of leopard, zebra and cheetah-print draperies. “I love animals so much; I love the patterns of their fur,” she said. She’s proudest of her mosaic doorway arch made of semiprecious stones, minerals and colorful rocks collected during her travels. The arch frames a view of an eye-catching window — made of 77 circles of glass. When Svedberg had to replace a window in the 1912 house, she discovered that new windows wouldn’t fit the opening.

roots campaign to reach a targeted audience. “I’ve sold some interesting homes in my day, and this is high on the list, as far as interesting,” he said. “It’s definitely a head-turner — well-known in the neighborhood and in the artist community. It’s over the top, and I’m going to sell over the top.” The home’s location in the Waite Park neighborhood of northeast Minneapolis is a plus. Northeast was recently named “Best Arts District” in the country, according to a USA Today readers’ poll; that corner of the city is already a destination for artisans, hipsters and others with a taste for and offbeat. “Northeast is known for arts and taprooms right now,” noted Gacek, a lifelong resident. “I can see some of the people I’ve met in the ’hood living there. This is the epitome of an artsy Nordeast house — this is art to the max.” Although Svedberg’s rock-encrusted decor is eccentric, the property has many mainstream amenities, Gacek noted. It sits on a generous corner lot that Svedberg has landscaped into terraced gardens of low-maintenance perennials and rustic cobblestones salvaged from old streets of Minneapolis. There’s also an attached tuck-under garage, a coveted feature in older urban neighborhoods.
