Lake Minnetonka Home!

The former John S. Pillsbury Sr. house on the tip of Bracketts Point in Orono on Lake Minnetonka is for sale, only the second time the expansive lakefront house has been on the market since 1918. Is anybody worried about who might buy it -- namely, some big developer who will tear down the estate the Pillsbury family called Southways and build other housing there?

James Jundt, a former hedge fund manager, and his wife, Joann, have put it up for sale for $53.5 million. They bought it when Pillsbury's widow, Eleanor Pillsbury, whose friends called her Juty, died in 1991. They have staged any number of events there, including a Republican fundraiser for congressional candidate Michelle Bachmann that lured President Bush in 2006. The Jundts say they are moving to Arizona.

The Pillsburys also entertained in style there for many charities and at least once for the present King Harald of Norway when was still the crown prince.

Saw the ad in Arch Digest.  Our chuch is located on propety that is also home to a Harrie Lindeberg designed property. The houses he desgined are truly wonderful.

 We hosted the Knoxville Heritage group last spirng and were pleased to have Mark Alan Hewitt as the guest speaker.  Any potential buy would gain great knowledge about Lindeberg and his work from Mark.

Good Luck in selling  the house to a family!
