Living With Passion in Virginia

Mendocino, California: Operating the MacCallum House Is this story about YOU?

By Elyse Umaluf-Garneau For forty years, Virginia’s state tagline has been “Virginia is For Lovers.” Its department of tourism recently updated that slogan to include “Live Passionately.” The state’s vast resources make that pretty easy.

In 2007, as a 30-year veteran of the global economy, I exited my last business venture. The timing was my best yet—and a testament to the truth that mostly the hard working get lucky. For the last 18 months my partner and I have eaten from east to west, read through a library, and in the process I’ve added several rings to my redwood tree.

ADVERTISING ASSOCIATES Larissa Balko Randall Metting Alex Beattie Linda Pignataro Jeff CampBell Veronica T. Powers Martin Jennings

Dear Reader, As we move in to the latter half 2009, there is no need to fret about “market conditions” or the “bottom.” The tide is beginning to shift, while all indicators point to an inevitable economic uptick. Indicators abound to a savvy investor or second or third home buyer. The time to buy or invest in luxury real estate is today. The price tag of these properties are now reasonable as the market continues to restore itself and resemble that of “pre-bubble” conditions. Inside our Virginia and Lakeside Living issue, you will find many of the world’s most prestigious lakeside addresses—from the “eye of the needle,” also known as Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, to one of South Florida’s most relaxing gated communities: Snapper Creek Lakes. Time and time again, the market bears a price for just about anything that can be commoditized. The market has reflected this at times—certainly in recent memory. Today, the luxury market is beginning to reflect what homeownership was intended to be: a place to live and spend time with your family. We welcome you to our June 2009 duPont REGISTRY A Buyers Gallery of Fine Homes®.

LAKEFRONT LIVING

Treasured Shores By Elyse Umlauf-Garneau As sprawl has made a steady march across the American landscape, unspoiled nature has become rarer and, among some, greatly treasured. In coastal areas like Florida and California, people find the beaches and oceans almost at their doorsteps and they can enjoy them year-round. But those in northern areas sometimes have to work a little harder to find the serenity that comes with gazing at and frolicking in water.

The luckiest among us live that life year-round. That sense of escape that a lake property delivers is likely one reason lakefront luxury properties, including those in Idaho and Minnesota, remain in demand, even during times when the economic waters are a bit rough. Wade Hanson, a real estate practitioner with Weichert Realty in Minnesota likens lakefront living to antique cars—rare, beautiful and something that can no longer be manufactured. I

When people find a favorite spot, they tend to get hooked for life. That is one reason lakefront property has such an emotional tug. For some, the sparkling water elicits memories of a carefree existence and childhood summers spent streaking to the water and taking a dip into sometimes bracing waters, toasting marshmallows under the stars and scaring younger siblings with ghost stories. The adult version of such vacations varies slightly. It’s a week or two free of bumperto-bumper traffic, a way from the stream of petty work annoyances and the barrage of constantly chirping technology. Depending on a person’s inclinations, that week or two can be spent in a remote wooded setting, where there’s nothing to see besides shimmering water and local wildlife in their native habitats. For others, nirvana stems from getting a taste of that raw nature, but combining the experience with a few rounds of golf at a championship course and a bit of fine dining and culture in town during the evening.

COEUR D’ALENE, IDAHO

Triple Happiness By Elyse Umlauf-Garneau

W

ater views. Golf views. Mountain views. Talk about triple happiness. That winning trio is available from a condominium in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho.

The 5,400-square-foot penthouse sits in a gated community just five minutes from downtown Coeur d’Alene. Yet the enclave, according to John Beutler of Century 21 Beutler & Associates in Coeur d’Alene, delivers residents to serenity and luxury in an area whose beauty has often been compared to Lake Tahoe.

Lake Coeur d’Alene has 126 miles of shoreline and offers vast water sports, including fishing, boating water skiing and swimming, and it’s the site for one leg of an annual Ironman triathlon. Golf, fly fishing, mountain biking, and snowmobiling are among the other favorite local pastimes. Beutler, who has three decades of experience in real estate, considers the Coeur D’Alene Terraces penthouse a rare gem. The three-bedroom unit departs from traditional condo design in that it is 110-feet wide and features high ceilings. In addition, the layout of the property takes full advantage of its venue and views. Retractable sliding glass doors, for instance, blur the lines between the indoors and outdoors, and they open to an approximately 1,000-square foot outdoor terrace. Included with the unit is a boat slip in the private marina. The full-service building includes a concierge, conference facilities and a state-of-the-art fitness center. Residents also have access to the amenities of the Coeur d’Alene Resort and receive lifetime memberships to the resort’s golf course, which features the world-famous floating island green. Though the property offers a true getaway, residents aren’t marooned in the back woods. Downtown Coeur d’Alene, for example, offers an array of shopping, dining and arts and special events. And Spokane, Washington, less than one hour away, provides urban diversions. “Even though I’ve lived here for 30 years, I’m still awed by how much there is to do. It’s a winter and summer playground,” comments Beutler.

WALKER, MINNESOTA

Preserving Nature, Enjoying Exclusive Tranquility By Britta Reque-Dragicevic

D

own a winding lane lined with ancient oaks, on the shore of one of Minnesota’s largest and most privately-owned lakes, sits the gated community of Forest Royale. Designed to honor the property’s long-standing resort history, the land was converted to estatesized lots that preserve open space, wild flowers, groves of towering hardwoods and provide homeowners with sweeping sunset views of Leech Lake. The developer, George Vukobratovich, of Naples, Florida, spent his childhood vacationing at the resort which boasted some of the

oldest log cabins on the lake. When the property came on the market a few years ago, he purchased it with the intent to preserve the sixty acres of wild beauty and rolling shoreline. Today, the original cabins are gone; replaced with private lakeside estates. Only a handful of homes sprawl across each two plus acre lot and honor the natural environment with their hand-hewn log or timber-frame construction. A private harbor provides shelter and easy access to Leech Lake’s more than 112,000 acres of clear water. Nearby, several islands offer boaters a leisurely afternoon’s picnic and private escape. The homeowners of Forest Royale celebrate the privacy, quiet and exclusivity of owning some of the most premier property available on the lake’s coveted south shore. For those interested in pursuing a Forest Royale lifestyle, the community offers undeveloped lots as well as new construction homes. One available property includes a hand-scribed white pine log home complete with full guest suite, window walls facing the lake, hardwood throughout, rustic yet elegant appointments, and offers a distinctive buyer 390 feet of private shoreline. Forest Royale is the only gated community on the lake. It is located within easy boating and driving access to the nearby community of Walker, Minnesota, and nestled within convenient reach of fine dining, shopping, casino entertainment, private airports and golfing facilities.

“What makes this community unique is the remoteness and the rarity of a gated community on a lake that offers total privacy and escape,” comments Wade Hanson, the broker representing Forest Royale.

MENDOCINO, CALIFORNIA

Is this story about You?

I

bar and inn—The MacCallum House—in the romantic epicenter of artistic Northern California, the seaside town of Mendocino. The whole idea seemed so absurd for a few moments, but I tell you, it has really grown on me: operating, improving, fine tuning an online advertising campaign, a tax shelter, a functioning retirement in a private, romantic coastal village with the quintessential clientele. Definitely worthy of closer inspection!

So, here we are on another adventure—and one that I’m increasingly excited about: Running an historic, established restaurant,

Patti was the original instigator, “Perfect for both of us! I can write my book, hike the coast and headlands, read in the afternoons with the ocean and birds in the background, garden year-round, and meet interesting people from San Francisco; and you can do your thing—oversee an experienced management team, grow a business between trips and California sojourns… what could be better? Of all people, you can improve the business…in any economy.”

n 2007, as a 30 year veteran of the global economy, I exited my last business venture. The timing was my best yet—and a testament to the truth that mostly the hard working get lucky. For the last 18 months my partner and I have eaten from east to west, read through a library, and in the process I’ve added several rings to my redwood tree. But I must tell you, I’m a little bored. I miss running the show. But I’ve started many businesses and am certain that at my age, and success, I lack the energy and financial drive to do it again from the ground up.

As it turns out the bottom line is already very good, five-year income growth during a major capital improvement campaign—remodeled rooms, new landscaping, a growing special events business, and a profitable sister business: wine-tours to nearby blossoming Anderson Valley. What really caught my eye was the property: the location and structure turn out to be the flagship property of Mendocino. The property and land itself is worth close to $5 million and I get the business and lifestyle for a song! The MacCallum House Inn & Restaurant is for sale.

Living With Passion in Virginia By Elyse Umlauf-Garneau For forty years, Virginia’s state tagline has been “Virginia is For Lovers.” Its department of tourism recently updated that slogan to include “Live Passionately.” The state’s vast resources make that pretty easy. First off, the landscape is so varied. In the same state, you find mountains, beaches and skiing.

Moreover, as Bryan Robinson comments, “Today’s economy is presenting opportunities for buyers that we may never see again.” Robinson is marketing the Shores
