diggPlaces to Call Home
The 21st century lifestyle is focused around a renewed sense of community, walkable neighborhoods, and leisure activities close to home. Developers are responding. Urban living today means home is a condominium with on-site recreation facilities, fitness rooms, and shops and restaurants on the ground floor. Residential neighborhoods increasingly come complete with extensive private community centers, pools, parks, trail systems, and neighborhood activities directors. This is the good life, and the newest places to call home offer a big slice of it.

What is distinctive about this neighborhood?
The neighborhood’s catchphrase is “Connected by Design”—a logical statement, considering Spirit’s 33-mile trail network among lakes, ponds, wetlands, and 113 acres of open space. The trails connect a new Lakeville city park to homes and the clubhouse. The clubhouse is a $4.5 million renovation of the distinctly profiled Brandtjen dairy barn. Today, it’s chock full of state-of-the-art amenities, including a party room with full kitchen; a game room with a billiards table, electronic darts, and large-screen TV; 24-hour fitness center; wireless Internet access; and outdoor pools.
