Local knowledge

Why Birchwood Village homes need a local read.

Birchwood Village is a White Bear Lake cottage community of 1900s summer homes, incorporated in 1921. We calibrate every Birchwood Village inspection to the conditions that actually drive defects here — not a generic national checklist.

Birchwood Village housing runs to small early-1900s summer cottages, heavily remodeled or replaced, alongside newer larger lake homes, across the shore lots on the south and east side of White Bear Lake and the older Lakewood Park and Orchard Homesites plats, on the sandy glacial shoreline of the south and east side of White Bear Lake.

Questions

Common questions.

Many Birchwood Village homes began as summer cottages. What does that mean for an inspection?
Birchwood grew from cottages built by St. Paul families, and streetcar service extended to White Bear Lake in 1904; the village was incorporated in 1921 out of the Lakewood Park and Orchard Homesites plats. The early plats had small lots and modest cottages, and many have since been remodeled or replaced. Water, gas and sewer arrived in the 1950s. We check for old cottage framing under later additions, uninsulated walls, small or damp basements and crawl spaces, and lot grading toward the lake. Washington County is EPA Radon Zone 1.
How long does an inspection take?
Plan on two to three hours for an average home; larger, older or multi-unit properties run longer because there is simply more to document.
