167 Bushaway Road, Wayzata, MN, USA
Excerpt from the History of Bushway Road and Its Neighborhood (1858-2009) by Irene Stemmer, of the Wayzata Heritage Preservation Board (HPB) as a means of preserving the history of the Bushaway Road and its neighborhood. 1952: The Sharpless House – 167 Bushaway Rd. This contemporary flat roofed rambler with a front walkout was built by Don and Portia Sharpless in the late ‘50s on one and one-half acres of the Amasa Richards, Lacher or Dayton property. At one time, it was part of the 320 acres of the George D. Dayton and George C. Andrews plan for the “Northland” suburb to Minneapolis. When it failed to materialize Dayton began selling off the lots. The house has had several owners: The Harold Hansons (1950s), Dean Weilands (1974), James Hovland (1979), Don & Jay Osborne (1988), and Hages (1999). The present owners purchased the house in 2004.
