Legal description of the parcel. Part of Government Lot 3, Section 3, Township 2 9. Range 23, described as follows: Commencing on the East and West 1/4 section line, 438 feet East of center of said section; thence Northerly and parallel with the North and South 1/4 section line, 1641.5 feet to point of beginning; thence South 34 degrees 16' East 62.76 feet; thence North 15 degrees 24' East 270 feet more or less to the shore line of Lake Josephine; thence Northwesterly along shoreline 163 feet more or less to a point 438 feet East of the North and South 1/4 section line; Thence Southerly 325 feet more or less to Point of beginning; except a strip of land along the southern most line thereof taken for Josephine Road, in Ramsey County, Minnesota.

There is also an existing bituminous drive and the remains of the house foundation. The topography is best described as terraced, from a high point of 902.0 at the southwest corner abutting 17•3 feet elevation of 884.7 feet. The average elevation is approximately h a 3 feet. Slopes to a shoreline widely ranging from 25% along the road and Lakeshore, to 6 to 10% on the terraces, to 2% between the terraces. The highest known water elevation is 885.7 and the estimated water elevation resulting from a 100 year 24 hour rainfall event is 886.0 (source: Ramsey County Engineering Dept.). The surface elevation of the lake at the time of survey was 884.7 feet. Soil test borings indicate that the soils are fill and topsoil overlaying coarse alluvial sandy soils. The water table was encountered at elevation 886.0 and flows toward the lake. Bedrock was not encountered by borings to elevation 875.0. The proposed residence structure.
