Discover "The Hideout": The Future of Luxury Garage Condos in St. Michael, MN
Are you a discerning collector, a small business owner, or an enthusiast seeking more than traditional storage? The Hideout Supermax Suites, located at 5000 Odessa Avenue NE in St. Michael, Minnesota, represents the premier luxury garage condo development in the northwest Twin Cities metro area. These high-security, customizable storage condos are designed to serve those seeking premium lifestyle storage solutions and a unique ownership opportunity in Wright County.
A Prime Location in a Thriving Market
The Hideout occupies a strategic spot in St. Michael, Minnesota, offering convenient access to Rogers, Otsego, and Albertville. This placement is approximately 30–40 minutes from downtown Minneapolis, providing privacy and security while remaining close to everyday essentials.
Built to Last: Superior Construction and Security
What truly sets The Hideout apart is its robust construction quality. The development utilizes a single wythe reinforced concrete masonry technique—a superior concrete block construction method that offers significant advantages over standard wood frame or pole barn structures.
These superior building features include:
- Exceptional strength and security with complete concrete block walls and floors.
- Inherent fire-proof and noncombustible properties.
- Superior soundproofing and noise abatement between units.
- Outstanding weather resistance against extreme events.
- Long-term durability with minimal maintenance requirements.
Furthermore, all units are protected by 24/7 security systems and are built to code, featuring professional-grade HVAC systems and indoor sprinkler systems throughout.
Customizable Suites for Every Vision
The Hideout is built for flexibility, encouraging owners to create personalized spaces tailored to their exact needs. All units boast impressive core specifications designed for large vehicles and equipment:
- 25-foot ceilings providing exceptional vertical clearance.
- 14-foot overhead doors.
- Climate-controlled environments with heating and air conditioning.
- Reinforced concrete mezzanines ready to support lifestyle amenities.
Customization possibilities are vast, including:
Entertainment Spaces: Home theaters, custom bars/lounges, Chef's kitchens, game rooms, and simulators.
Business Applications: Professional office suites, workshop and fabrication spaces, inventory storage, and showroom displays.
Lifestyle Features: Full bathrooms with showers, laundry areas, and climate-controlled wine storage.
The development team, including Murphy & Co Design, showcased this potential through several model units. For instance, Unit D10, "The Harley" ($445,000), features a custom motorcycle-themed design with a 19x22 foot reinforced concrete mezzanine, a full entertainment area, and custom wood countertops. The most luxurious offering, "The K5" (Units D12 & D14), is a 3,874 square foot double unit priced at $1,700,000, which includes a full kitchen, three bathrooms, and a three-level car lift system.
Deeded Ownership and Investment Potential
Units at The Hideout are sold as deeded condominiums, offering owners full ownership rights, similar to traditional real estate. This structure provides significant advantages, including property appreciation potential, flexibility to transfer ownership, customization freedom, and potential tax benefits compared to commercial leases.
It is important to note that The Hideout maintains specific usage guidelines: units are strictly designated for storage and workspace use only, and residential occupancy is prohibited based on Wright County zoning regulations.
With units available across multiple price points—from $280,000 Shell Units (unfinished, customizable space) to Premium and Showcase units extending over $1.7 million—The Hideout provides a valuable investment opportunity in a market driven by demand for secure storage and flexible workspace.
