Built for the same family that commissioned the Lindholm Gas Station (also known as the Broadacre City Gas Station) in Cloquet, the R.W. Lindholm residence is also known as Mäntylä (Finnish for "house among the pines). The L-shaped layout has an enclosed carport, forming a T shape. The house is situated to maximize the setting sun in the living and sleeping quarters, and to have the living quarters shaded at noon during the summer. The Lindholms hired an Iowan cabinetmaker to do the interior work to save money.
The home was completed in 1952, and has been in the family since its construction. The Lindholm residence is currently for sale
