About This Home

As of August 2025

Exquisite log home located just a few miles northeast of Ely on Fall Lake with direct water access to the Boundary Waters Wilderness Area! This 3 bedroom, 2 bath show place is gorgeous throughout, and offers great privacy and spectacular views! The great room, that houses the living room and kitchen, features a stunning floor to ceiling flat rock fireplace, cathedral ceilings with impressive log beams, and large floor to ceiling windows facing the lake! Also on the main floor is a formal dining room, 2 nice sized bedrooms, and a full bath. Upstairs is the large loft bedroom with a phenomenal private bath! The lower level has a large multi-purpose rec room that is mostly finished, a large, finished laundry room, new cedar sauna, and walk out stairs to the outside. The large deck on the front of the home has memorable elevated views of the lake including a beautiful state-owned island that eagles frequent daily! The 2 plus stall garage is insulated and heated. Other features include heated floors in the bathrooms, central air conditioning, back up automatic generator, a storage building, and scenic northwoods Boundary Waters type ledge rock outcrops. Nice path to the lake and dock. Fall Lake has excellent fishing, and is approx. 6 miles long, with the northern quarter of the lake located inside the wilderness area--but where you also can still use a boat and motor! From Fall Lake, there are 2 portages that take you north into Basswood Lake and the Canadian border! Home is being sold turn-key with great furnishings if desired.
