About This Home

As of October 2025

Spacious Country Living on 7.32 Acres located in the countryside of Carlton, Minnesota, this inviting three-bedroom, two-bath home offers the perfect blend of peaceful seclusion and modern comfort, all set upon an expansive 7.32-acre lot. Surrounded by gently rolling meadows and mature trees, this property provides ample space for outdoor activities, gardening, or simply soaking in the natural beauty of northern Minnesota. Step inside to discover a warm and welcoming interior, thoughtfully designed to accommodate both relaxation and entertaining. A living room greets you with great natural light streaming through large windows, framing picturesque views of the surrounding property. An open-concept layout seamlessly connects the living area to a well-appointed kitchen, complete with modern appliances, generous counter space, and ample cabinetry ideal for home chefs and casual meals alike. The adjoining dining area invites gatherings, from quiet breakfasts to festive celebrations. With 7.32 acres to call your own, this property is a haven for nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts with electric fencing for animals (hobby farm, anyone?!) and wild raspberries to pick and enjoy. Imagine morning walks through dew-kissed grass, afternoons spent gardening, or evenings gathered around a fire pit under the starlit sky. There is plenty of space for animals, playgrounds, or more. A detached garage or outbuilding provides extra storage for vehicles, tools, or recreational equipment. The expansive land offers endless possibilities when you raise chickens, plant fruit trees, or simply enjoy the peace and solitude of rural living. Located just minutes from downtown Carlton, you'll enjoy easy access to local shops, schools, cafes, and community events. The region is known for its friendly neighbors, vibrant outdoor recreation including hiking, fishing, and snowmobiling and proximity to Jay Cooke State Park. Duluth is a convenient drive away, offering additional amenities and access to Lake Superior.
