About This Home

As of September 2025

This one-of-a-kind, custom-built 3-bedroom, 4-bath home sits on five private acres in the Kenwood neighborhood of Duluth, offering a rare blend of seclusion and convenience, just ten minutes from the medical district, universities, shopping, and the Lakewalk. Designed with both comfort and functionality in mind, the home has been thoughtfully updated over the years with high-end finishes and modern amenities. Updates include a new gas boiler (2008), roof (2011), screen porch, balcony, and deck (2012), full window replacement (2012–2019), a beautifully remodeled second-floor bathroom (2017), new electric water heater (2018), and a major main-floor renovation in 2019, which added a spacious secondary primary suite with a private 3⁄4 bath, walk-in closet, in-floor heat, and its own laundry. That same renovation also included a second 3⁄4 bath on the main level, updated kitchen with quartz countertops, new wood flooring, three-zone mini split system, seamless steel siding, and new interior and exterior doors. In 2024, a brand-new 3⁄4 bathroom was added to the finished lower level. The home's interior offers a warm and inviting layout with expansive south-facing windows that showcase incredible natural views. A chef’s kitchen features a large center island and custom cabinetry with excellent flow into the dining area, screen porch, and tigerwood deck, perfect for entertaining. The cathedral-ceiling living room centers around a two-sided gas fireplace, while the lower level includes a cozy family room with a wood-burning fireplace, sauna, second laundry area, and plenty of storage. Upstairs, you’ll find a full bath, the primary bedroom with private tigerwood deck, and an additional bedroom, offering flexibility for families or guests. With two spacious primary suites, one on the main level and one upstairs, this home provides privacy and comfort throughout. Outside, enjoy private wooded trails that connect to public trail systems, beautifully landscaped gardens, multiple outdoor seating areas, an attached two-car garage with polyurea flooring, a custom storage shed, and a one-stall carport ideal for additional parking or boat storage. This truly exceptional property offers a rare combination of privacy, natural beauty, and quality craftsmanship.
