About This Home
As of October 2024Heading into the Northwoods along the Gunflint Tr is to unwind into wild space, move into less static, get back to basics. Here is a lakeland wilderness, expansive, gem locations along the way. Tucker Lake is a remoteness of beauty, peace and pure, cool waters. The walleye fishing is quite nice. This country is so wild that a third of Tucker is in the BWCA! Place a class act log home in this setting and dreams come true. 2.75 acres, 364’ of frontage, second property to the end of the road – privacy abounds. 2 bedrooms, full bath, spacious kitchen. Living room soars open with cathedral ceiling and log beams. Woodstove crackles with warmth and old-time vibes. Sprawling deck is partially open and partially screened accommodating the seasons with great boreal forest and lake views. Bedrooms are spacious enough for the gang or one becomes the office – fiber optic prrs along for any digital needs. The shore is ledgerock and healthy forest, and that’s how all of Tucker lays out: ancient granite outcrops from the basement of time, boulders placed just so from the last glaciers, virgin forest. Predominantly surrounded by public land, Tucker is wild and the lake is only served by a private HOA boat ramp. Public use is minimal, from a portage heading to Iron Lake. Seller says the furnishings can be included, so no worries on hauling stuff up. Year round, filtered lake water system is an elegant way to get water into a home in lake country. Black Spruce Trail: the name rekindles in us a connection to forest, a place untrammeled. And here along the road runs a large, black spruce forest with emerald moss and long tall spruce that click in the wind, are Seussian in their various tufts topping each off. Trail Center is close for a quick bite. Grand Marais is down the trail for re-provisioning or getting in some entertainment and camaraderie. Back at the cabin, split wood, read Sig Olson, varnish the snowshoes, study warblers in spring, learn about ferns and fungi, nap, teach a grandchild, bake blueberry muffins form the day’s pickings, pull out maps to plan… as previously mentioned, back to basics. Or, just sit, stare, empty the mind, fill up the soul. That’s how this place is, realigns the life force, opens a person up.
