About This Home

Set on a beautifully established double corner lot, this Lakeside home offers over 2900 square feet, 4+ bedrooms, two baths, and a two-car detached garage. Its distinctive Queen Anne-style roofline, dormer windows, wide front walk, and private, set-back entrance create a sense of elegance before you even step inside. Generous windows fill the home with natural light, while spacious rooms, a large kitchen, narrow hardwood floors, wide baseboards, and both front and back staircases reflect the craftsmanship and character of another era. Four second-floor rooms enjoy seasonal views of Lake Superior, and the expansive open third floor offers even more possibilities for living, working, creating, or gathering. The grounds are every bit as remarkable as the home. Many varieties of trees and shrubs including White Pine and Norway Pine, established wildflowers, and a mix of sunny and shaded spaces create a private garden setting with room for a master gardener to make it their own. Towering spruce trees add privacy, while the east-facing side yard feels wonderfully secluded. Dating to the neighborhood’s earliest era, this home is historically associated with Frank and Alison Crassweller. Frank was a prominent Duluth attorney and civic leader. And then there is the story you will love telling: according to published local histories, acclaimed Minnesota author Sinclair Lewis visited the Crassweller home to play chess with Frank while Lewis was living in Duluth. Lovingly owned by the same owner for 40 years, the home also offers meaningful updates, including exterior painting in 2023, a water heater in 2020, and a fiberglass sewer line installed in 2018. Walk to the Lakewalk and Lakeside’s shops, cafés, and everyday conveniences, with Brighton Beach and North Shore Drive just 13 blocks away. This is more than a beautiful home. It is a distinctive piece of Lakeside history, ready for its next chapter.
