About This Home

As of September 2023

If you've been seeking solitude with all the comforts, it's finally here! This simply magical location is found literally at the end of the road. The property has both the main house and an adjacent cabin to expand into or rent. Both homes are perched on high ground overlooking a tributary of the Lester River and its abundant wildlife. The original house has been lovingly remodeled and expanded twice and most rooms have stunning views of the area surrounding the creek. The main level boasts two social spaces, kitchen, sunroom, and office which could easily become a main floor (4th) bedroom with its adjoining 3/4 bath w/low curb shower. A charming sauna is near the shower and has easy access to the outdoors to relax and cool down after use. Three bedrooms and a full bath with laundry are upstairs. As a bonus, there is an additional 1,000+ sq ft in the two bed, two bath "cabin" which is out of sight yet just steps away! This property is perfect for hosting gatherings of friends and family. Both structures are south facing, providing lots of sunshine to the interiors and beautiful views of creek and marsh. This idyllic location exudes peace, quiet and natural beauty yet is only 15 minutes from downtown Duluth.
