About This Home

As of February 2023

Observation Hill is home to this incredibly spectacular charmer with unbelievable views of Lake Superior, the Lift Bridge, Park Point, the Bay & Downtown Duluth. The home features beautiful natural woodwork throughout, including sparkling hardwood floors, a wood stove that allows you keep that thermostat down in the winter, an open porch with panoramic views, & an addition off the kitchen with fur wood trim & Pergo floors. Breathtaking views can be enjoyed in almost every room in the house! Basement features walk-out “Auntie Em” doors, bluestone foundation, cement wash basin & sound mechanicals. The incredibly quiet, dead-end-like location allows for wonderful entertaining in the green & lush back yard, which features a beautiful tamarack, fruit trees, trails and a view similar to nearby Enger Park! The location, although private, is close to everything including the Superior Hiking Trail and Duluth Traverse Mtn Biking Trails. Enjoy the history, sunsets, moon rises, ship watching, 2 off-street parking spots, gardens, character, convenient location, & of course - THE VIEW!
