You can watch the many moods of Lake Superior sitting at the kitchen table in this house on Ridge Road. It's only 4 blocks to hike, bike or drive to downtown Grand Marais. The three acres are both landscaped and partially left wild, with some mature spruce and pine throughout, an oak tree and lilac bush in the back yard, and lots of wildflowers to fill your vases. In the house there's a roomy combination of the den and living room with the two bedrooms on the west side. Large kitchen with a small breakfast nook, and the dinner table sits by the big picture window that looks out to the Big Lake. Zoning allows for a second residence on the 3 acres. Detached from the house is a 22'X28' two car garage with side entry door. Driveway is shared with nice neighbors whose pond is part of the lovely view.
