YOUR NEXT PROJECT Built in 1895, this classic four-level home is rich with character, generous in space, and positioned to capture sweeping bluff-top views of Lake Superior and the Lower Harbor from the backyard. Offering 5 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, the home provides flexibility for a variety of living arrangements, whether you need guest space, home offices, creative studios, or room to grow. Two window-enclosed porches expand the living space and offer inviting spots to relax while enjoying the changing seasons.
