About this home

RURAL COOK One of a kind offering only 19 miles from Downtown Cook or 37 miles from Downtown Hibbing. The home features a metal roof, some new windows, enclosed finished side porch with its own electric baseboard heat and an enclosed front porch. There is a cozy breakfast nook off the kitchen, large living room, large family room leading to two bedrooms and bath. The lower level is unfinished. Plenty of room for your toys in the detached 26x42 garage. There are a number of outbuildings in good repair and did I mention a Compliant septic system installed in 2019? This parcel has many walking paths throughout the property and the South East corner touches State Lands. Interior needs some finishing but there is plenty of potential here!
