Tucked away just minutes from Duluth, this 40-acre retreat is truly a surprise gem on over 40 acres! As you turn up the Asphalt not gravel tree-lined driveway and wind your way up the gentle hill, you immediately relax! Sitting on top of the hill is this special home. So perfectly placed that it looks like it is meant to be here! This authentic log home welcomes you with warmth and character at every turn. The sellers were amazing stewards of this home and are passing it on to you! This is a rare find! Inside, the soaring ceilings and lofted design create an open, airy feel, while the stunning floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace anchors the living space and invites you to slow down and stay awhile. Natural wood surrounds you, bringing the beauty of the outdoors in. With even peeks of Lake Superior! ( trim some trees and you could have more)! The kitchen is simply charming, featuring distinctive red tiled countertops that add personality and vintage flair while remaining functional for everyday living or entertaining. Enjoy three bedrooms and a lofted upper level primary suite! Walk in and the main level bedroom can be your office with a bath conveniently located nearby. Upstairs, the primary loft is your sanctuary- the windows offer views of the immensity of nature, trees , Lake Superior and the stunning Northland we live in! Privacy is yours here! The lower level has been remodeled & refreshed, offering a bright, welcoming space complete with a second woodstove in the rec room, another comfortable bedroom with a bath nearby and a walkout to the peaceful acreage beyond. 40.56 acres are YOURS! Again, this is a rare find: acreage, a move-in-ready log home, and 2 oversized storage garages. Paradise is yours! Love it as much as the sellers have for years to come!
