This beautiful 5 bedroom, 2 bath Lester Park home is located just steps from Amity Creek, Lester River, endless trails, the Lakewalk, Lake Superior, and all that the North Shore has to offer. The gorgeous turret offers storybook character, historic elegance, and amazing curb appeal. The front deck welcomes you as you enter into the enclosed and sunny front porch. You're immediately hit with hardwood floors and natural woodwork as you walk into the sitting room/parlour area. The living room features tons of natural light and a decorative antique fireplace with a gorgeous wooden mantle. The formal dining is perfect for entertaining and the updated kitchen has a new stove, a farmhouse sink, and plenty of space for an eat-in table. Off of the kitchen is a main floor 3/4 bath and a family room addition, which could also be a great guest room area, and has a new mini-split for both cooling and heating. There are 4 bedrooms on the 2nd level and a full bath complete with a claw foot tub - plus more hardwoods and large windows bringing in that natural light. You'll love the abundance of closet space as well. The 3rd level is beautifully finished with knotty pine tongue and groove and features 2 additional bedrooms or dens/offices. The basement has been recently painted and features a natural gas Weil McClain boiler, a newer gas hot water heater, a big laundry area, a stone foundation, and tons of storage. You can also access the basement from the back and side yards. The fully fenced yard is good sized and private, and there's a storage shed, a place to store the boats, and a delightful water feature, which is shaded by the large pines on the property. The 2 car detached garage is perfect for your vehicles and extra toys. This lovely home, which is filled with character and great space throughout, is in a sweet location, with a grocery store, elementary school, vet clinic, a restaurant, miles of hiking, biking, snowshoeing, and snowmobiling trails - all within blocks. An absolute must see!
Lakeside-Lester Park, located between Lake Superior’s shoreline and the wooded ridges of Lester Park, is a residential and outdoorsy Duluth neighborhood with a lakeside trail culture and a classic corner-commercial feel. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Lakeside business district near E Superior St and 47th Ave E, where small storefronts, cafes, and everyday errands share the sidewalk with trail-bound foot traffic. New Scenic Café and the historic Glensheen Mansion act as local touchstones for dining and culture. Housing leans toward early- to mid-century homes and cottages, often set on sloped lots with big trees and lake air. Lester Park’s creek corridors and ski trails shape daily routines, while the Lakewalk and Brighton Beach keep the horizon in view.
