Close-country living at its finest--that's what you'll discover when you enter this property. The magnificent traditional style home will provide you with ample space to refresh, relax, and recharge. Recent renovations by a talented licensed contractor have transformed main floor space to an oasis of en-suite privacy, with a walk-in closet, laundry, windows facing the pond, and a glorious deck upon which to enjoy your morning java or your evening read. (Among other improvements made.) The cook's kitchen is a joy, with eat-in space and a casual elegance that welcomes everyone in. Upstairs you'll find 4 nice bedrooms with a full bath, and downstairs there's a rec room that could accommodate a theatre space, or game tables, or whatever it is you like doing. There's an office area and a workshop, too. But DO NOT overlook the acreage. You'll fall in love with the pond, the fruit trees, the huge barn, and the "bat cave". Legend has it, it was once upon a time used as a root cellar, but one can imagine other uses over the years! Trails have been groomed for your wheelers or for walking. You might rent winter storage space in the barn to your friends for their boats and hot rods, or you might convert it into an area for your future goats and chickens. Just 30 minutes to Duluth and 15 to Jay Cooke, this property wants you to start living the dream--close enough, yet far enough away, too. Sellers say that kids can be bussed to Carlton, Barnum, or Wrenshall from this location. Currently participating in MN Power’s Dual Fuel program. Genesis Wireless offers free wifi in lieu of using the silos for their service towers.
