Designed for both comfort and entertainment, the main level features a spacious kitchen, dining room, and living room—all oriented to capture warm southern views. Vaulted ceilings, natural woodwork, and a cozy wood-burning stove create a welcoming, lodge-like atmosphere. A handcrafted open staircase leads to a generous loft area that includes the primary bedroom, a private bath, and a peaceful sitting area perfect for reading or relaxing. On the main floor, you'll also find a large guest bedroom, a full bathroom, a laundry room, and a roomy entry porch with custom-made doors and ample space for boots and outdoor gear. Enjoy your morning coffee while birdwatching on the delightful 3-season porch located just off the kitchen or unwinding on the south-facing deck overlooking the peaceful surroundings. The lower walkout offers even more living space with a family room, third bedroom featuring a walk-in closet, a hobby room, utility room, and abundant storage. The insulated garage includes plenty of workshop space, and the property also features a woodshed, storage building, RV dump station, and ample parking. Located just 7 miles from Grand Marais via well-maintained County Roads 7 and 44, this home puts you minutes from hiking, skiing, fishing, and all the outdoor adventures the North Shore has to offer.
