About this House

What's unique:Selected window updatesUpdates to the kitchenNew vinyl siding
Small affordable one bedroom home with updates and remodel in 2002. Back then a new 22 x 24 garage was built along with updates to the kitchen and bath, along with new vinyl siding and selected Window updates. Nice private 12 x 16 deck overlooking the backyard. One car off street parking in the back. This home is solid but could use some TLC to update - a block and one half from the Ely public school on a quiet street with great neighbors!

    "Ely is located at the end of the road. No roads go to much further north due to the boundary waters canoe area which strictly prohibits dwellings or any man made structures. Ely can seem like a long way from anywhere at times and the community recognizes this and most willing are willing to help whoever and whenever the need may arise. We take care of our own and then some . "

    "as a new comer to ely try to get into activities around town, especially if you have younger children who are not school age. jobs are not always easy to find and though the cost of living is fairly low you do money can get tight quickly. ely is a nice town but it's hard on you too. more work for less. your kids are safe here but still know who you're talking to before hand."
