Description

Step into this beautifully renovated 2-bedroom, 2-bath home in the heart of Ely, offering the perfect blend of modern updates and original character. A covered front porch and a stunning, intricate front door set the tone for the charm inside. The main floor features 9’ ceilings, a brand-new kitchen with fresh tiled flooring, a new full bath, and refinished hardwood floors throughout. Upstairs, you’ll find two cozy bedrooms with thoughtfully updated closets, convenient built-ins, and a quaint updated half bath. Renovations also revealed the home’s original shiplap, now sealed and painted white to create a bright, timeless aesthetic. The bright walk-out basement, complete with new sump pump and compliant sewer line, offers high ceilings, laundry area, extra square footage, and a renovated electric sauna, adding both function and charm. Outside, enjoy beautifully designed gardens, a paver patio, and fully fenced front and back yards—perfect for entertaining or relaxing. While the newer roof and maintenance-free siding provide peace of mind, a 1-car garage plus additional off-street parking adds convenience. Located in downtown Ely, this property is zoned C-1, offering flexibility and opportunity. Whether you’re looking for a charming home or a short-term rental investment, it’s move-in ready and full of potential—ideal as a year-round residence, Northwoods getaway, or income-producing rental. From its character-filled interiors to its beautifully landscaped outdoor spaces, this home truly captures the best of Ely living—comfortable, stylish, and ready to welcome its next owner.

    "Ely is surrounded by forests and it’s a lovely, peaceful place to reside. There are wonderful restaurants, shops, a great movie theater and a variety of outdoor activities to choose from year round. "
  • Derek H.
    "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 . "
  • Jennifer P.
    "Don't move here if you don't like being out in the woods. ppl on this town take care of each other. even if you're new. as long as you show you want to be part of Ely. "
  • Jennifer P.
    "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."
  • Rvhall
    "There is no public transport in this neighborhood , but Arrowhead transport does run in town for a nominal fee and there are weekly trips to Virginia Mn."
  • Lora L.
    "We have cab service and in town bus service. It’s a 25 block walk from first place in town to last. Generally, the city park,police,fire,library dot,and shopping district are within 8 blocks from anywhere."
