Description

Welcome to this stately traditional 2 story home that has been loved and cared for by the same family for over 50 years on a gorgeous corner lot in Lakeside. This home is a true delight to experience from outside to inside. You’re greeted by mature trees and gardens as you approach the front steps. Step inside and be in awe of the beautifully refinished white oak floors and the crown molding throughout the main floor. The large living room features a wood burning fireplace and a cheery sunroom off the living room. The formal dining room features a wall of built-in cabinets to showcase your finest dishware and treasures. The updated kitchen features granite countertops, newer stainless-steel appliances, and a built-in table top for eat-in dining. Last but not least, the powder room on the main floor is a truly appreciated feature of this style home. Upstairs features gorgeous refinished maple floors, three bedrooms, and a full updated bathroom. The large primary bedroom features double closets and a 9x13 sunroom with endless possibilities for use. Taking in that sneak peak view of Lake Superior upstairs will bring a smile to your face, and the backside of the home features a shaker porch to catch a glimpse of the weather before you start the day or take in the stars at night. The basement features the classic ‘Duluth style’ open concept ½ bath, and plenty of workshop space for all the projects. The detached garage features ample space to park 2 cars, and two finished heated workshops. The seller has taken care of everything in this home. Updated vinyl replacement windows, the roof was replaced in 2014, maintenance-free steel siding, new garage door, and a newer blacktop driveway. The backyard greenspace will take your breath away! It’s a true sanctuary in your backyard. Gardens, garden sheds, a canopy of tree coverage, a tree swing, and a maintenance-free deck with a pergola to sit and take it all in.

    "People of all ages live here. Also wealthy people and low income people live here. I would love to see it more diverse though"
  • Lisa Sturm
    "Lots of dog walking in Duluth. There are also dog parks. Trails to walk on, lakes to swim in. My neighborhood nearly every house has a dog."
  • Stacy M.
    "Access to public transportation if needed, feels a lot more like a neighborhood and not part of the larger city. Plenty of access to the lake, hiking and biking trails, parks. Excellent place to live regardless of what stage of life you are in. "
  • dghergich
    "The sidewalks are well maintained and you will see people out walking dogs most times of the day. It is a friendly neighborhood where most people clean up after their pets and don’t leave messes. "
  • Trulia User
    "The Halloween trick or treating experience was picture perfect for our little ones. So many houses were decked out and giving out treats. It was also a very safe and walkable neighborhood to be out in the dark."
  • Trulia User

  • Snetwal23

  • Sarahrochel
    "There are lots of other kids here, and it’s a friendly neighborhood! Plus having Lester park nearby is awesome, and it’s very walkable. Safe roads and sidewalks. "
  • Sarahrochel
    "There are lots of other dogs here! I don’t know anyone on my street who doesn’t have at least one dog. "
  • Jroselipka
    "Lake walk is close by and city buses stop across the road many times a day so you wouldn’t necessarily need a car for transportation. Grocery store 1 mile away from my home and 3 gas stations, Coffee shop, post office, couple restaurants, snap fitness, parks, doctors office, chiropractor and dentist all within a mile but mostly within a couple blocks! Very convenient place to live!"
  • Sue W. A.
    "It has nice parks located all over Lakeside-Lester Park. There’s a big block party in the summer. Lots of kids running around the neighborhoods are having a lot of fun "
  • trustchristtobesaved

  • Belangerpope
    "Nice and Quiet. Great place for kids and animals. Beats living in the Central Hillside. Also very convenient when it comes to places."
