Description

Conveniently located smack dab in the middle of everything Ely has to offer! This 3 bedroom 2 bath home is bright and airy with good sized bedrooms, a fenced in yard, 2 stall garage with an extra parking spot outside, a nice back deck, and big kitchen space. No need to drive to the bait shop or to get gas, just walk across the alley and you'll be ready to hit the water in minutes! The newer propane furnace (2023) and new roof (2025) make this a nicely priced house to live comfortably in while you start to make it your own.

    "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."
