Description

Set high on the hill with a presence all its own, this architecturally distinctive home blends modern design with an inviting warmth, creating a space that feels elevated and effortlessly cool! With sweeping views of Lake Superior, Bayfront, and the iconic Lift Bridge, the backdrop here is nothing short of stunning, offering year-round beauty from summer sunsets and 4th of July fireworks to the glow of Bentleyville in winter! From the moment you arrive, there’s a sense that this home is something special. A welcoming front deck leads into a tiled entry, opening to a main level that feels expansive, light-filled, and thoughtfully connected. The living, dining, and kitchen spaces flow seamlessly together, defined by clean lines, intentional design, and a balance of modern style and cozy character. Oversized windows draw the outside in, while the layout invites both relaxed everyday living and easy entertaining! At the heart of the home, the kitchen offers a generous counters, cabinets, and open sightlines - perfectly positioned for gathering, cooking, and conversation! Just beyond, main floor laundry adds convenience without compromising the home’s design-forward feel. The true signature of the home is the striking two-story sunroom, a space that transforms with the seasons and captures light from morning to evening! Whether it’s coffee at sunrise or quiet evenings overlooking the lake, this room elevates daily living into something memorable! Upstairs, two spacious bedrooms each feature walk-in closets and a sense of openness that continues throughout the home. The bathroom feels like a private retreat, complete with a deep soaker tub, a fully tiled walk-in shower with rain shower head, and double vanities! Out back, a patio creates the perfect setting for grilling and gathering, while the additional lot expands the outdoor experience, offering space for bonfires, entertaining, or simply enjoying the privacy and greenery that surrounds you! This is not your typical hillside home. With its distinctive design, warm modern aesthetic, and unforgettable views, it offers a lifestyle that’s as unique as the home itself - just moments from the energy, dining, and charm of downtown Duluth!

    "We’ve lived in the neighborhood 10 years- it’s close to everything. Before having kids we would regularly walk to downtown and canal park. It’s also close to hiking and biking trails. "

    "Depending on the time of day, be careful cause sometimes you have some “interesting” people out and about. The sidewalks are also not kept up very well, especially in the wintertime. Otherwise it is a half ways decent area to walk your dog, from my experience that is. "

    "Million dollar views with middle class affordability. Hidden gem of Duluth. Watch 4th of July fireworks from a deck, children biking in the street, and parents walking strollers to Enger Park. It's like "Cheers" except everybody knows the name of their neighbor's dog! "
