Description

Overlooking Lake Superior’s northern coast, this well-crafted and carefully maintained log home presents awe-inspiring views and deluxe comfort with over 800 feet of Lake Superior shoreline. Here, you are at the center of all that the Keweenaw has to offer! Red pine logs from Marquette County have been carefully fitted and showcase each tree’s character. Solid oak flooring from Dollar Bay, MI covers the main floor with open living room, dining and kitchen under a lofted ceiling. The open format is ideal for gathering and entertaining, then relaxing and quiet enjoyment by the fire. The Lake Superior stone chimney and fireplace is the centerpiece of this home. A few “Yooperlites” are hidden in these stones. There are two fireplaces; one on the main floor and then a complimenting one in the basement gathering space. On the main floor you’ll find the main bedroom, a full bath with separate shower and bathtub, and a library den that leads you up to the loft. Each of these areas has inspiring views of the lake or forest. The basement level has a large gathering area with in-floor heating, a walk-out patio and a spacious finished bedroom and walk-in closet. Install included ceiling tiles (in garage) to easily boost the square footage by over 750 square feet in the basement gathering space. Connected to this area is the 3/4 bathroom and attached electric-stove sauna. An extensive porch wraps around 3 sides of the home. Imagine Superior breezes as you gaze into the Milky Way while Northern lights dance on the horizon. Breathtaking sunsets are a regular occurrence. The detached 2-car garage has space for tools and equipment and boasts a workshop on the upper floor accessible by the upper porch. This could make a great apartment! The ground floor breezeway has a full supply of firewood for the new owner. Wandering from the home, you’ll experience the 40+ acres with varied terrain including meadows, wooded ridges, ponds and a nearby hunting blind. Across the road, descend the staircase to the pebble beach to search for agates and yooperlites and enjoy the waters of Lake Superior. (The lower section of the staircase was removed by a recent storm, but the beach is still accessible). Roof re-shingled in 2015 on the forest side, then on the lake side in 2017, and garage in 2019 by WildKat Builders.
