Overlooking Lake Superior’s northern coast, this well-crafted and carefully maintained log home presents awe-inspiring views and deluxe comfort. The 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. There’s even a few “Yooperlites” hidden in the 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. The basement bathroom includes a sauna with electric stove. On the outside there is an extensive porch that wraps around 3 sides of the home. Imagine the cleansing breezes as you gaze into the Milky Way while Northern lights dance on the horizon. Breathtaking sunsets are a regular occurrence here. The 2 car garage has space for needed tools and equipment and boasts a workshop on the upper floor accessible from the upper porch. The ground floor breezeway leading to the garage has a full supply of firewood for the new owner. As you wander from the home, you can walk through 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 enjoy the waters of Lake Superior. (The lower section of the staircase was removed by a recent storm, but the beach is still accessible). Here, you are at the heart of all the wonders and outdoor adventures the Keweenaw has to offer!
