About 25 minutes from downtown Duluth you'll find this Timber Frame lake home nestled into nearly 5 acres of mature maple & mixed forest, with about 200' of shoreline on Fish Lake Reservoir--allowing you to enjoy all the outdoor seasonal activities your heart desires! Just a few minutes from about 2500 acres of a Wildlife Management Area, too. Well insulated and warmed by in-floor heat + a beautiful Finnish masonry fireplace, you'll be comfortable year-round. Loft style allows for 2 large BRs up + a full bath and there's a mini split A.C. unit to keep you cooled down on the occasional hot summer nights. Main floor living is focused on the lakeviews and offers a deck & screen porch facing Fish Lake. The kitchen features cherry cabinetry w/pantry area, ceramic tile floors and brand new stainless appliances. There's an upper-level "bonus area" that's gently heated by the gas stove FP below in the den. This home is designed with "woodsy living" in mind; much of the wood used in the home was harvested from this very land. The large windows allow for lots of natural light and virtually bring the outdoors right in to your living space. You'll enjoy this quiet spot year-'round. There's an attached 2-car garage, plus a huge pole barn/shop with partial insulation & heat. Store your toys, create your "cave" space, use it as a workshop. 15 minutes to Mall area and schools.
