Contemporary Classic on Superior Beach. This 2020-built one-level home features a clean, quality Scandanavian feel, with economy of space that utilizes thoughtful and functional design. Featuring huge Lowen triple glazed windows bringing in the lake view, a large and well appointed kitchen set up for someone who loves to cook (36" BlueStar gas range-top, Wolff wall ovens and Subzero fridge), and quality features and finishes too many to list. The Hers and His layout is compact, yet promotes private spaces and contemplative settings. The landscaped patio area with flowers boxes and seating-areas flows to the detached 2-car heated garage, where there is a stunning workout room with huge windows overlooking the lake, laundry and storage. In the upper-level is the guest quarters with bath and balcony. It is equal in all detail to the main house. The property features materials and construction technique that promote energy efficiency, longevity and limit maintenance. There are rich wood ceilings and beams, all walls are wood shiplap, plus Brazilian slate floors. Construction is structural insulated panels, steel siding and roof, with Kebony wood from Norway. This is a dream home, set up by a preretirement couple; the last place they intended to build. It feels like a finely crafted heirloom. The location is just 3 miles from Grand Marais, and just a minute's walk to the Croftville Road, known for its classic North Shore vibe and scenic sea-side walk.
