726 W 5th St, Duluth, MN 55806

Wake up to Lake Superior every day. Set high on a double lot on Observation Hill, this split-entry home was designed around its view Lake Superior, the Aerial Lift Bridge, Park Point, the harbor, and the St. Louis River all spread out below. The layout balances privacy with those sightlines, so you get an outlook that's hard to find anywhere else in Duluth. Big windows in the kitchen, dining area, living room, and primary bedroom keep the lake in view all day, and the upstairs bonus room goes even further from up there you can watch ships pass, look out toward Enger Tower, and take in the city skyline. Inside, roughly 2,800 square feet gives you room to breathe: 4 bedrooms, a versatile bonus room, and 2 bathrooms. Vaulted ceilings and hardwood floors run through a semi-open layout connecting the living room, kitchen, dining area, and deck, so the space works equally well for a quiet night in or a house full of guests. Head downstairs and you'll find a walkout lower level with a large rec room and two more bedrooms plenty of extra space to spread out, work, or host. The 35-foot deck facing the lake is the home's centerpiece, reachable straight from the kitchen/dining area and from the primary bedroom. It's the spot for morning coffee or an evening with friends, with harbor traffic drifting by in the background. The property also includes a second lot, a 2-stall insulated garage, room for extra vehicles, a generous garden area, and a second-story balcony off the bonus room. A gas fireplace warms the dining room, and an easy-to-reach attic adds bonus storage. Recent updates give you peace of mind: a new roof on the house and garage (2026), a new water heater (2025), new carpet (2026), and a freshly updated lower-level bathroom (2025). You're a short walk from Enger Tower & Golf Course, Twin Ponds, and the Lake Superior Hiking Trails with all the quiet and wildlife that comes with them and just minutes by car from Canal Park, the Park Point beaches, the Mill Hill Mall area, and the Craft District. With approximately 2,800 square feet, 4 bedrooms, a bonus room, and 2 bathrooms, this home is suited for both functional everyday living and entertaining. A semi-open-concept design, vaulted ceilings, and hardwood floors create a natural flow between the living room, kitchen, dining area, and deck. The lower level includes a spacious rec room, two additional bedrooms, and a walkout basement, giving plenty of room to spread out. Outside, the star of the show is the 35-foot lake-facing deck with access from the kitchen/dining area and the primary bedroom. Whether enjoying a quiet morning or entertaining friends, the setting is ideal for taking in the views and watching ships move through the harbor. Additional features include the double lot, a 2-stall insulated garage, extra parking, a large garden, and a second-story balcony off the upper bonus room. The dining room includes a gas fireplace, and an easily accessible attic offers generous storage. Recent updates include a new roof on both the house and garage (2026), water heater (2025), new carpet (2026), and a refreshed lower-level bathroom (2025). Located within easy walking distance to Enger Tower & Golf Course, Twin Ponds, and the Lake Superior Hiking Trails, you'll enjoy serene views and wildlife while being just a few minutes' drive from Canal Park, Park Point beaches, the Mill Hill Mall area, and the Craft District.
