    What's special

    Perched above the shores of Lake Superior on 2.53 private acres, this exceptional 3 bedroom, 3 bath home with an attached 1 bedroom, 1 bath apartment offers luxury living, lake views, and incredible flexibility for personal use or income potential. Currently enjoyed as both a private getaway and successful vacation rental, this property is just one block from the start of the legendary Grandma's Marathon starting line. The heart of the home is the gourmet kitchen, thoughtfully designed with granite countertops, hickory cabinetry, professional-grade refrigerator and freezer, double ovens, gas cooktop, breakfast bar, and a spacious pantry. The living room showcases soaring vaulted ceilings, a cozy gas fireplace, and dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows framing lake views above the treetops. The private primary suite is a true retreat featuring views of the lake, dual sinks, a large walk-in shower, and its own dedicated laundry area. The walkout lower level offers an expansive family room, two additional bedrooms, full bath, wet bar, abundant storage, and access to a covered poured concrete patio. Versatile bonus spaces throughout the home provide endless options for a home office, playroom, TV lounge, or hobby area. Outdoor living is equally impressive with a maintenance-free wraparound deck that spans the front of the home, partially covered for relaxing or entertaining while taking in the views. Comfort is enhanced with two new mini-split systems providing efficient air conditioning. The heated 3 stall attached garage includes three new EV chargers along with a convenient wash-up bathroom just inside the entry. The attached apartment offers excellent guest accommodations or rental income potential with its own full kitchen, laundry, bath, private deck overlooking the lake, and a spacious bedroom complete with a jacuzzi tub. Rarely does a property combine privacy, luxury, recreation, and income opportunity in such an unforgettable North Shore setting.
