This is not your typical log home—there is a story and exceptional craftsmanship behind nearly every detail. Built in 2000 by the owner, an experienced general contractor and commercial developer, the home was created using standing dead Engelmann spruce harvested in British Columbia. The logs were transported to Victor, Montana to be milled before making their way to Michigan's Upper Peninsula. Swedish Cope construction, saddle-notched corners and hand-hewn logs give the home the timeless character of an authentic old-world cabin. That craftsmanship continues throughout the interior with solid hickory flooring on the main level, custom hickory kitchen cabinetry accented with walnut pegs, and a one-of-a-kind loft bookshelf handcrafted from logs left over from the home's construction. Custom cherry and cedar cabinetry and mirrors can be found in the bathrooms, while the primary suite features custom maple closet shelving and unique wildlife inlays incorporated into the bathroom floor. At the heart of the home is dramatic approximately 24-foot stonework surrounding an Xtrordinair zero-clearance catalytic wood-burning fireplace capable of producing up to approximately 70,000 BTUs. Its curved gold-plated doors and faceplate create a striking centerpiece for the home. Comfort was thoughtfully designed into the property as well. A high-efficiency Navien on-demand system provides both heat and domestic hot water, with in-floor heat in the basement, a combination of in-floor and baseboard heat on the main level, and baseboard heat upstairs. A freeze alarm system provides additional peace of mind by calling a designated number if power is lost or the home's temperature falls below a preset level. Even the lower level has a connection to the land—the cedar log column covers near the bar were created from a fallen cedar tree right from the property. Outside, Trex decking provides a wonderful place to take in the Lake Superior setting, and the home is topped with a 50-year-rated architectural shingle roof. This is a home that truly needs to be experienced in person to appreciate the quality of construction, custom woodwork and attention to detail. Please allow adequate time for showings.
