Welcome to your dream home! This stunning Esko property on 43 acres is surrounded by Jay Cooke State Park and the Munger Trail with a delightful combination of open pasture and lush, mature woods. All within 15 minutes from Duluth and all that it has to offer! Curb appeal is off the charts with beautiful landscaping, a stamped concrete walkway, and a modern metal, cedar shake, and brick exterior. You’ll love the oversized concrete driveway and the 2-car attached, heated garage. There’s even a room in the back of the garage for storing all your toys! Step onto the expansive covered front porch and into the large, tiled entryway and get your first glimpse of this remarkable open-concept space. The vaulted cedar tongue-and-groove ceilings mingle playfully with the home’s other natural elements—the living room’s wood-burning fireplace with stone hearth and elegant built-in custom cabinetry, and the kitchen’s quarter-sawn oak cabinets, granite countertops, and warm wood-plank flooring. You’ll also appreciate the kitchen’s massive center island, the walk-in pantry, and the stainless steel appliances. Adjacent, you’ll find the dining area with access to the enclosed 3-season porch with a breathtaking view. In this 4-bed, 3-bath home, two of the home’s four bedrooms, including the master suite, reside on the main floor. The master has a walk-in closet complete with laundry facilities! Downstairs features two more bedrooms, tons of storage, and another ¾ bath. There’s even a beautiful back patio with a pergola and a stamped concrete floor! This home boasts central air and forced air/propane with geothermal heat. But that’s only the beginning! The possibilities are endless with this enormous Morton building that offers both heated and insulated space and cold storage with a 14TX18W garage door. There’s also a ¾ bath, a sink, and lots of counter space. And the adorable "she shed" is perfect for garden supplies! The pond is stocked with hybrid bluegills and is aerated year around. There is an established maple syrup operation on the property. In order to improve the health of the sugar and red maples by opening the canopy, a select cut of trees was completed in 2010. Currently, in excess of 600 maple trees are tapped annually. The property is voluntarily managed for honeybees, butterflies, and pollinators.
