Here is your chance to own a piece of history in Hermantown. This 3 bedroom log home is on 12.71 surveyed acres with river frontage in Hermantown. It was built at the turn of the 20th Century. This home has been added onto, and has been wrapped in siding so the log construction is not readily apparent, but it is there. The main floor has a nice enclosed porch with tons of space to store your gear. The living room is cozy and allows for many options for your furniture. The kitchen has lots of cabinet space, a refrigerator, and gas stove. There is formal dining available for you and your guests. The main floor bedroom is available for those who don't like stairs and there are 2 bedrooms upstairs for the rest of the inhabitants. There is a main floor full bathroom with a tub and shower, toilet, and a vanity with a sink. The garage collapsed last year under the snow, but the slab remains. The well is drilled and the water has been tested recently. The septic system was replaced in the fall of 2023 so the yard is a little torn up right now by the construction but the system is compliant! The furnace was just serviced and is ready for winter. Outside you will find rolling land. The lot is 12.71 acres and surveyed. The seller is keeping 5+ acres but may be willing to sell the additional acreage to a buyer that buys the home and 12 acres. The Midway River runs through the property and has approximately 1800 feet of frontage. There is a high wooded spot in the back of the lot that would be an attractive place to build a storage building or another structure. Riverfront acreage and a home in Hermantown, now wouldn't that be nice?
