Tucked away on 11 scenic acres with 1,320 feet of frontage along serene Monker Creek, this well-built and lovingly maintained 2-bedroom home offers the perfect blend of comfort, privacy, and natural beauty. The open floor plan includes a traditional kitchen with generous counter space, a sunlit living room with peaceful creek views, and a cozy dining area—all centered around a classic brick fireplace with a beautifully tiled hearth. The full walk-out basement offers great potential, featuring a laundry area, shower, and workspace, plus ample room to finish as a family room, fitness area, or creative studio. A second kitchen area provides ideal space for canning, hobbies, or extra storage. The spacious primary bedroom includes ample closet space, while the second bedroom—with a framed glass door leading to the backyard—works perfectly as a guest room, home office, or den. Follow a wooded trail to the cedar log sauna, then continue a bit further to discover a charming guest cabin complete with an open front porch, wood stove, kitchenette, composting bathroom, and roomy sleeping loft—ideal for visitors or a private retreat. The manicured yard, dotted with mature trees and shrubs, is a peaceful spot to unwind or enjoy a bonfire along the creek.

A two-stall garage with a rear workshop completes the package—all just 5.5 miles from Grand Marais on a county-maintained road. Don’t miss this rare opportunity—schedule your showing today!
