A tasteful older cabin along Stonegate Rd on the shores of Lake Superior near Hovland was spied from the water by the current owners. “That’s the place!” was cried out. A dream came true and was enjoyed. Then, the vision evolved and a happy marriage of classic and modern came together. Renowned builder Clarence Kemp was engaged and an addition of lofty beams, careful craftmanship, and windows aplenty came to fruition. Scandinavian design sensibility: open, clean lines in the addition, warm, cozy comfort in the older wing. All is now settled on 7+ acres and 200+ feet of frontage on the crystal waters of Gitche Gummi. Accessible ledgerock tumbles and splits into endless interesting geometries. And, some years, a big late season storm shoves a bunch of ice into a pile many feet thick - an owner can find ice into June hiding down among the rocks! It’s pure and cool here! Two bedrooms, three baths and a couple kitchens create space for friends and family. The main kitchen is class-act with granite topped center island, and charmingly assisted and warmed with the backside of a masonry woodstove complete with a bread/pizza oven. On the flipside is the woodstove that crackles and glows into the living room and dining area. Spacious dining area has unique tiled chair rail and inspirational stained glass windows that peek out to the woods and sauna! The sauna is easily accessed via decking. Sit in the swinging chair between reps or go take a dip – I dare you! Back inside, the living room is the place! Windows galore serve a feast for the eyes. Lot of space here for entertaining. Or be alone, in the quiet, lofted space and views to the horizon – a person can begin to get caught up in the calming oneness this pristine boreal environment makes so palpable. The main bedroom is reached via a beautiful wood staircase. En suite bath and a simple balcony for greeting the day. Heat from the masonry woodstove seeps into this room and all is dreamy, easeful living. There are places to sequester off to when needed. In the classic cabin is a 4-season porch of light and solitude. Another fireplace is good to take off the winter chill with a book or private conversation. Outside is a simple garage with a bunkroom awaiting your vision. The forest all around is classic Northwoods, much to see: warblers, lichens, furry shy neighbors. There is a vibe here, sensed immediately. Come back to the senses here with this home of some old, some new and now you!
