Running from the Cascade River is a ridge of maples, glorious in the fall and sap for syrup in spring! At the end of this ridge is 7.5 acres of Home Sweet Home. The coveted Pike Lake Rd area, out past Babineau Corner, close to the XC ski and snowmobile trails, and near to peaceful, fish-ful Pike Lake. All just 11 miles from Grand Marais. Each building at this property was well-constructed and lovingly maintained. It’s the sort of Northwoods’ place an owner develops slowly and carefully over time. Putting thought into each step, each clearing, how to place structures and windows just so. To let light dance, winds meander, and downy flakes pile up in myriad forms. Gardening is important: sustenance of course, but soul work, so may as well have several gardens, even asparagus! All is ready: soil enriched, fenced. There are lilacs and other thoughtful contributions to the local flora. It’s the sort of spot that’s hard to come by these days: high and dry upland, a boreal forest kissing a maple sugarbush. Two sides abut thousands of acres of public land. Wander, wonder, take a nap in pathless woods. Return home by following the scent and beacon of woodsmoke curling from the woodstove. Two bedrooms, one bath, a light-filled living room facing southwest. A sunroom for contemplating seed catalogs in the winter and plowing through novels anytime of year. A spacious deck adjoins the sunroom and an upper whimsical deck provides a commanding view, a place to sun-worship, dream, talk it all out. A shed near the home is pure purpose, compartmentalized: wood storage, gardening tools, machine storage (rototiller, snowblower..), all the seasonal necessities of a northern life. Garage down the hill is also well designed: wings for additional storage and a heated workshop/office – plan and complete the projects! It all started for the current owners with what is now a little bunkhouse. They lived there first while envisioning how to open the land for an extended stay, raise a family, get to know all the birds, and other neighbors. Now it can be for friends and family, a little studio, lots of options. Seller generously wants to get you going in the right direction: lots of excellent personal property can be included. This is a dreamy opportunity to take over a true homestead. A very comfortable and inviting place, settled in now, still fresh and strong – a home in its prime looking for new owners to thrive with, dream a bit, do the daily business of loving and living.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
