Description

Experience the magic of the Minnesota North Shore at this A-frame sanctuary, tucked among old-growth conifers and just steps away from Lake Superior — with a beach just across the way — without the high taxes. This property is set along the scenic East Hwy 61, in Hovland, and blends rustic charm with the simple and beautiful abundance of nature and north woods living. A seasonal creek runs through the property, and blooms Marsh Marigolds in the Spring. A small bridge leads you into trails perfect for hiking, skiing, and exploring. There is a magical, secret path that leads to a waterfall and a secluded swimming hole, where you will only find the company of woodland creatures. The property is rich with medicinal plants and established fruiting trees. Inside, the home welcomes you with a spacious mudroom offering a large closet for all your outdoor gear. From there, move through the kitchen and into the open living and dining area, featuring bamboo floors and direct access to a screened-in porch—an ideal spot to enjoy the forest’s quiet rhythms. Upstairs, cathedral ceilings frame 2½ bedrooms, one with a Lake Superior view and another overlooking the foothills and forest, where moose, bear, and ravens are frequent visitors. The home includes a detached garage for vehicles, tools, and outdoor equipment, and the expansive yard offers room for gardening or play. Recent updates include a new energy-efficient furnace and a new septic system, providing a solid foundation for someone ready to bring creativity and care to this rustic retreat. With direct access to Highway 61, you’re minutes from Lake Superior’s rocky beaches, the Superior Hiking Trail, Judge C.R. Magney State Park, and the countless outdoor adventures that make Hovland such a sought-after destination. Grand Marais is a scenic drive away for dining, arts, and amenities. Perfect for those seeking inspiration, simplicity, and a deeper connection to nature, this North Shore A-frame offers peace, privacy, and the rare magic of living among the wild.
