Description

Lake Superior Gem designed by Dale Mulfinger, the “Cabinologist” of SALA Architects. This 3 bedroom, 2 bath home was constructed to be at once perfect for a couple folks and suitable for the whole crew. Sprawling 6.6 acres of land with 1100+ feet of Lake Superior frontage is bounded on the northeast by Kennedy Creek: rushing in spring, shady and fun to explore in the summer, a trickle in the fall with leafy pools. Owners minimized impact on the land, preserving the purity of a palisade peninsula. Thoughtfully envisioned, the unique shape of the home references the surrounding angular cliff faces and ledge rock. Boreal plant communities continue uninterrupted as they have since the glacier receded. Of note is a sweet patch of blueberries just steps from the stone patio. Gathering here, with each plunk of berry in the pail, time begins to slip, slows down and one comes into a Gitche Gummi frame of mind. The big sea waters glittering, sun dancing with the diatoms, wave sounds keeping time. The 2900+ square foot home has the artistic touches expected in a design by an architect crafting at the height of his career. The walls, finish, and windows were designed to direct sylvan, lake light deep into the home. The windows frame unique landmarks and oceanic views. Triple pane glass and careful details exceed environmental standards – a cozy container of design steadfast in this wild, moody setting. The architectural team gave a great deal of thought to how the exterior had to act like a down jacket to meet the environmental concerns of the owners. Inside a central, diagonal wall clad in black granite tile is dramatic creating a division in the home. On the main floor the kitchen, dining and living room with their walls of glass are separated from the mudroom, bathroom and guest bedroom. A gourmet kitchen, thoughtfully designed with highest quality appliances and lovely kitchen island with remarkable lighting. On the upper floor, the granite tiled wall separates more guest spaces from the owner’s suite. The walk-out below is a family room area opening to the inviting patio. All three levels connect by a geometric stairway – a focal design element. A simple bunkhouse predates the owner’s purchase, and they have kept it up awaiting the use and vision of the next owner. This opportunity is ready to go, well maintained, nothing to do but show up and start living the Lake Superior life imagined and hoped for.
