Property Description

A private 5-acre estate within Ashland town limits, overlooking Lake Superior. This custom-designed home was built around a passive solar philosophy?a south-facing atrium floods the open-concept living, dining, and kitchen areas with natural light, while a handcrafted masonry heater with built-in pizza and bread oven anchors the home and radiates warmth long after the fire goes out. Rich interior details include hickory cabinetry, cherry wood stairways, and vaulted ceilings throughout. Recent updates include a new furnace and central AC, updated kitchen and appliances, new washer/dryer, and improved basement walkout with new retaining walls. The property?s private artesian well and solar hot water system reflect a low-maintenance, ecologically thoughtful design. Outdoors, meadows and private walking paths connect directly to Prentice Park, the City?s paved lakefront trail, and downtown?all within a few hundred feet. Perennials, raspberries, blackberries, plum and apple trees are spread across the beautifully maintained grounds, with a hot tub, fire-pit, and multiple decks for enjoying the views and wildlife. The detached 4-stall garage features a new foundation, new siding, and an attached storage shed, with a renovated upper loft offering 1,200 sq ft of bonus living space, its own wood stove, and a large deck with Lake Superior views.
