About This Home

Set in the heart of Congdon, just moments from Lake Superior, this extraordinary residence blends timeless character with over 5,100 square feet of thoughtfully reimagined living. Every space has been designed to gather, entertain, and unwind—from mornings filled with natural light to evenings spent beside the fire or on the deck surrounded by mature pines. The heart of the home is a stunning chef’s kitchen, where handcrafted walnut countertops, custom cabinetry, generous gathering spaces, and seamless indoor-outdoor flow make every meal an occasion. Exposed beams, warm wood accents, and sophisticated finishes create a home that feels both elevated and inviting. With six bedrooms, four baths, multiple living areas, private retreats, and flexible spaces for work, guests, or multigenerational living, this home adapts beautifully to every stage of life. Located just blocks from the shoreline, parks, trails, and the charm of one of Duluth’s most sought-after neighborhoods, this is more than a home—it’s a place where memories are made, traditions begin, and every season offers something extraordinary. Luxury isn’t simply what you see. It’s how a home makes you feel. Welcome to Congdon
