Description

Special Opportunity! The pump house is one of Duluth's iconic and historical properties. This solid brick "mini mansion" is located as close to Lake Superior as you can get! Elizabeth Congdon owned the property for 30+ years. It has only changed hands a few times and every owner since has absolutely loved living so close to the lake! Just the 200' lot and concrete seawall is worth the price! Present owners had preliminary plans to expand the second floor of the home, to include three full bedrooms...Special Opportunity! The pump house is one of Duluth's iconic and historical properties. This solid brick "mini mansion" is located as close to Lake Superior as you can get! Elizabeth Congdon owned the property for 30+ years. It has only changed hands a few times and every owner since has absolutely loved living so close to the lake! Just the 200' lot and concrete seawall is worth the price! Present owners had preliminary plans to expand the second floor of the home, to include three full bedrooms and three baths. There is a detached two car garage with a one bedroom guest cottage below, perfect for visiting friends and relatives. If you have grand plans, there is the option to purchase the adjoining property to the east, adding an additional 100' of shoreline on Lake Superior in the heart of the city of Duluth! The current owners are relocating to the east coast and are providing a very special opportunity to own an incredible piece of history and Lake Superior shoreline!
