Rare opportunity on Long Lake - one of northeastern Minnesota's most private lakes with zero public boat access. This 3,307 sq ft slab-on-grade home sits on 2.1 wooded acres with 250 feet of pristine shoreline. Original 1989 build was transformed by a substantial 2018 addition, resulting in a thoughtfully designed 5-bedroom, 3-bath home. The renovated kitchen features custom white hickory cabinetry, quartz countertops, and stainless appliances, complemented by separate living and family rooms - generous, flexible space that never feels crowded. A wood-burning fireplace with Acucraft blower system and lifetime-guaranteed stainless chimney liner anchors the living space - built for serious Northwoods winters - with lake views from many living spaces. Step outside to multiple patios designed for outdoor living at every hour of the day. Direct water access via a private boat launch means no trailering to a public ramp. Two detached garages with 6 total stalls accommodate boats, watercraft, ATVs, snowmobiles, and vehicles alike. One garage also houses a lakeside sauna. Multiple heating systems - see property supplement. Long Lake spans 209 acres, reaches 51 feet at its deepest, and supports exceptional fishing - Walleye, Northern Pike, Largemouth Bass, Crappie, and Bluegill. With fewer than 120 properties on the entire shoreline and no public access, the water here stays quiet. That's increasingly rare and impossible to replicate. An optional lake association is available - the association stocks the lake and holds annual gatherings. Located 7 miles east of Cotton off County Road 52. Duluth approx. 45 minutes. Twin Cities approx. 3 hours.
