Wooded 4.3-Acre Homestead with Creek & City Sewer Access

Opportunity knocks on the outskirts of Duluth! This rare and incredibly versatile 4.3-acre property offers a combination that’s hard to find—true privacy, natural beauty, and the convenience of city sewer connectivity already available at the street, making the building process far more streamlined for your future home or retreat.

The land itself is a nature lover’s dream. A diagonal creek meanders through the acreage, adding charm, movement, and a serene soundscape year-round. The rolling topography gives the property a dynamic feel, offering natural elevation changes ideal for unique architectural features such as walkout designs, large picture windows, or tiered outdoor spaces.

If this is part of your vision, be sure to consult your builder about the best placement for maximizing sightlines.

Despite the quiet, wooded setting, you won’t sacrifice convenience. The property is situated between E Superior St and the Hwy 61 Expressway, placing you within minutes of shopping, dining, trail systems, and Duluth’s best amenities. Electricity is nearby, and a private well will be required, giving you the flexibility to design your utilities to suit your needs.
