One-of-a-Kind Artisan Estate, rarely does a property redefine the standards of luxury and craftsmanship, but this one-owner estate does exactly that. Handcrafted by true Artisan and recognized by the Duluth Preservation Alliance, this custom 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home took four years of precise, meticulous construction to complete. It represents a level of thought, design, and care that simply cannot be matched. Exquisite Architectural Masterpiece. The 3BR/2BA residence is a showcase of museum-quality details and historic materials, curated and shaped by Doug McCorison himself: Historic Timbers: Hundreds-of-years-old Douglas Fir Timbers frame the interior spaces. Global Materials: Framing lumber was sourced directly from the Black Forest in Germany. Geometric Artistry: A striking round dining room serves as a central structural masterpiece. Exterior Excellence: Premium cedar siding is accented by custom redwood moldings and copper trim. Century-Grade Roof: Engineered to last with 80-year shingles, copper flashing, and copper gutters. A Fairy Tale Setting in the City Nestled on 2.34 private acres; the grounds offer total natural immersion while remaining right in town.
