About 1301 Carlton Avenue
Situated on a corner lot in Cloquet, this 3 bedroom/1 bath traditional Craftsman Bungalow is in a convenient location walking distance to schools, parks, and the public library. The century-old home has preserved many of its quality components, including original pine wood floors throughout, unpainted wood trim, and stained-glass windows. Enter through the enclosed front porch/sunroom, with new front steps built in 2025. The front hallway has original wooden pillars leading into the cozy living room, which is partially lined with functional built-ins. The spacious eat-in kitchen is filled with oak cabinets, vintage tile on the floor and countertops, and newerappliances. Pass by the breakfast bar to enter the formal dining room, with beautiful dark wood trim, built-in corner hutch, and original stained-glass windows. The second level of the home has three bedrooms and full bathroom. Each bedroom has a walk-in closet, and the master bedroom features a door out to the balcony, overlooking the backyard – perfect for enjoying some peace and quiet! A sliding glass door leads from the kitchen to the back deck – an expansive build with space to grill, eat, and lounge. An additional lower deck makes a great spot for a hot tub or above ground pool! The fully-fenced backyard also has a playset, firepit, perennial gardens, lilac bushes, and a raspberry patch that produces bountifully. The home has a full, unfinished basement that offers storage space and room to expand; there is also a workbench, laundry, and utilities. The energy-efficient boiler was newly installed in 2017, along with a new vent system, water heater, and updated plumbing. The attic was insulated with 18” of cellulose in 2020, adding to the energy efficiency of the home. The attached one-stall garage has access to the backyard and gives more storage space and off-street parking. The front yard has perennial gardens, and the pine and tamarack trees give the front of the home privacy. Towering maple trees line the street on the west side of the property, offering the backyard plenty of shade during the summer heat. This home has been pre-inspected and is being sold as-is. Give this solid home a refresh and make it your own!
