About this home

Well-cared-for, one-owner 3-bedroom home on just under 3 acres minutes from Babbitt and Birch Lake public water access. Hardwood floors, newer windows, a newer boiler, main-floor laundry, and a walkout basement offer comfortable year-round living. Outside is where this property really shines, with a 30x40 heated garage/workshop, RV parking shed, barn, gardens, multiple outdoor spaces, and trails winding through the wooded property. Wildlife is abundant, including deer, grouse, fox, and the occasional bear. Surrounded by great fishing lakes, ATV/UTV trails, Ely shopping and dining, and easy access to the BWCA, this is a great opportunity to enjoy the space, recreation, and Northwoods lifestyle Northern Minnesota is known for.

How SODL buyer credits work

When you buy with SODL, the brokerage charges a flat $3,000 platform fee at closing. The remaining buyer-side commission (typically 3% of the purchase price) is credited directly back to you at closing, reducing the cash you bring to the table.

  • Tour homes with SODL’s flexible showing network
  • Submit offers and manage your transaction through the platform
  • Keep more money at closing through transparent flat-fee pricing

A clear, modern way to buy with expert guidance and meaningful savings.
