Built in 1909, this remarkable Endion residence blends the timeless character of an early Duluth home with substantial modern improvements, creating a rare balance of history and contemporary comfort.
The grand entry, open staircase, 12-foot ceilings, quarter-sawn oak floors, natural woodwork, and formal living and dining rooms preserve the home’s distinctive early-20th-century character. A wood-burning Vermont Castings stove, locally sourced tile hearth, and custom oak mantel add warmth and craftsmanship to the main living space.
The kitchen introduces modern luxury with a Wolf range, quartz countertops, and a vented hood, while five bedrooms span three floors, including a private third-floor primary suite with a newly added full bath, radiant floor heat, cork flooring, and dedicated office space.
More than $70,000 has reportedly been invested in behind-the-scenes improvements, including updated electrical and plumbing systems, a high-efficiency Navien combination boiler, new sump system, and Mitsubishi mini-splits providing cooling and backup heat throughout the home. The full stone lower level is now dry and functional, offering storage, laundry, a three-quarter bath, and workshop space.
Outside, the 0.34-acre double lot features a fenced backyard and mature maples, oaks, and firs, complemented by a detached two-car garage. Set in Eastern Endion near the Congdon border, the property offers convenient access to schools, Longview Tennis Courts, the Lakewalk, downtown Duluth, and area hospitals.
For a buyer who values historic architecture but wants the difficult modernization work already accomplished, this is an opportunity to inherit the soul of a 1909 Duluth home while enjoying the confidence, comfort, and functionality of a thoroughly renewed residence.
