Description
Opportunities to find larger vacant parcels within the City of Duluth are limited, and this ±1.39-acre wooded property offers a combination of privacy, mature timber, and direct access to outdoor recreation while remaining close to city amenities. Located near the base of Spirit Mountain, this property provides a natural setting with established trees, rolling terrain, and neighboring public land that expands the surrounding open space. The land consists entirely of high ground with a slope from NW to SE, creating a landscape that may offer flexibility for future development, subject to applicable zoning, permitting, and buyer verification. Mature timber covers the property, including an impressive, mature white pine that serves as a defining natural feature. The current owner has also cleared a trail and nice opening into the interior of the property, making it easier to explore the land and appreciate its setting. One of the most notable characteristics of this parcel is its location adjacent to county tax-forfeit land along the entire northern boundary. This neighboring public land provides an added sense of openness without private development immediately behind the property. The northern boundary is also adjacent to the DWP Trail and the Spirit Mountain Duluth Traverse trail system, offering convenient access to miles of hiking, mountain biking, walking, and year-round outdoor recreation. Spirit Mountain's ski slopes, lift-served mountain biking, hiking, and seasonal activities are all located nearby, making this property well positioned for those who enjoy spending time outdoors. Situated on a dead-end road, the property experiences limited traffic while remaining within the city limits. The setting provides a balance between accessibility and privacy, with shopping, dining, schools, healthcare, and other daily conveniences available within a short drive. The parcel's size is another distinguishing feature. At approximately 1.39 acres, it is significantly larger than many residential lots found within the city and Norton Park neighborhood, providing additional space for a variety of potential site layouts, outdoor living areas, or preservation of the existing wooded character. Buyers interested in constructing a residence should conduct their own due diligence regarding zoning requirements, utility availability, access, permitting, and any other development considerations. Whether your plans include exploring future residential development possibilities or simply owning a wooded parcel in a highly desirable outdoor recreation area, this property offers an opportunity to own a sizeable tract in a location where larger vacant parcels are increasingly difficult to find.
