The parcel features multiple areas of high ground, a recently installed gravel approach and driveway, direct access to a large block of adjoining public land, and a recently cleared trail system extending to the Lester River at the back of the property. One of the property's most notable attributes is its direct adjacency to approximately 2,565 acres of county tax-forfeited and state-owned land. This expansive public acreage provides nearby opportunities for hiking, wildlife observation, hunting where permitted, and exploring northern Minnesota's natural landscape. The property's location near the Superior Hiking Trail and the C.J. Ramstad/North Shore State Snowmobile Trail further enhances year-round recreational opportunities. The Lester River flows through the rear portion of the property, adding both scenic appeal and natural diversity. Designated as a trout stream, the river contributes to the property's outdoor character and supports a variety of wildlife habitats. Deer, bear, grouse, and numerous other wildlife species are commonly found in the area. Combined with the adjoining public lands and surrounding forest habitat, the property offers excellent opportunities for wildlife observation and outdoor recreation. A notable improvement to the property is the trail that sellers have cleared from the front of the parcel all the way to the Lester River and the back property line. This trail provides convenient access throughout much of the property, making it easier to explore the land, access the river corridor, observe wildlife, and enjoy the property's natural features. Access improvements are already in place, including a recently installed gravel approach and driveway, providing a practical starting point for future use and enjoyment of the property. Seller-provided records indicate documentation dating back to 1979 showing that a variance was granted for the property. Buyers are encouraged to independently verify all zoning, permitting, building, land use, and development matters with the appropriate governmental authorities. Despite its private setting, the property remains conveniently located near a wide range of services and amenities. The Woodland neighborhood of Duluth is approximately six miles away and offers access to shopping, dining, healthcare facilities, educational institutions, and other daily conveniences. Hartley Nature Center, located approximately 6.5 miles from the property, provides additional opportunities for hiking, environmental education, and outdoor recreation. The surrounding region is well known for its abundance of recreational opportunities. Lake Superior and its tributary streams are only minutes away, while numerous inland lakes throughout the area provide opportunities for fishing, boating, paddling, and other outdoor activities. Nearby public trail systems create additional opportunities for hiking, snowmobiling, and exploring the Northland throughout every season. Properties in Rice Lake Township that offer high-ground terrain, Lester River frontage, direct adjacency to thousands of acres of public land, an established trail leading to the river, existing driveway improvements, and close proximity to Duluth are not commonly available. Whether your interests include outdoor recreation, enjoying the natural setting, or exploring future building possibilities subject to verification and approvals, this property presents a rare combination of location, accessibility, and natural features in St. Louis County.
