Located in the West Duluth neighborhood of Duluth, MN, this three-bedroom, one-bathroom single-story home offers a comfortable and characterful living experience. Throughout the space, light hardwood floors and soft gray walls create a clean, consistent aesthetic, while rich wood window trim adds warmth and a nod to the building's historic character. The open living area features a classic pendant light fixture and large wood-framed windows that flood the room with natural light and provide views of the surrounding neighborhood. Baseboard heating runs beneath the windows in several rooms, ensuring year-round comfort. The kitchen is well-appointed with warm wood cabinetry, white countertops, a double sink, stainless steel refrigerator with ice maker, dishwasher, and an electric range. Diamond-paned windows lend the kitchen a distinctive, timeless charm. The three bedrooms vary in layout and character. The primary bedroom offers generous proportions, while one standout bedroom features soaring ceilings, a built-in chalkboard with wood trim — a unique architectural detail — and a double closet. Each bedroom benefits from natural light through large wood-trimmed windows. The bathroom is neatly finished with a white vanity, granite-style countertop, mirror with overhead lighting, and tile flooring. A connecting hallway ties the layout together efficiently.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
