About 12957 W Ridge Road
Exquisite Year-Round Log Home Retreat on 4 Wooded Acres. Priced below appraisal value. Set on 4 private, wooded acres just outside Ely. This finished log home is a rare combination of year-round comfort and true multi-purpose space — the kind of property that's hard to find and even harder to replace. The main log home offers a private primary suite plus a loft for additional sleeping space, warm-tile floors in the kitchen and bath, and the timeless character only a real log home delivers. But the real story here is everything around it: a heated two-car garage with two separate workshops — ideal for woodworking, mechanics, fabrication, or serious hobbyists —topped by a fully finished upper level with three additional bedrooms and a half bath. Altogether, this property offers flexible living and sleeping space for extended family, guests, or multi-generational living, all while keeping the main home private and quiet. Whether you need serious workshop space, room for a growing or visiting family, or simply want elbow room and privacy just minutes from Ely's lakes, trails, and the Boundary Waters, this property delivers.
