Overview

This property is a well-maintained, year-round road-access homesite on the south shore of Fall Lake. The land has been brushed and includes a gradual elevation toward the water, with surveyed improvements and choice of building sites. The parcel totals 2.8 wooded acres and offers water views across the lake. It also features power at the road and a site that has been reviewed for septic, supporting residential development. Water access is complemented by 205 feet of excellent swimming shoreline.

Located in Ely, Minnesota on Fall Lake in the Boundary Waters region, the setting offers outdoor recreation right at the water’s edge. The remarks note walking distance to Kawishiwi Falls and access by boat into the BWCA approximately 2 miles from the property, with Fall Lake connecting to additional waters in the larger network.

For buyers looking to build a year-round cabin or primary residence, this site provides the basic development elements highlighted in the materials: surveyed land, power available at the road, and a septic-reviewed location. The combination of wooded privacy, substantial shoreline frontage, and buildable options supports a range of home planning on a level-to-water grading profile.
