The Largest Log Cabin In America Is Dirt Cheap Yet Buyers Are Keeping Their Distance
"They don’t build lodges like that anymore, with that type of craftsmanship," said listing agent Chase Erickson, referring to the largest log cabin in America. "The property is only about 20 minutes north of Marquette, Michigan. You do feel secluded on the property, but you’re only 20 minutes from town." It's a perfect place to live — yet no one's buying. That's because buyers aren't blind to the one big catch.
The Granot Loma Log Cabin
Situated on the shores of Lake Superior, the Granot Loma log cabin in Marquette, Michigan, was initially on the market for $40 million, but then the owner slashed the price in half! He had his reasons, but people had to know — was there something wrong with it?
Printed Front and Center
After all, for $20 million, you can be the proud owner of this amazing getaway summer home that sits on 5,180 acres of property! The name, Granot Loma, is even printed on the tiled roof so everyone knows they're entering a prominent home.
Louis's Vision
The house was built in 1923 by a man named Louis G. Kaufman. The financier designed, named, and constructed it himself. Kaufman also had a hand in the founding of General Motors, where he worked for 20 years.
National Register of Historic Places
In April 1991, the Granot Loma was placed on the National Register of Historic Places. So you wouldn't only be purchasing a lovely home, but you'd be investing in an important part of history, as well! But what does it look like on the inside?
