184 County Rd 14

This could be the most spectacular privately owned land in Cook County. Situated on a slope 300-350 feet above Lake Superior, the views rival those at Pincushion Mountain. Except for about 200 linear feet, the whole perimeter of the 40 acres abuts county or federal land. The Superior Hiking Trail runs through the southeast corner of the parcel and there are numerous trails throughout leading to amazing lookouts, through mature forest or areas of fern and wildflower. Historically known as the Jagerhaus Bed and Breakfast, there is an opportunity now to create something new as a fire in 2023 resulted in the removal of the home. Property is a candidate for the new Cook County (ROSO) zoning overlay district allowing greater density with shared common land. Think smaller homes on lots in a more concentrated area with acres of wooded land to share. There is a lot of flexibility with home type per Cook County. The foundation of the former home remains along with a number of other buildings. There are areas of level terrain giving many options for building sites. The well is on the north side of the foundation. No information is available on the condition of the well nor septic system. Easements are in place for the private driveway across federal and county land. Visitors are required to be accompanied by a licensed real estate agent. Security cameras are present.
