A Beautiful Home with Historic Character:
The Gilliat House is filled with the charm you would expect from a home with more than a century of history, while still offering the functionality and comfort of a modern home.
Large windows bring natural light throughout the house, creating bright and welcoming spaces throughout the day. The home offers several distinct areas to relax, work, gather, or simply enjoy a quiet evening.
The living room is a comfortable gathering space with a fireplace, making it a cozy place to unwind after a day of work, exploring Duluth, or enjoying the outdoors.
One of the highlights of the home is the sunroom, where windows surround the space with natural light. The sunroom also features its own fireplace, creating a peaceful spot to enjoy your morning coffee, read a book, work remotely, or relax in the evening.
The dining room provides an elegant space for meals and conversation, whether you are enjoying a quick breakfast before work or sitting down for a longer dinner at home.
Fully Stocked Kitchen:
The kitchen is designed to make longer stays easy and comfortable. It is fully stocked with the cookware, dishes, utensils, and kitchen essentials you need to prepare meals at home.
Whether you are making a quick breakfast, packing lunch for work, or preparing a full dinner, you will have the space and supplies to make the kitchen feel like your own.
The kitchen connects naturally with the rest of the home, making it easy to cook while still being part of the activity.
Three Comfortable Bedrooms:
The Gilliat House has three bedrooms with sleeping arrangements for a variety of guests:
Bedroom 1: Full Bed
The primary bedroom features a comfortable full-size bed and a window overlooking the backyard. It offers a peaceful and private space to settle in for an extended stay.
Bedroom 2: Queen Bed
The second bedroom features a comfortable queen-size bed and provides another spacious sleeping area with plenty of natural light.
Bedroom 3: Twin Bed
The third bedroom features a twin-size bed and is a great option for an individual guest, child, or anyone who prefers a separate sleeping space.
The three-bedroom layout provides flexibility for couples, families, coworkers, traveling professionals, or other groups staying in Duluth for an extended period.
Two Full Bathrooms:
The home offers two bathrooms, making longer stays especially convenient.
Upstairs Bathroom:
The main upstairs bathroom features a shower and bathtub combination, along with bright, clean finishes and plenty of natural light.
Basement Bathroom:
The finished basement includes a second bathroom with a shower, providing additional convenience and privacy for guests staying in the home.
Basement:
The basement adds another entire area for relaxing and spending time.
The basement includes a comfortable TV room, giving guests a separate place to watch movies, relax, or enjoy some downtime away from the main living areas.
The basement also includes the home's second bathroom and laundry area, making it particularly convenient for 30+ day stays.
Laundry:
A dedicated laundry area is available in the basement, giving guests the convenience of doing laundry right at home during their extended stay.
For guests staying for a month or longer, having laundry facilities on-site makes everyday living much easier and eliminates the need to rely on a laundromat.
Parking Pad & Two-Stall Garage:
The Gilliat House offers plenty of convenient off-street parking for extended-stay guests. The property includes a private parking pad as well as a two-stall detached garage, providing ample space for multiple vehicles.
The garage offers additional protection from the elements during snowy Duluth winters and provides convenient covered parking throughout your stay.
Outdoor Space & Gardens:
Outside, The Gilliat House offers beautiful gardens, a nice sized yard, and a peaceful residential setting.
The outdoor areas provide a quiet place to enjoy a cup of coffee, read, relax, or spend time outside.
The established landscaping and gardens add to the home's historic character and create a welcoming atmosphere throughout the property.
A Peaceful Duluth Neighborhood:
The Gilliat House is located in Lakeside, a peaceful residential neighborhood in Duluth, providing a comfortable setting for an extended stay.
Rather than feeling like a typical short-term rental, the home is designed to give you the experience of actually living in Duluth. You can settle into the neighborhood, establish a routine, cook meals at home, work remotely, enjoy the gardens, and have comfortable spaces to relax at the end of the day.
The home is also a convenient base for experiencing everything the Duluth area has to offer, from Lake Superior and outdoor recreation to local restaurants, shops, universities, medical facilities, and downtown Duluth.

It can be a great fit for:
• Traveling professionals
• Visiting professors and university faculty
• Medical professionals and hospital staff
• Relocation stays
• Extended business assignments
• Families between homes
• Guests working in Duluth for several weeks or months
