South Shore Real Estate Sales, July 2025

July sales on the South Shore were somewhat slow again last month, which is  comparable to the rest of the year so far. 

No single family homes sold in Port Wing, but otherwise, three single family homes sold between Herbster and Corny. 

On Bark Point Rd in Herbster, a sweet little A-frame cabin with a bevy of modern amenities, not to mention 220 feet of sandy Lake Superior beach frontage, sold for $580,000. Initially on the market for $650,000, this home sat on the market for nearly one year, 322 days to be exact, but finally changed owners last month. Of note: the seller of this property donated 50% of the sale’s proceeds to charity! 

In Corny, a modest but well maintained home on Elm Street sold quickly, in 8 days. At $249,900, it’s a reasonable price for a home in Cornucopia, especially one in town—they don’t hit the market that often. Down 13 a bit between Corny and Herbster, a three bed, 2 bath home on West Rd sold, one also with Lake Superior frontage, 350 feet on Bark Bay. Located close to the slough, this location’s optimal. The home, a little dated, sat on the market for over one year, 368 days, which is understandable given its price point, initially $510,000; it sold, however, for $450,000. 

Landwise, a nearly 1 acre lot on Cnty C in town sold for $55,000 in 10 days; and a 2 acre building site in Sawgrass on Meadow Tr sold for $57,000 after having sat on the market for a whopping 749 days.
