  • Welcome to the world's largest log cabin: Wooden house on Lake Superior boasts 23 bedrooms, hosted celebrities including Fred Astaire and it could be yours for $40M

    ·         Granot Loma sits on near 5,000 acres of land in Marquette, Michigan

    ·         It was built in 1919 with the help of 400 Scandinavian workers

    ·         There are 13 buildings on the property, which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places 


    It has 23 bedrooms, 13 bathrooms and a farm that once milked 200 cows - but Granot Loma is still just a log cabin.

    The prized property that sits on Lake Superior in Marquette, Michigan, is listed on the National Register of Historic Places because its actually the largest log cabin in the world.

    And now it could be yours for the price of $40 million.  

    The price takes into account the headline house itself, as well as the 12 other buildings on the land, including a guest house with four apartments and a play house.

    'Granot Loma is one of the most spectacular pieces of property in the Upper Peninsula,' real estate agent Bob Sullivan told Michigan Live. 

     

    The home was built in 1919 by banker Louis Graveraet Kaufman. 

    Over 400 Scandinavian workers contributed to the project, with the wood logs brought in from Oregon for their quality.

    Over the years it has entertained many high-profile names, such as Fred Astaire, and there are rumors that Mohammed Ali tried to buy the site in the 1970s and turn it into a boxing camp.
