The Perfect Family Home for Under $500k?

If you want space for kids to run around and get tired, a hill to roll down and race back up, and one of Rochester Minnesota's best sledding hills to sled down, this yellow shuttered home has location, location, location! Plus, you're just a few blocks away from a convenience store so when they're a little older, they can run to get Dorito's for you.

Cozy Nights In Front of the Family Room Fireplace

The home has two fireplaces, one in the family room, and one in the living room. Both are wood burning, so they'll take a little bit of work, but it's the way to go on a snowy January night with cocoa (or something stronger) in your mug.

Pill Hill Starter Home Has Best Sledding Hill in Town in Its Back Yard

Why did I call this a Pill Hill Starter Home? Because the asking price is less than $500,000. In that neighborhood, that's a starter home..

Location, location, location...this 5 bed/3 bath home is located in the famed "Pill Hill" district just minutes away from Hwy 52 and the downtown area.

This charming home comes with a second parcel that borders up to the Mayo Clinic/St Mary's Campus.
With a three-tiered backyard, one could add a large firepit, a swimming pool, or a nice storage shed.
With distinct beauty, this home could be used as an Airbnb, a rental or just as a large single-family home!
There is so much potential with this home...as the sky is the limit.

One other thing about the home, it sold 20 years ago this month for $183,000, then again in June of 2011 for $335,000, then it was rented out (looks like for just under $700/month...what a deal, wish I'd known that!).
