About this home

If you're looking for a truly move-in-ready home in Richfield, look no further! Thoughtfully renovated from top to bottom, this impressive 5-bedroom, 2-bath home offers the perfect combination of modern updates, functional living space, and long-term peace of mind. With three bedrooms on the main level, two additional bedrooms (or office space!) in the finished lower level, and two spacious living areas, there's plenty of room for everyone to spread out and enjoy. Outside, you'll love the corner lot with a large, flat fenced-in backyard, new concrete patio, and a 2 car garage. The extensive list of improvements completed within the last 5 years means the heavy lifting has already been done for you. Highlights include a fully remodeled kitchen featuring new cabinetry, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, updated electrical, walk-in pantry, and new fixtures. The lower level was professionally finished to add two bedrooms with egress windows, a full bathroom, an additional electrical panel, and a large storage room. The main-floor bathroom has also been completely updated. Additional improvements for added peace of mind include a new roof, siding, furnace, water heater, oversized gutters, garage door and opener, nearly all new windows, refinished hardwood floors, fresh paint throughout, a red cedar privacy fence, new exterior doors, and more. You can't beat the location either: blocks away from Centennial, STEM, and RDLS Elementary schools, walkable parks, and minutes from the Mall of America, the airport, south Minneapolis, and countless shops and restaurants. The only thing missing is you - welcome home!

How SODL buyer credits work

When you buy with SODL, the brokerage charges a flat $3,000 platform fee at closing. The remaining buyer-side commission (typically 3% of the purchase price) is credited directly back to you at closing, reducing the cash you bring to the table.

  • Tour homes with SODL’s flexible showing network
  • Submit offers and manage your transaction through the platform
  • Keep more money at closing through transparent flat-fee pricing

A clear, modern way to buy with expert guidance and meaningful savings.
