About this home

This home has been refreshed throughout, featuring new flooring, new subfloor in main level bedroom & living room, updated trim, modern fixtures, a new toilet, and fresh paint, creating a clean and inviting interior ready for its next owner or occupant. Major mechanical systems were updated in 2024, including the furnace, central air conditioning, and water heater, providing peace of mind and improved efficiency. The heated garage adds year-round convenience and functionality, ideal for Minnesota winters and additional workspace or storage needs. Updates were completed in 2025 with comfort and practicality in mind, offering a move-in-ready opportunity. Situated in a quiet small-town setting, the property provides an excellent balance of community living and accessibility. It is conveniently located approximately 40 minutes from the Fargo–Moorhead area and about 20 minutes from Fergus Falls, making it a great option for those seeking a more relaxed setting while remaining within reasonable distance of larger employment, shopping, and entertainment hubs. This well-maintained property offers a solid opportunity for buyers or investors looking for quality updates, functional features, and a convenient regional location.

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.
