About this home

This 1959 rambler in Brooklyn Center looks modest from the street, but it's a true main-level layout: all three bedrooms, the living room, dining area, kitchen, and a full bathroom are on one floor, so there are no stairs standing between you and everyday life, and no bedrooms scattered across two levels. Downstairs, the finished lower level isn't an afterthought—it's a genuine second living zone, with a family room and a separate flex room that works as a playroom, office, hobby space, or home gym, plus a 3/4 bathroom with a shower. Add it up and you get 1,634 total finished square feet and two bathrooms—a full bath on the main level and a 3/4 bath downstairs—more usable space than most ramblers offer at this price. Outside, there's a wide front yard, a spacious backyard, and mature trees—room to garden, play, have a fire pit, or just have some breathing room between you and the neighbors. There's a detached 2-car garage off a long driveway, with enough extra parking for guests and enough garage depth for real storage or a workshop, not just two tight parking spots. The big-ticket practical items have already been handled, too: a new tub surround, a newer furnace and AC, a new garage door, and added attic insulation—none of it glamorous, all of it expensive to put off until later. The home sits close to West Palmer Park and Palmer Lake, with walking trails nearby and a real neighborhood feel, in the Osseo School District. If you've been looking for one-level living with a finished lower level that actually functions as living space, a two-car garage, and a yard with some room to breathe, this one's worth a walk-through.

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.
