About this home

The one in Pill Hill! Tucked into this coveted Rochester neighborhood, 811 6th Street SW is a character-rich American Foursquare that blends historic charm with thoughtful modern updates just minutes from Mayo Clinic, Saint Marys Hospital, and downtown Rochester. Original hardwood floors, leaded-glass windows, rich built-ins, and an inviting enclosed front porch showcase the craftsmanship and architectural detail that make historic homes so enduringly appealing. Thoughtful owner-driven improvements throughout the home provide modern comfort while preserving its authenticity and character. The updated kitchen features polished marble countertops, soft-close cabinetry, newer appliances, updated fixtures, and abundant storage. Fresh interior paint, refreshed baths, updated mechanical systems, fiber internet, and a climate-controlled third-floor primary suite deliver everyday convenience without sacrificing the home's historic soul. Five bedrooms and thoughtfully arranged living spaces offer flexibility for changing needs, whether working from home, hosting guests, or simply enjoying room to spread out. The finished lower level provides additional space for recreation, hobbies, fitness, or a media retreat. Outside, the partially fenced backyard includes an in-ground pet containment system, while the detached garage offers alley access with documented expansion potential. City of Rochester improvements have expanded the alley to allow for limited resident parking along the alley to better accommodate homeowners. Recent exterior improvements include foundation tuckpointing, a new gutter, and the benefit of Rochester's completed municipal stormwater improvements serving the block. A 2024 four-corner survey conveys with the property. For those drawn to history and architecture, community,  and the energy of walkable downtown access, this is a rare opportunity to own a beautifully maintained home in one of Rochester's most established and beloved neighborhoods. The one with character. The one for self-expression. This could be your 1 of 1!

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.
