Overview

Description

Tucked away in a peaceful country setting just minutes from Owatonna, this thoughtfully cared-for rambler offers a rare opportunity to step into a home where exceptional care has been taken. With 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and main-floor laundry, this home welcomes you with a comfortable, functional layout and a sense of warmth the moment you walk through the door. The condition is truly remarkable, offering a level of pride in ownership that is increasingly hard to find. The unfinished basement provides an opportunity to expand the living space and build equity over time. Set on a flat, open acre with immaculate landscaping, the property feels both private and full of possibility, with space to expand, build, or simply enjoy the quiet surroundings. The attached two-car garage adds everyday convenience, while the location offers the perfect balance of country living with quick access to Owatonna, the new high school, and the fairgrounds. Homes like this don’t come along often—where character, care, and setting come together so effortlessly. A truly special property, ready for its next chapter.
