What do you get when you combine a beautiful two-story and a wonderful, bright neighborhood? You get our featured home, 6196 60th Ave S.

The Home:

Corner, cut de sac lot with a three-stall garage! Unwind from a long day in the master bath, featuring a waterfall shower head and upgraded bath. The kitchen highlights granite countertops, a custom tile backsplash, and a walk-in pantry for plenty of storage. The finished basement offers plenty of space for friends and family, as well as a fifth bedroom! 

The Location:

This home is located in a prime location in the south Fargo neighborhood of Deer Creek. Deer Creek boasts wide walking paths, a soccer field, basketball court, playground, and much more! The newly built Deer Creek Elementary School sits on the north end and to the south, Horace Middle School and High School are in construction! You are a short drive away from several restaurants and shopping locals, not to mention 1-29 for a quick getaway to areas further down the road.
