1500 Clearwater Rd, Saint Cloud, MN 56301

This property is a HUGE HOUSE, and has the BEST LAYOUT of ANY property that I have ever seen! Literally! This house reads like it has MORE square footage! The family that ends up here will thank their lucky stars!! This home is a 'hidden treasure'. It is the best deal, bar none, in this city. Why? Besides the garage, 3 bathrooms, and lots of extra space? Also close to restaurants, downtown, Highways 94 & 10 and SCSU facilities? Yeah! This well kept, solid house is SAFE and SECURE, within a short distance to SCSU locations, the stadium, and downtown shops, restaurants, and the river with hiking trails. Can you imagine: being a renter, with parking, storage, AND everything a short distance away? The staircase leads to 3 bedrooms + an office on the 2nd floor in this home. Some fences, and some trees on the driveway, and shrubs (lilacs) are on the east side behind the garage and the south side of the backyard too. Cameras are within a short distance to help you feel more safe on your short walk to the house after parking. The house is perfect, "re-done" to perfection, and there is plenty of room to spread out, facing Clearwater Rd. There's much more! It's LARGE!! No bones about it!! THIS is a decent, quiet, real home. We are looking for people that will love it, respect it, and live well in it. We check all references DILIGENTLY before renting, because the house is great and we protect it!

There is another full size bathroom on the second floor. The basement has a wine + utility closet. There is a "semi-finished" 3rd bathroom (3/4 bath) and shower, for "emergencies", plus "playrooms". This is an 8 foot ceiling height (cement block) throughout most of basement, not 7 feet as normal, so regular height and regular rooms! Lots of storage! THIS is a decent, quiet, real home.
