Story-and-a-Half Homes for Sale in Moorhead, MN

Story-and-a-half homes are one of the most affordable single-family options in Moorhead, and they carry the character of the city's older, established neighborhoods. The layout — a full main floor plus a partial upper level tucked under a sloped, dormered roof — often includes a main-floor bedroom, with additional bedrooms or a bonus room upstairs. Most of Moorhead's story-and-a-half inventory sits in the established neighborhoods near Concordia College, MSUM, and the older central and south sections of the city. These are classic Cape Cod and bungalow homes — hardwood floors, built-ins, mature lots — that appeal to first-time buyers, renovators, and anyone who wants Minnesota residency without a premium price. Value is the draw. Moorhead story-and-a-half homes commonly run from around $150,000 to the high $300s, with the median near $240,000 — among the most affordable single-family homes in the metro. Buyers stay minutes from Fargo employment via US-10 and I-94 while keeping Minnesota schools and a quieter pace. A couple of practical notes: the upstairs sloped ceilings (knee walls) make cozy bedrooms but reduce usable floor area, so measure for larger furniture. Many of these homes are older — factor in the age of the roof, windows, and mechanicals, and we'll help you read the inspection.
