c.1903 North Dakota Affordable Home For Sale Under $88K

OHU50K Notes $87,700

This affordable home for sale in North Dakota is believed to be the first home built in this small town of 322 residents in the heart of the state. I am wondering if it was the home of the town’s founder, William Henderson McClusky.  Back then, it was a Victorian, but the interior was likely stripped of its turn-of-the-century charm about the same time the wrap-around porch was removed. (see photo at bottom of page). Still, it is a great house for the money. We have seen it before, but it has now been substantially reduced in price.

Realtor Comments

Price reduced. If you have been looking for a home with CHARM, CLASS and CHARACTER, and all of the benefits of small town living look no further! It is believed that this is the first home built in McClusky in approximately 1903 (tax records say 1916). You will love the woodwork and seller believes that there is hardwood under most of the carpets on the main floor and upstairs! The main floor offers a large kitchen with great work space, main floor laundry room with storage, large living room, full bath with newer tub and surround, plus 2 roomy bedrooms!

Upper Level

The upper level has 2 additional large bedrooms and a 3/4 bath!

Basement

The basement level has a finished room but is mostly unfinished and is used for storage. You will love spending time on the beautiful front porch and in the private fenced yard.

Location

 

This affordable home is in McClusky, a small town situated in Sheridan County in the central part of the state. As of my knowledge cutoff in September 2021, McClusky had a population of around 400 people.

McClusky is known for its rural and agricultural character, with farming and ranching being important economic activities in the area. The town provides essential services to the local community, including a school, post office, and a few businesses catering to the needs of residents.

In terms of attractions, McClusky is close to several natural features and recreational areas. Nearby is the McClusky Canal, a man-made waterway that diverts water from Lake Audubon for irrigation purposes. This canal provides opportunities for fishing and boating.

Per Wikipedia, ” In 1902, in anticipation of the Northern Pacific Railroad moving westward from Denhoff, William Henderson McClusky purchased sections of land west of the town’s present area. He hoped it would become a railroad town site, and gave the site his own name.”
