What's around 505 Robert Street

About this property

Welcome to 505 Robert Road in Ostrander, MN, where your dream project awaits in what was once a bustling schoolhouse! This historic brick building, with its own apple trees gracing the front yard, is ready to be transformed into whatever your heart desires—whether that's a car/boat collector's paradise, a woodworking wonderland, storage or a creative space for your small business. Spanning an impressive 9,772 square feet and nestled on 4.69 acres of land, this property offers a blank canvas for your grand ideas. And if you’ve ever dreamed of living where you work, you’re in luck—the principal’s office has been converted into living quarters with a bedroom, bathroom, living room, and kitchen. But that’s not all! The building comes with its own gym, complete with a basketball hoop and stage—perfect for practicing your free throws or hosting a play. The gym even boasts a newer roof, so you're covered there. There's also a former school cafeteria and workshop, with classrooms that can be repurposed for whatever you can imagine. For the car enthusiast or collector, several oversized garage doors are in working condition, just waiting for your prized possessions to roll in. The previous owner used the space to store cars and collectibles, and the current owner has done their best to clear it out, though it still needs some "Tender Loving Care", cleaning and work. The building has four garage doors two are 16" x 11". Located just 15 minutes from Rochester Airport and 30 miles from Rochester, MN, this property offers both seclusion and convenience. Yes, it needs some love, but with the right vision, you can bring this building back to its former glory—and maybe even pick the apples from your very own apple trees out front and bake a few pies!
