Inside the One-of-a-Kind $2-Million Masterpiece in Rochester, MN

Every now and then, a home hits the market that makes you stop scrolling, and this is absolutely one of those places. Listed for $2 million, this Rochester property isn’t your typical Minnesota house. It’s modern, bold, and unlike anything else around.

According to the listing, the home is inspired by the iconic German architect Mies van der Rohe and takes “less is more” to an entirely new level. With clean lines, open spaces, and a perfect balance of stone, copper, and wood, there's a sleek yet surprisingly warm feel. It’s modern, minimal, and incredibly peaceful - like living inside a work of art.

Originally remodeled to accommodate hospice care, the structure’s thoughtful design remains untouched, preserving its architectural integrity. Today, it’s listed as a single-family home, although with nearly 7,000 square feet, 10 bedrooms, and 6 bathrooms, it’s more like a family compound.

Set on almost nine acres in Rochester’s Weatherhills neighborhood, the property comes with its own pond, walking path, and views that make you forget you’re anywhere near the city.

You’ll find details throughout that reflect Mies van der Rohe’s timeless vision of simplicity, function, and art all working together. This isn’t just a house, it’s an architectural masterpiece waiting for someone to write its next chapter.
