A quarter of a million dollars has a lot of range when it comes to purchasing a home. That amount can buy anything from a 12 bedroom brick and brownstone home in Harrisburg, Pa. to a 925-square foot house in Pittsburg, a suburb of San Francisco.
Realtor.com found the nine best houses across the nation that can be had for $250,000, a price a little lower than the national median.
Included are a bungalow in Houston, a stone mansion in Kansas City, Mo., and a brick ranch in Charleston, S.C.
A three bedroom home in Tacoma, Wash., is a good option for first-time buyers.
Open and airy, this three-bedroom home would make a perfect place for a family getting started in the Pacific Northwest. It comes with a large bonus room, bamboo flooring, and fresh paint.
