What buyers can pay for ramblers, bungalows and townhomes
Columbia Heights has a blend of ramblers, bungalows and split-level homes from the early to mid-1900s. Houses often sell between the upper $100,000s and the lower $500,000s. Townhomes and duplexes usually run from the lower $100,000s to the upper $400,000s. The area's prices tend to be on par with Fridley to the north but are much less expensive than places like Saint Anthony. “It is a more affordable inner ring suburb," says Joe Kasel, a Realtor with RE/MAX Results.
There are several bungalows throughout the city.
Ramblers are found throughout the area.

Interstate 694 runs north of town and can take drivers toward Saint Paul. That drive is about 15 miles, or 20-35 minutes.
