'Mary Tyler Moore House' Is Up for Sale
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) - The "Mary Tyler Moore House" is up for sale with an asking price of nearly $1.7 million.
The five-bedroom, six-bath Victorian home quietly went on the market in early March, but a "For Sale" sign only recently appeared on its lawn.
Although actress Mary Tyler Moore never set foot in the house during the show's production, exterior shots of the 112-year-old home were used in "The Mary Tyler Moore Show" during the show's run in the 1970s. The fictional character Mary Richards lived in a third-floor apartment. Her wacky neighbor was Rhoda Morgenstern.
The home's owners did not release a reason for selling. They have owned the house since 1988.
Some previous owners in the early 1970s became so weary of uninvited guests that they stretched a banner saying "Impeach Nixon" outside to discourage television crews from taking additional exterior shots.
