Pick up Santa’s North Pole digs for less than a city studio

Zillow has got the details on the latest listings from Kris Kringle himself

You may have imagined Mr. and Mrs. Claus living it up in a North Pole palace. But it turns out that his digs are much more modest. According to Zillow, he’s asking just $656,957 for his famed home. Maybe he is looking to upgrade?

“A toy-lover’s paradise nestled on 25 idyllic acres at the North Pole – perfect for spirited reindeer games,” the Zillow listing reads. “The home, constructed in the 1800s of gorgeous old-growth timber logged on site, is steeped in Old World charm but offers modern-day amenities, thanks to a 2013 renovation.”

Unsurprisingly, Ole St. Nick’s spread is loaded with amenities, including a floor-to-ceiling river rock fireplace (for roasting chestnuts), a gourmet kitchen “boasting an oven 12 different cookie settings,” boughs of holly deck the hall, a master bedroom and a queen suite.
