The two-story, 1,244-square-foot Minneapolis home looks relatively non-descript. However, fans may recognize it as the Kid’s house in 1984's “Purple Rain,” late pop icon Prince’s semi-autobiographical film.

Built in 1913, the 3-bedroom home is listed for $127,789, according to Realtor.com, and was last sold in 2015 for $117,000.
