For thelist price of just under $1.8 million, you can become the new owner of the Musial's home, built in 1962. (More than one account say that was a banner year for Stan The Man).

What's it like inside? Realtor.comdescribes it as a "traditional mid-century with European flair" and says that it "appears that not much has changed since that time."
