Prime Uptown/Whittier duplex offering an ideal combination of location, character and income potential. Situated in one of Minneapolis’ most walkable neighborhoods, just steps from Lyndale Avenue restaurants, coffee shops, shopping and nightlife, with convenient access to downtown, Lake of the Isles, Bde Maka Ska and public transit.
This classic 1918 duplex offers approximately 2,211 square feet, hardwood floors and the charm of original Minneapolis architecture. An excellent opportunity for investors or owner occupants. Live in one unit and rent the other to help offset monthly housing costs. The property has a long history as a rental and is well positioned in a high demand rental area near downtown employers, hospitals, universities and entertainment.
Four off-street parking spaces add significant convenience and value for both residents and tenants. Major exterior improvements include a new roof and new siding in 2024. The manageable building and lot size make this an appealing alternative to larger multifamily properties. Upper unit is currently leased through May 31, 2027. A great opportunity to own a character filled duplex in the heart of Uptown/Whittier with both lifestyle and income potential.
