    What's special

    Functional layoutAmple natural lightGenerous living spacesTwo spacious units
    Nestled on one of the most charming, tree-lined streets in the heart of St. Paul's sought-after Macalester-Groveland neighborhood, this substantial duplex is a turnkey investor's dream. Just steps from Macalester College, this property checks every box — strong rents, virtually zero vacancy, and a location that practically markets itself. The duplex offers a combined 8 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms across two spacious units, providing flexible configurations ideal for student housing, young professionals, or a mix of both. Each unit features generous living spaces, ample natural light, and a functional layout that tenants love. The quiet, residential street strikes the perfect balance — peaceful enough to feel like home, yet walkable to campus, Grand Avenue's restaurants and shops, and easy freeway access. The numbers speak for themselves: this property has a proven track record of renting within days of listing and maintaining near-100% occupancy year after year. With Macalester's consistent enrollment and the perpetual demand for quality housing in this corridor, you're not just buying a property — you're buying a reliable income stream in one of St. Paul's most stable rental markets. Whether you're an experienced investor looking to expand your portfolio or a savvy first-time buyer seeking a high-performing asset, this duplex delivers the cash flow, location, and peace of mind you've been searching for. Opportunities like this don't last — and in this neighborhood, everyone already knows it.
