Great block, great condition, great rents, and a rare tuck-under two-stall garage that puts this duplex in a category of its own. Covered, attached parking for two is genuinely hard to find in North Minneapolis, and it's the kind of feature that keeps quality tenants in place and commands rents to match.
The property shows well, the numbers work from day one, and the lot gives you the space and curb appeal that makes people want to stay. This isn't a fix-it-first deal, it's a walk-in-and-hold. Great for an investor or an owner-occupant house hack. Rents at $1,200 and $1,300.
Strong block. Solid bones. Don't sleep on it. Come take a tour!
