About this home

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.
