A Rare Opportunity to Own a Historic Minneapolis Masterpiece! Step into a truly one-of-a-kind 1925 estate, originally built by the Minneapolis Star Newspaper editor as his 'Entertainment' home. This architecturally stunning home blends timeless elegance with rare flexibility—offering the potential to be a grand single-family residence or a multi-family property. Over $200,000 in updates over the last 6 years! The main level exudes stately charm with classic architectural details that have stood the test of time. Upstairs, a completely updated & fully equipped in-law suite offers endless possibilities: Airbnb or retain it for multi-generational living or transform it into a luxurious primary suite.
The lower level boasts soaring 9-foot ceilings, a spacious workshop, and incredible potential for future expansion. A newer, top-of-the-line boiler system provides both radiant and in-floor heating for
year-round comfort and efficiency. While the home has already undergone substantial renovations, there’s still room to make your own mark.
Situated in one of Minneapolis’s most architecturally unique neighborhoods, this is more than just a
home—it’s your chance to own a piece of the city’s history and shape its next chapter.
