Nestled in the heart of the vibrant Northeast Minneapolis Arts District, 669 13th Ave NE offers a unique blend of historic charm and modern updates. This spacious duplex, built in 1900, boasts 2,635 square feet of living space, with 5 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, and has been thoughtfully renovated for comfort and convenience.
The property features a stunning front Palladian window, adding architectural elegance to the front facade. The home also includes a new asphalt shingle roof for both the house and the detached garage, ensuring long-lasting durability. The remodeled second-floor bathroom brings a fresh, modern touch. Two new circuit breaker panels provide updated electrical systems.
With porches at the front, side, and back, there are plenty of outdoor spaces to enjoy, and the home’s large windows fill each room with natural light, highlighting the original hardwood floors and intricate woodwork throughout.
The location couldn’t be more ideal, with art galleries, workshops, James Beard award restaurants, Grain Belt Brewery and cozy coffee shops nearby. Logan Park and Recreation Center is right across the street with playground, wading pool, sports fields and courts. Ideal recreational venue for residents of all ages.
