Own two homes in one compelling South Minneapolis location. This stone-front side-by-side duplex offers two leased residences today and the possibility of living in one while renting the other when the existing leases allow. Wood floors, comfortable living spaces and practical kitchens give each home everyday appeal. At 5923, an arched opening connects the living and dining rooms, with a lower-level family room for more space to spread out. Outside, the pergola-covered patio, lawn and garden beds offer room to relax, play and grill; a detached two-stall garage adds parking and storage. Kowalski's is up Chicago Avenue, with Diamond Lake, Pearl Park and Minnehaha Creek nearby. It's a property a buyer can hold as a rental or make part of their own South Minneapolis life.
