About this property

This 1889-built duplex in St. Paul’s sought-after West 7th neighborhood, offers immediate income from day one with multiple ways to increase its earning potential. The vacant 3-bedroom, 1-bath lower unit is freshly updated with new flooring, paint, lighting and ceiling fans, ready for an owner-occupant or new tenant. Upstairs, an existing tenant is leased at $1,900/month through June 2027, helping offset your mortgage from day one. Here’s where it gets interesting.

An oversized 24x19 detached 2-car garage with tall ceilings, a small office and additional storage potential adds even more flexibility.
