Why do we buy real estate? Because we want freedom. We want choice. We want a future where our money works for us instead of the other way around. That’s exactly what this rare Columbia Heights duplex offers: a chance to live smart....to invest in your future while living in comfort right now. Picture this: you move into a freshly updated, spacious 3-bed, 3-bath home with brand-new carpet, fresh paint, vaulted ceilings, two cozy fireplaces, and your own private two-car tuck-under garage. You get a deck, a fenced backyard, and a beautiful layout with all three bedrooms on one level—including a large primary suite with a private three-quarter bath. And while you’re enjoying your peaceful, move-in-ready space, your tenants next door—long-term and stable—are helping cover your mortgage. Maybe most of it. Maybe all of it. That’s the power of house hacking done right. Or maybe you’re an investor who knows that great layouts and thoughtful design = long-term value. With each unit offering 3 beds and 3 baths, these aren’t your average rentals. This is a rare floor plan that attracts quality tenants and commands solid rents. Vaulted main living spaces, spacious family rooms, decks, and attached garages—these units live like single-family homes, and that’s what renters want. Location? You’re 10 minutes—or less—from downtown Minneapolis with lightning-fast access to Central Ave, University Ave, 35W, and 694. You’re not just buying real estate; you’re buying options, mobility, and a stress-free commute. This isn’t just a duplex. It’s your opportunity to build equity, live well, and invest in your why.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
