About this home
Spacious 8-Bedroom, 5-Bath Duplex in Historic Lowry Hill – over 5,000 Sq Ft.
This exceptional duplex offers flexibility for both owner-occupants and investors. Live in one spacious unit while generating rental income from the other to offset mortgage payments, or use it strictly as an income-producing property in one of Minneapolis’s most desirable neighborhoods.
The property is a stately brick-and-stucco residence in the highly sought-after Lowry Hill historic district, offering 4,931 square feet of finished living space. It combines timeless architectural character with modern updates. Classic features include hardwood floors, beamed ceilings, stained glass, crystal fixtures, built-ins, high ceilings, crown molding, and three floating fireplaces. Outdoor amenities include a front and back patio, a balcony, and a deck. The front patio is accented by a fountain, iron planters, window box planter, and an antique brick floor in a herringbone pattern.
The upper unit spans approximately 2,500 square feet across two levels and features five large bedrooms and three bathrooms. Highlights include a formal dining room, a sun-filled living room with a floating fireplace, a sunroom, and both a balcony and deck for outdoor relaxation. The master suite measures 27 by 18 feet and is enhanced by inlaid bloodwood floors and roof windows that provide abundant natural light. South-facing living areas with high ceilings and detailed picture frame crown molding create a bright and elegant setting throughout.
The lower unit offers approximately 2,431 square feet on two levels, with three large bedrooms and two bathrooms. The layout includes a formal dining room, a living room with a floating fireplace, and a family room with an additional floating fireplace. Two sunrooms and a large back patio provide multiple spaces for relaxation. The lower unit also has access to a first-floor common area that can be finished to add approximately 300 additional square feet of living space. Like the upper unit, the living areas are south-facing with high ceilings and refined crown molding.
Recent upgrades further enhance the property’s appeal. In 2025, the roof underwent a complete tear-off and re-deck and was replaced with 50-year architectural shingles, covered by a 25+ year warranty with SELA. That same year, four new remote-control skylights with power venting and shades were installed. Both boilers were replaced in 2025 with high efficient units. Additional updates include two hot water heaters installed in 2022 and a new washer added to the lower unit in 2024.
Situated in the heart of Lowry Hill, this duplex offers close proximity to the Walker Art Center, Lake of the Isles, Uptown, and the many shops, restaurants, and cultural landmarks that make this one of Minneapolis’s most desirable neighborhoods and one block from Mt. Curve....
