Huge Beautiful 2-Story Apartment in a Great Neighborhood.

Covid19 Note: This apartment is professionally cleaned and disinfected prior to each new guest check-in.

Just coming back onto the short-term rental market after a one and half year hiatus. I sold the building about a year and half ago and bought a new place a few blocks away. I have now reopened this wonderful B&B and am again taking reservations. I am still the host and property manager, and look forward to welcoming you here.

We've also recently installed a large solar array on the roof, which provides more than enough electricity for the entire building. It uses "net metering", which ensures a totally seamless electrical supply for the property at all times, regardless of how much energy our array is producing.

This very large two story apartment is truly unique. It occupies two floors, with three bedrooms and one bathroom on the second floor and a kitchen, dining room, bathroom and great room on the first floor. The great room is two stories high with an exposed wraparound staircase. The building still retains it's original hardwood maple floors, with the exception of one of the bedrooms, which is carpeted. Both floors have private 4-season porches on the front of the building. The back door leads out onto a beautiful and rather large split level cedar deck. Some off-street parking is available at the rear of the building as well.

There is one master bedroom with a king size bed, cable TV and it's own private 4-season porch. The other two bedrooms are substantially smaller and feature queen size beds.

Both bathrooms have recently been redone and feature some beautiful custom stonework and cabinetry. The kitchen received granite countertops around the same time, and features a full size refrigerator/freezer, gas range, microwave, coffee machine and toaster. It is also equipped with cookware, dishes and utensils. The apartment has it's own laundry machines, which are located off the kitchen. The dining room is immediately adjacent to the kitchen and has a private 4-season porch attached.

The great room is part of what makes this rental so unique. It has a 20 foot ceiling with an open staircase that wraps up to the second floor. It's the living room of the apartment and features comfortable seating with a large flat screen television. It also has a queen size hide-a-bed.

The apartment is equipped with free wireless high speed internet access, cable television and a dedicated forced air heating and air conditioning system with it's own thermostat that the guest has control over. (Note: this forced air system is exclusive to this B&B and is not shared with the other unit in the building.)

This rental occupies both floors of the South half of the building, and was originally two apartments, which have been converted into one extra large single unit. Guests have three private doors to the apartment: First and second floor front doors, which lead into a common stairwell shared with the other unit in the building, and a back door, which leads out onto the cedar deck.

Very nice space, very clean and well managed.
We couldn't have been happier with our stay. The space is very large, open and appealing. The owner couldn't be more pleasant and helpful. The house is a short 2 block walk from a very interesting restaurant district. We would definitely stay again.

A short stay in Minneapolis
We were happy with our stay from the minute we arrived. Our host was there to meet us and walked us through everything we needed to know. The beds were comfortable and we had plenty of towels. It was an easy walk to many nice restaurants and we went for a nice walk to the lakes areas which was absolutely beautiful. We would stay here again

Nicely restored home
We had a wonderful stay at this home in the Whittier neighborhood. Great location just to the south of downtown Minneapolis. We walked to Lake of the Isles; ran along the Midtown greenway; meandered through a nearby Farmer's Market; and ate meals at restaurants in the neighborhood. Very nice place to stay. The host was helpful, flexible, and friendly.

Great rental in MLPS
We had a great time staying at Mike's VRBO, its location is only a few blocks off of Nicollet (Eat Street) and an easy walk to great food. The place is bigger then the pictures show, gave us tons of space for spreading out and feeling comfortable. The beds were comfortable and the neighborhood quiet. I would highly recommend staying with Mike, who was awesome to work with during our stay!

Spacious yet Private
This property is absolutely wonderful. It’s a great location for a weekend in Minneapolis with friends. Close to many attractions and fun restaurants. The downstairs space is open and wonderful for gathering for movies or games, while the rooms allow you wonderful privacy while still being very bright and open. If you love craftsman style wood work you’ll love this place! Along with a lovely host, will absolutely be booking here again.

large and clean, good neighborhood
This is a pleasant large space in a good walkable neighborhood. House is clean and well-equipped with all the basics. Quiet street. Easy access to downtown, lakes, and right next to Eat Street. Was hard to find choices in Minneapolis that sleep this many people and this was very good for seven people having a long weekend.

A beautiful place, in a great foodie/drinkie location, with a wonderful host
the duplex is a beautifully restored small apartment building that dates back many years. The reconstruction resulted in a 3 bedroom 'house' with a spacious kitchen, great room, and porches. The Master BR is so large and the bed very comfortable. Mike is a gracious host and is ready to provide local info about a lot of topics. A great stay and I highly recommend to families and groups.

Great location, clean and well appointed!!
Mike as a great host. He checked in with us, made sure we had any questions answered, and wanted to make our stay comfortable! The home was very spacious and well furnished...nice for our family get together to celebrate a retirement! The location was perfect with restaurants within two blocks in two directions...also very close to MIA (we walked)...and convenient to downtown! THANK YOU!

Great Place, Exactly as Photographed
Mike was a great host. He was flexible and super quick to respond to questions. He stocked the apartment with a few tasty goodies! The beds were comfortable. The location is great. We walked to several restaurants in the area and enjoyed all of them. Its an easy drive to the airport and downtown. The space worked well for two couples and two small children. I'm looking forward to staying on my next trip to Minneapolis.

Amazing space!
This was an amazing space for our Minneapolis visit. The space is very large with great bedroom sizes, a nice kitchen and dining room, and living area. The parking spaces in the back were very nice for our two families. Mike was very accomodating and had some special touches when we arrived. He ensured we had everything we needed upon arrival. Don't hesitate to rent this space - from the artwork touches to the many living spaces, it is worth every penny!

Perfect!
We were in Minneapolis to watch some baseball and this location was perfect! $10 Uber ride to Target Field. The rental was so spacious the 4 of us were very comfortable. It was clean and had all the necessities. It is a very quiet neighborhood which was a blessing. The fresh squeezed OJ and crossaints were a nice touch. If I am ever in town again I would absolutely stay here again. It was just lovely.

Beautiful place in great location
I, my wife, daughter and her friend stayed in this spacious well decorated 3 bedroom 2 bath unit in a great location to visit the Minneapolis area during spring break. The neighborhood has many unique restaurants and stores in walking distance and only a 15 minute drive to University of Minnesota and Mall of America. There is street parking available and also an off street parking spot in the back of the unit. The owner, Mike, is very hospitable and knowledgeable of the Minneapolis area and is great wealth of information on local attractions and things to do.

Beautiful property in an ideal neighborhood
We used the whole house and it was great for our family celebration. I only wished I had known about the extra charge for additional people. Also, it would have been nice to have a BBQ on that great deck and I wish there had been a dishwasher. However, we had fun and the enclosed porches were all used.

Nice duplex, nice neighborhood
The property was very clean and quiet. It is very close to many restaurants on Nicollet Av. (Eat Street) which is a walkable distance. The only issue we had was with the kitchen. There is no dishwasher. It is small and may be difficult to cook if for more than a couple people. We didn't eat in much, so it was OK for us.
