Phillips

2601 Portland Ave #CARRIAGE, Minneapolis, MN 55407, USA

Tucked above a heated garage on the corner of two vibrant one-way streets, on a tree-lined plot in West Phillips, this one-bedroom carriage house is one of those rare finds that people don't let go of easily. Previous tenant lived here for 10+ years! The heart of the apartment is a wide-open living space with hardwood floors, soaring ceilings, and windows on multiple sides that flood the room with natural light all day — morning sun from the east, soft indirect light through the afternoon. A functional wood-burning brick fireplace anchors the room. A powerful mini-split AC unit keeps summers comfortable. Radiant heat handles the winters. The layout is flexible: past tenants have set up a dedicated workspace at the east-facing windows, a reading corner near the fireplace, even a green house in the breezeway- and everything in between! The bedroom is a proper, private room — separate from the living space, with a full bathroom (tile floor, tub/shower) just steps away. The kitchen boasts ample storage and gas stove/oven, with hardwood floors carrying through from the living area. Outside, you'll have access to one of the most genuinely special yards in South Minneapolis: a 40-year cultivated, fully fenced oasis with mature shade trees, a raised dining patio, and a large koi pond with waterfall feature — audible from both the living room and bedroom on warm evenings. Outdoor furniture is included. The yard is shared with the owners, who take pride in keeping it beautiful, and second unit tenant. Spacious garage space is included in rent. The garage has automatic lighting, a digital keypad, and a keyed entry — and there's room for a second car behind yours for guests. Ample free street parking is available as well. Mail is received at a shared entry. Attic storage is available and shared among building residents. The location is as good as it gets for South Minneapolis daily life: World Famous "Eat Street" is 5 blocks away, with groceries, parks, daycares, and restaurants all within easy walking distance. The neighborhood scores 94/100 for cycling. Well-behaved pets welcome with monthly pet rent and a non-refundable deposit. Cats and dogs considered- pets must be supervised in the yard (fully fenced, but we ask that dogs remain leashed to protect the garden and koi pond). 12-month lease, converting to month-to-month (long-term tenants desired!). Flat monthly utility share of $125 applies. Utility share includes AC, radiant heat, gas, electric, water, fiber optic internet. Rent includes in-building laundry/dryer, garage parking, storage. Rent varies by occupancy. Available August 1, flexible with July move-ins.

If natural light is non-negotiable for you, stop here, you'll love it here. The south-facing Mother-in-law suite at 2601 Portland Ave occupies nearly the entire south side of a meticulously maintained 1889 Victorian manor in West Phillips, and the windows — oversized, nearly floor-to-ceiling across the kitchen, dining room, living room, and bedroom — deliver sun and warmth all day long. There is not a darker hour in this apartment. At 550 square feet, the suite lives larger than it sounds. Ten-foot ceilings, well-defined spaces, and hardwood floors in excellent condition throughout give the apartment genuine breathing room. The layout flows naturally from a generous living area into a dedicated dining space and into a full kitchen with full-size refrigerator, dishwasher, and ample kitchen cabinet storage — a rare find at this price point. The bedroom is private and proper, with a closet, and a full bathroom with classic tile finishes sits just steps away. A dedicated coat and shoe closet greets you at the entry — the small detail that makes a real difference in daily life. The suite has its own dedicated space within a shared entry — separate from the other units, private in feel, with mail delivered directly to the entry vestibule. Laundry is available in the building. Attic storage is shared among building residents and steps away. One garage parking space is included. The garage has automatic lighting, a digital keypad, and a keyed entry. Out back, you'll have access to the same 40-year cultivated yard shared with the carriage house and owner unit: fully fenced, mature shade trees, raised dining patio, and a large koi pond with waterfall feature that becomes the unofficial soundtrack of warm evenings. The yard is maintained with real pride — it shows. A note on heating and cooling: the suite shares a climate system with the main unit (owners' residence). Heat and AC are central and reliable- we work collaboratively with tenants on comfort. This is a home where owners and tenants share a building and look out for each other — the previous tenant rented for eight years. World Famous Eat Street is 7 blocks away. Groceries, parks, daycares, and restaurants are all within easy walking distance. The neighborhood scores 94/100 for cycling. Well-behaved pets considered with monthly pet rent and a non-refundable deposit. Cats and dogs considered- pets must be supervised in the yard. 12-month lease, converting to month-to-month (seeking long-term renters!). Flat monthly utility share of $100 applies. Utility share includes gas, electric, water, internet. Rent includes in-building laundry/dryer, garage parking, storage. Rent varies by occupancy. Available June 1.
