1707 University Ave NE puts you in the heart of Northeast Minneapolis, where Art-A-Whirl weekends, neighborhood breweries, and coffee shops like Spyhouse and Dogwood are part of daily life. Vinai, Hai Hai, Stanley's, and Jax are nearby, with bike trails four blocks away and downtown just minutes by car or bike. Inside, a 2021 renovation transformed the main level with a stunning kitchen featuring a large island, concrete countertops, matte black cabinetry, subway tile, open shelving, new appliances, and incredible natural light. Main-level bathrooms were refreshed in 2026, new vinyl plank flooring runs throughout, and updated electrical in 2021 brought the home fully to code. The renovated lower level adds a second primary suite with walk-in closet, and fully upgraded lower level bath including a spa-like tile shower, floating vanity. When you visit, don't forget to pay attention when on the stair landing-the sauna is accessible from both the interior and exterior and there is access to a landscaped dog run added in 2025. Additional Major updates include AC (2014), water heater (2018), and garage door (2026). Outside, a rain garden anchors the front yard, planted through the neighborhood community group. The fully fenced backyard was reseeded and refreshed last summer, and includes a raised garden bed, firepit and large deck. This is truly a unique Nordeast opportunity!
