MLS# 7112107 - 16 Grove Street Minneapolis, MN 55401

Homes on Nicollet Island seldom come to market, and end-unit residences at Grove Street Flats are rarer still. Set in an 1877 Second Empire row house surrounded by the Mississippi River, parkland and walking trails, yet minutes from downtown, this home offers what cannot be built new: history, setting and light. The end-unit position is the difference. Twelve windows and multiple exposures fill the home with natural light from morning to evening, something the interior units cannot match. The main level features refinished hardwood floors, original woodwork and tall ceilings. A brick fireplace anchors the living room, and a curved bay window frames the dining room. The kitchen offers white cabinetry, a gas cooktop, new hexagon tile flooring and an island with a new butcher block top: fully functional today, and ready for whatever remodel the next owner has in mind. A half bath completes the main level. The lower level includes two bedrooms, a full bath with classic white subway tile and hex mosaic floor, and in-unit laundry. The second bedroom works well as an office or study. New luxury vinyl plank flooring runs through most of the lower level, with additional matching flooring and paint on site for the remaining areas. From here, step directly out to a private, fenced garden patio, a true rarity in a historic condominium and a welcome feature for pet owners. An unfinished limestone basement below provides storage and houses the mechanicals. The owners have completed the groundwork, including refinished hardwoods, new flooring, fresh paint and new trim. What remains is the rewarding part: a kitchen refresh, new bath vanities and flooring in two rooms. This is a rare chance to put your own stamp on a landmark home. Equipped with central air, forced-air gas heat, and an assigned garage stall, the property is supported by an association that handles exterior maintenance, utilities (water/sewer), snow removal, lawn care, and insurance. Pets are welcome. Nicollet Island Park, the river trails, St. Anthony Main, the Stone Arch Bridge, East Hennepin and downtown are all just outside your door. Finishes can be changed. The setting, the architecture and the light cannot.
