The property benefits from a highly walkable, amenity-rich location just five blocks from the University of Saint Thomas and within close proximity to some of the Twin Cities’ most highly regarded dining and neighborhood retail options, supporting consistent rental demand.
Constructed in 1914, Laurel Avenue Apartments is comprised of 17 total residences, including 12 studio units and 5 one-bedroom units. The units average approximately 375 square feet and currently achieve average rents of $731 per month, positioning the property at an attainable price point for the submarket.

Ownership has completed a number of capital improvements throughout the property, including replacing half of the buildings plumbing with PEX, replacing windows, fulling insulating walls and crawl spaces, and replacing both of the main roof drains. In 2016, the exterior stucco was completely removed and replaced using traditional application along with new exterior trim and window sill/trim. Two units have been fully gutted and renovated, and the building is serviced by a dual gas-fired boiler system installed in 2008. Additional features include owned on-site laundry, gas cooking, and a pet-free policy, contributing to operational efficiency and long-term durability for a future owner.
