About this home
Exceptional opportunity on a rare double corner lot in the heart of Kenny, where the true value is in the land and the possibilities it creates. Move in and enjoy as-is, add a lower-level bedroom (egress already in place), expand and create your dream home, build up, or explore redevelopment potential. Per the City of Minneapolis, this 13,068 SF lot is eligible to be subdivided into two lots for development. This charming brick home offers timeless character, a galley kitchen, and a unique bonus family room off the kitchen, adding flexibility and livability not often found in homes of this era. Set around the corner from Grass Lake and within walking distance to top-ranked Kenny Elementary and Anthony Middle School, this property offers an exceptional combination of location, lot size, and future upside. The enormous fully fenced yard features established gardens and a charming playhouse, with ample room to imagine an addition, pool, seasonal ice rink, or an entirely new vision. With quick access to 35W, the Crosstown, the airport, and light rail, commuting and connectivity are effortless while still enjoying the feel of one of Southwest Minneapolis’s most loved neighborhoods. Bring your imagination. The possibilities here are truly endless.

How SODL buyer credits work
When you buy with SODL, the brokerage charges a flat $3,000 platform fee at closing. The remaining buyer-side commission (typically 3% of the purchase price) is credited directly back to you at closing, reducing the cash you bring to the table.
- Tour homes with SODL’s flexible showing network
- Submit offers and manage your transaction through the platform
- Keep more money at closing through transparent flat-fee pricing
A clear, modern way to buy with expert guidance and meaningful savings.
