Property details
About 3879 Polk St NE
This unique side-by-side, three-level split duplex in Columbia Heights is a smart opportunity for an owner-occupant looking to offset their mortgage. Each unit features 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, a two-car tuck-under garage, vaulted ceilings, two fireplaces, a spacious family room, and a deck leading to a fenced backyard. The vacant unit is move-in ready with brand-new carpet, fresh paint, and a clean, open layout, while the other side has long-term tenants already in place. Live in one side and let the rental income from the other help pay your mortgage—potentially covering most or even all of it. Located less than 10 minutes from downtown Minneapolis, with quick access to Central Avenue, University Avenue, 35W, and 694, this property offers both convenience and strong financial upside. It’s a rare chance to own a high-quality duplex in a great location with a layout that feels more like a single-family home.
