This single-floor space is thoughtfully laid out with an open-concept design that connects the kitchen and living areas seamlessly. The kitchen is well-appointed with rich, warm-toned cabinetry, granite-style countertops, and a full suite of stainless steel appliances, including a refrigerator, dishwasher, and electric range topped by a stainless steel wall-mounted range hood. A stone tile backsplash adds a decorative accent behind the range, while a peninsula with a granite countertop provides additional workspace and visual separation from the adjacent living area. Recessed lighting brightens the kitchen throughout. The living area is generously sized, featuring large windows with wood-trimmed frames that bring in abundant natural light and outdoor views. A door provides direct exterior access. The bedrooms are comfortable and well-lit, each equipped with ceiling fans and windows. One bedroom offers notable storage with two sets of full-height bifold closet doors. The bathrooms are clean and functional — one features a pedestal sink, full tub-shower combination, and classic tile flooring, while the second includes a vanity with a wide mirror and wall-mounted cabinetry. Gray wood-look flooring runs consistently throughout the entire space, contributing to a cohesive, modern aesthetic.

From the shore of Bde Maka Ska lake to the thriving businesses along Lyndale Avenue, Uptown serves as a major hub for arts and entertainment in Minneapolis. The music scene has deep roots, with legendary alumni such as Prince getting their start in Uptown. The nightlife tends to be a bit more subdued than the nearby Warehouse District, but still incorporates dozens of bars and nightclubs catering to a variety of tastes. The neighborhood is known for its artistic flair, reflected in the abundance of public artworks and popular events like the Uptown Art Fair.
When it comes to living in Uptown Minneapolis, folks have several great options. Most of the neighborhood is residential, with everything from historic apartment buildings to large single-family homes lining the streets.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
