1401 5th St NE, Unit Upper Unit

Unit Description

Hello Everybody! My name is Trevor Steger. My wife Jennifer and I own a duplex on 5th street in NE Minneapolis near Logan Park. We are looking to rent out the upper half of our duplex starting August 1st. Pictures show the unit. Living below you in the bottom unit are Allie and Steven, a young couple who have been very respectful and very easy going. They live relatively quiet lives, and tend to be early to be and early to rise. We would prefer to find someone who lives similarly so that there are no noise concerns and this is a good fit for everybody. The home has a front porch to sit out on and enjoy a pleasant morning, as well as a concrete patio out back for having an outside table or dining area. We do allow and encourage cats in the upper unit where you will be renting, however we do have a pet fee of $50 a month for the first pet or $75 for two, with a two pet limit. We are not allowing dogs at the moment. We love pets! It's just that they are hard on a home, so we request an additional fee to help with that. As for utilities, we cover water and trash. Gas and electric are split, so you pay for what you use, and we will pay for what we use. The laundry is shared and in the basement. We have off-street parking for 2 cars in the back of the house in the alley. We do require renters insurance for all of our renters. It is extremely inexpensive (as in $5-10 a month), but it makes sure both of us are protected if anything were to happen. All major insurance providers have renters insurance. If in doubt, I would just call whoever provides your car insurance and ask them. Our little neighborhood on 5th street is fantastic, just a couple blocks from the Logan Park which boasts tennis and basketball courts, a playground, and a big open grass area that they fill in with ice rinks in the winter. Outside of being right next to beautiful parks, our home is also just blocks from Young Jonis - Seven coffee shops - Spyhouse Coffee, Dogwood Coffee, Five Watt Coffee, The Briar, Diamonds Coffee Shoppe, Matchbox Coffee Shop, Sip Coffeebar, and Curioso Coffee Bar. - Eight breweries - Bauhaus Brew Labs Brewery, Sociable Cider Works, Indeed Brewing Company, BUCH Fermentary and Taproom, Broken Clock Brewing Cooperative, Paidrags Brewing, and Headflyer Brewing. - Eight Gyms - Anytime Fitness, Snap Fitness, Breakthrough Fitness, Los Campeones Northeast, Albino Rhino Fitness, Studio ME Fitness, and Northeast Fitness. - Seven Yoga Studios - Corepower Yoga, NKB Yoga, HUM Yoga and Barre, Nordeast Yoga, Kora Pilates, and Yogafit Studios. - One ice cream shop - MN Nice Cream. - One French bakery - La Boulangerie Marguerite Oh, and all sorts of little cultural eateries and grocery stores, a library, and everything else NE Minneapolis has to offer. Be to downtown Minneapolis in a five minute drive, or walk to the Stone Arch Bridge, Boom Island Park, or Nicollet Island, all of which are within 1.5 miles of home! As you can tell, we love NE Minneapolis, and think you will too! Please, if you have read this, include the word "elephant" in your message to us as well as a reason you think this is a good fit for everyone. We will prioritize anyone who includes "elephant" because it proves to us that you have taken the time to read and consider what we have taken the time to write, and we really appreciate that. We want this to be a good fit for everybody! Please also share a little information about yourself and anyone else who is planning on renting the unit so we can get to know you a little bit (working? a student? schedule? hobbies? lifestyle? etc.) Please reach out with any questions! We hope to hear from you soon! Thanks for reading! Trevor
