The 1st Ave Retreat: Assigned Parking in the Art District

Compact, charming, and impeccably kept, this one-bedroom Whittier corner unit makes every one of its 500 square feet count. East-facing windows bring in great morning light, and the thoughtful layout feels comfortable rather than cramped. The kitchen features granite counters, stainless appliances, a counter-height eucalyptus table that doubles as an island, and classic maple cabinetry with updated pulls and fixtures. The bathroom is a highlight; a subway tile shower with a mosaic inset adds a nice touch. Big closets, a community patio, and an assigned parking space round things out. Step outside to the newly reconstructed 1st Ave protected bike lane connecting Whittier to downtown, with Eat Street and the Minneapolis Institute of Art just around the corner. An evolving corridor with genuine momentum and an affordable foothold in a compelling Whittier location.
