Executive Summary

3401 & 3405 Lyndale Ave. South has been home to Sonny’s Ice Cream, family owned and operated for decades. Results Commercial is selling ONLY the real estate, however, the restaurant and commercial kitchen, along with a majority of the Furnishings, Fixtures and Equipment (FF&E) will be included in the sale.
NO lease-back interest from the Sellers. Excellent opportunity for a new operator of the restaurant, café, or bistro to step in and begin operations quickly in a high demand South Minneapolis location. Fully operational street level commercial kitchen.
Formerly two separate buildings but now connected with a walkway. Two separate PID#s with Hennepin County. (See OM details for square footage breakdowns and floor plans for both buildings.)
• Quaint, gorgeous old world European café with a minimum of 35-40 seats inside and three separate beautiful outdoor areas which add an additional 70 seats (piazza, front, 34th street side).
• The entire property is beautifully landscaped from the front to back with over 100 ft of boulevard garden. The front garden of 3405 was designed by a renowned Japanese landscape architect.
• Lovely, remodeled one bedroom apartment on 2nd level of 3405 building. Currently owner suite and will vacate following sale.
• Owners have worked with the city to keep storefront street open - free from parking & bus stops
• Sonny's Cafe has 2 hoods - 1 in the main kitchen (11' wide) and one in the storefront dishwasher (new and never used). Both are in excellent condition.
• VALUE ADD: Two large storage spaces on the MAIN level of both buildings. Prime storefront expansion opportunities. (3405 can open into piazza and 3401 can open into existing café space, side seating, and/or kitchen).
• This is prime value-add space that investors and owner operators are seeking. Listing brokers can explain further with examples of market rents for main level retail on Lyndale Ave South.
• Office space directly above the cafe with potential for other use.
