The Claridge is a restored 1922 low-rise condominium complex in Minneapolis’s East Isles neighborhood, composed of vintage one-bedroom residences arranged around two landscaped courtyards. Its masonry and stone exterior is often wrapped in ivy and framed by perennial gardens with fountain features. Interiors preserve early-20th-century character—hardwood floors, built-in cabinetry and classic tile baths—while many units display contemporary upgrades such as granite counters, stainless appliances, and in-unit laundry. Common areas are varied and well-appointed: an art-lined corridor network, a large party room, craft/workshop space, a fitness room with sauna, guest suite, rooftop deck, bike storage and detached garage parking with additional basement storage lockers. The building functions as a 36-unit community with low association dues, on-site conveniences and periodic capital improvements (roof and AC updates noted). Located two blocks from Lake of the Isles and within walking distance of Hennepin Avenue shops, transit and dining, the Claridge combines historic charm, garden-fronted outdoor spaces and a cooperative amenity program geared to social and active neighborhood living.
