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.)
