2833 Chippewa 2S

PROPERTY DESCRIPTION

Welcome to our newest renovation, 2831-33 Chippewa! This building was the long-time home of Cox Furniture, owned and operated by local folk singers, Slim & Zella Mae (the story is worth a quick read, if you have a few minutes to spare). The upper floors were vacant for decades before undergoing a complete gut renovation completed in May 2025.

There are four apartments per floor on each the second and third floors of the building, for a total of eight residential units. Unit 2833 2S is located on the west side of the building, towards the front (south) facade. All second-floor units are peppered with historic touches, and 2833 2S includes paneled doors, detailed millwork, historic mantelpiece, refinished original hardwood flooring throughout the living areas, and the building’s only remaining intact pocket door. All south-facing spaces have the benefit of an additional wall of windows. The apartment is equipped with its own dedicated in-unit washer/dryer, and the kitchen is outfitted with all-electric stainless steel appliances and quartz countertops.

Price is $795/month for rent plus $86/month for water/sewer/trash. This is a cat-friendly apartment! Pet rent is $25/month. Security deposit is equal to one month’s rent subject to credit and application approval. The advertised rental rate reflects a $50/mo discount for paying rent via ACH / wire transfer on the first of the month. On-street parking is available on neighboring streets of Chippewa & Oregon, along with a free city-owned lot half a block away at Chippewa & California.
