2835 Chippewa

PROPERTY DESCRIPTION

Vacant since the 1980s, this former auto sales building underwent extensive renovations in 2025, bringing it back to life with a new purpose as the tiniest of our tiny houses. The south facade features clerestory windows and thermally modified wood cladding; inside, the main room includes a full kitchen and bathroom, making this space flexible for residential, commercial, or live/work uses. Located adjacent to our larger renovation, Zella Mae, it sits across from also-tiny-but-slightly-larger neighbor at 2837 Chippewa. Together, these two little homes share the basement of 2837 Chippewa, with washer/dryer and additional storage (as shown in the last four photos). Bring your best Murphy bed or art easel and make this space your own!

Price is $850/month for rent plus $76/month for water/sewer/trash. One off-street parking space in the gated lot is included. Security deposit is equal to one month’s rent subject to credit and application approval. Tenant pays for electric service in this all-electric space directly to the service provider, Ameren. The advertised rental rate reflects a $50/mo discount for paying rent via ACH / wire transfer on the first of the month.
