About 480 8th Street
The Downton Abbey is located in the historic city of Red Wing, Minnesota. Just a few short blocks to the downtown central business district and the iconic St. James Hotel. Claimed to be one of the oldest cities in all of Minnesota, it is storied with a rich history. Originally built in 1965 for the sisters of Saint Jospeh parish as a convent, this stunning three story all-brick building was transformed in 2025 with six well-appointed units. There are two 3-bedroom, two 2-bedroom, and two 1-bedroom apartments spread out over the main and upper floors. The interior has been totally updated with new custom kitchens, quartz countertops, undermount sinks, stainless steel appliances including full size dishwashers and built-in microwaves, and energy-efficient Whirlpool name-brand stack washers and dryers in all apartments. The exterior has received a 30-year pitched asphalt shingled roof, Andersen series 100 windows, and the brick was tuck-pointed. The units offer luxury vinyl plank flooring, LED lighting, Kohler plumbing fixtures, tiled shower surrounds, two panel shaker interior doors, and plush carpeting in the bedrooms. Brand new electrical, plumbing, and sprinkler systems installed. Sits on an oversized corner lot with 0.38+ acres and a freshly laid 12-stall parking lot for residents to enjoy. Walking distance to shops, restaurants, churches, and the entertaining Sheldon Theatre of performing arts!
