Schedule A Tour Today and Create the Extra Space You’ve Wanted.

The wait is over. The first two buildings at Orono Garage Condos are officially complete and open for tours, with three more buildings actively under construction as part of Phase II.

The response from the community has been outstanding.

As additional phases become available, buyers considering a garage condo storage unit are encouraged to explore their options early.

Why Buyers Are Moving Quickly

The pre-sale activity alone tells the story. Orono Garage Condo buyers were reserving their units before the first building was even finished and here is why:

1. Garage condo ownership is better than renting, helping owners build equity in real property instead of paying storage fees indefinitely.
2. Premium standard features are included within each unit: in-floor heat, 150A electrical, 26’ ceilings, and a roughed-in bathroom are standard. This isn’t a storage unit; it’s a property.
3. Owners can fully customize their unit. Work with Mikan Custom Homes or other contractors to personalize your space after closing. Build a mezzanine for added square footage, add an full size kitchen, or include a private office space.
4. Have peace of mind that gated access, full perimeter fencing, and 24/7 security cameras will keep your property and investments protected.
5. Owners have resale flexibility to sell Garage Condo unit like any piece of real estate.
6. Prime west Minneapolis metro location for easy access to major roads and Lake Minnetonka makes these units convenient year-round.
