Dec 8, 2016 at 15:29 comment added Nate Eldredge @Neslihan: I would think so, but you should check the details - I'm less familiar with that case. In particular, you need that the metric completion of $E$ is again a group, so perhaps you need the metric to be translation invariant.
Dec 8, 2016 at 9:53 comment added Neslihan Thanks a lot! This should work for metrizable abelian groups as well, with the same proof, right?
Dec 7, 2016 at 16:56 comment added Nate Eldredge @PietroMajer: Yes, indeed. That makes sense because the homeomorphism from $E$ to $F$ doesn't necessarily preserve the linear structure, so we shouldn't expect the linear structure on $F$ to be important.
Dec 7, 2016 at 15:35 comment added Pietro Majer So the conclusion is also true if $F$ is a complete metric space (not necessarily a Banach space), isn't it?

Dec 7, 2016 at 15:03 comment added Mizar You can skip the last three lines and say: if $\exists x\in\overline{E}\setminus E$, then $E\cap(E+x)=\emptyset$, contradicting Baire's theorem (as $E$ and $E+x$ are dense $G_\delta$ subsets of $\overline{E}$).
