Nestled on a rare and private 1.44-acre wooded lot, this architecturally distinctive walkout rambler offers an exceptional blend of privacy, character, and modern luxury. Surrounded by mature trees and set back on a circular driveway, the property feels like a North Woods retreat while remaining just minutes from everything Edina has to offer, highlighted by thoughtfully curated spaces including a stunning renovated kitchen, three fire features, and a screened porch anchored by a Swedish-designed wood-burning stove. The main level showcases soaring vaulted ceilings with exposed beams, skylights, expansive windows, and beautifully connected living spaces designed to capture views of the surrounding landscape. A stunning 2024 kitchen renovation anchors the home with custom cabinetry, dramatic granite countertops and full-height backsplash, built-in appliances, designer lighting, and a showstopping waterfall island. The adjoining great room features a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace with custom built-ins, renovated in 2024. Designed for year-round enjoyment, the main living spaces flow seamlessly to an expansive deck and a remarkable screened porch featuring a Swedish-designed wood-burning stove installed in 2025. Serving as both a functional heat source and striking architectural focal point, the stove transforms the porch into a cozy retreat. Whether enjoying morning coffee among the trees or relaxing fireside on a snowy evening, the outdoor spaces create a private retreat unlike anything else in the area. The luxurious primary suite includes a fully renovated spa-inspired bath completed in 2026 with a freestanding soaking tub, tiled walk-in shower, dual vanity, backlit mirrors, and designer finishes. An additional 3/4 bath was also completely renovated in 2026. The walkout lower level expands the living space with a large family room featuring a second fireplace and custom built-ins, spacious guest accommodations, wet bar, recreation area, and direct access to the private backyard. Just outside the walkout patio door, the 2024 hot tub creates the perfect place to relax and enjoy the peaceful wooded surroundings. The finished and heated garage was thoughtfully updated in 2024 and features an epoxy-coated floor, extensive storage cabinetry, workshop space, bright overhead lighting, and a rough-in for a future EV charger. With room for vehicles, hobbies, projects, and gear, it functions as a true extension of the home's living and storage space. Additional improvements include fresh interior paint throughout, extensive storage, mature landscaping, and numerous updates completed between 2024 and 2026. Rarely does a property offer this combination of acreage, privacy, architectural character, extensive recent updates, and year-round indoor-outdoor living at this price point in Edina.
