Sold - 4509 Wooddale Avenue, Edina

It really is my honor to be bringing this spectacular New England Colonial in the heart of Edina’s Historic Country Club District to market. Tucked into the heart of the neighborhood, this home boasts one of the largest backyards in East Edina. Classic cedar shake exterior, four fireplaces and plenty of room to add your dream 3+ car garage.

Inside is a gracious, center hall floorplan that’s larger than most. This sprawling main level features exquisite millwork under a fresh coat of satin enamel (Chantilly Lace by Benjamin Moore!) Arched doorways and a paneled wainscoting add elegance to the space.

The large formal dining room sits just off the main foyer with beautiful windows, modern lighting, traditional built-in’s and a stylish wall covering.

Across the foyer is the living room where the graceful arches continue. A wood-burning fireplace is the focal point of the space. Recessed lighting was added to keep the room feeling inviting even on the darkest Minnesota days. Wood-flooring throughout the main and upper levels were sanded, stained and refinished in a rich, walnut tone.

Off the living room is a private den. Amenities include vast backyard views, bay windows and a wood-burning fireplace recently lined with a stainless steel flue liner.

A large main level family room is a welcomed surprise and gives guests incredible connection to the backyard patio. High ceilings, a gas fireplace and two sets of french doors add beauty and functionality.

This kitchen is an absolute show-stopper, a sumptuous blend of modern and traditional in a harmonious juxtaposition. The classic lines of the cabinetry are highlighted by a fresh shade of white enamel and clean lined brass hardware. The handmade tile backsplash is a classic profile in a modern stacked installation. Gorgeous marble countertops bring a timeless elegance while playful lighting keeps things from lending too serious.

This light-filled breakfast area is one of my favorite corners of this home. Custom cabinetry makes for a Instagram-worthy coffee or cocktail bar. But these double hung windows with bonus transom detail add a grandeur to the space.

The main level half bath is a playful blend of modern and traditional.

This amazing mudroom boasts all the storage you can dream up. Lockers feature a cubby with outlet for easy device charging.

The second level features 3 bedrooms, a shared hall bath and a primary ensuite. It also offers access to the upper level deck with expansive views of the large backyard.

The primary suite features serene tones and charming coved ceiling details. The full ensuite is decked in marble and boasts a walk-in shower and large soaking tub.

The homeowners converted one of the 3 second level bedrooms into a cloffice with the help of Built to Last Custom Closets. Cabinetry could easily be repurposed to other areas of the home and converted back to a traditional bedroom.

The third level features a fantastic bedroom with dormered windows, recessed lighting and a bonus half bath.

The lower level traditional built-in’s and paneling has been enameled in a soft blue/gray tone that keeps the space feeling modern and bright. A cozy gas fireplace is flanked by abundant storage.

The lower level 5th bedroom features a private ensuite bath and large closet.

While there is so much to be said about this home, few things rival the size of this yard in this particular neighborhood - you just won’t find another one that offers the canopy of shade or surrounding privacy - your own little sanctuary in the heart of the city!
