Overview

Description

Exceptional opportunity in a highly sought-after Edina neighborhood. Located on Fairfax Avenue, this story and a half home offers outstanding value, a functional layout, and the chance to enjoy all the conveniences that make this community so popular. Close to parks, shopping, dining, schools, and major commuter routes, the location is hard to beat. The home features an upper-level primary suite, creating a private, peaceful retreat. On the main floor, you'll find two bedrooms, a full bathroom, a spacious living/dining room, and a functional eat-in kitchen with an adjacent deck, perfect for outdoor meals and entertaining. Beautiful hardwood floors add warmth and character throughout much of the home. The lower-level family room walks out to the large backyard, offering plenty of room for recreation, gardening, pets, and play. The roof on the home was replaced in 2021 (garage is older). A wonderful combination of location, comfort, and value in a high-demand neighborhood.
