Description
Most homes make you choose between manageable size, outdoor space, storage, and major updates. But in Edina's Presidents neighborhood, 308 Van Buren Avenue S brings all four together in one classic blue bungalow. This 1.5-story home offers three bedrooms and two baths across 1,270 finished square feet, including a main-level primary bedroom and full bath, plus two upper-level bedrooms and a three-quarter bath. The front entry was professionally remodeled into a true mudroom with a custom-built bench and locker unit, plus an adjacent dedicated office, while the living room features bookended built-ins maximizing your main-level storage. The open-concept dining space leads directly to the rear deck for easy indoor/outdoor entertaining. Out back, the yard and fire-pit area flow straight into five-acre Alden Park, acting as a sprawling backyard extension with none of the mowing. The oversized, insulated, and drywalled two-car garage is a landmark of its own, with a dedicated 200-amp electrical panel, wide parking pad, full staircase, and huge lofted storage area. At this property, all the big-ticket work is already handled: a 2019 architectural asphalt-shingle roof, central A/C added in 2020, vinyl siding in 2023, full sewer liner in 2025, and a new high-efficiency furnace just installed in July 2026. And in the unfinished basement, 6' 11" ceilings make it easy to add a family room or fourth legal bedroom. With quick access to Mainstreet Hopkins, the Cedar Lake LRT Regional Trail, and the future Blake Road Station on the METRO Green Line Extension, this is the smartest buy you'll see this summer.
