Welcome to 5804 Schaefer Road, a beautifully renovated four-bedroom, four-bathroom home on a wooded 0.45-acre lot in Edina’s Parkwood Knolls neighborhood. A comprehensive renovation by designer Kim Niosi brings together custom finishes, natural light, and timeless spaces designed for everyday living and entertaining. The connected main level is centered around an expansive designer kitchen featuring premium appliances, custom inset cabinetry, extensive storage, and a large center island with seating. Wide-plank wood floors and carefully selected finishes give the space a warm, sophisticated feel. The kitchen and informal dining area flow naturally into a comfortable family room with a fireplace and direct access to a maintenance-free deck overlooking the tree-lined backyard. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite offers a spa-inspired bath and private balcony overlooking the wooded yard. Additional bedrooms feature vaulted ceilings, skylights, and distinctive loft spaces that can serve as reading, study, or play areas. The finished walkout lower level provides additional room to relax, work, and entertain, with a recreation area, wet bar, fireplace, private home office, cedar closet, and direct access to the backyard. A large storage room, well-appointed laundry and mudroom, and insulated three-car garage add everyday convenience. Surrounded by mature trees and offering generous space for outdoor living, gardening, or a future pool, this move-in-ready home combines privacy, character, and modern comfort with excellent access to parks, shopping, major commuting routes, and the Edina School District.
Parkwood Knolls, located between Highway 100 and France Avenue, is a residential and wooded Edina neighborhood with curving streets and mid-century homes. The neighborhood reads as quiet and tucked behind mature trees, with ranches and split-levels set on generous lots. The area’s character concentrates around the 50th Street & France Avenue corner, where sidewalk patios, boutiques, and small galleries set a polished, walkable tone. Community pillars nearby include the Edina Theatre, 50th & France Wine & Spirits, and the Edina Art Center. Pocket parks and the nearby Minnehaha Creek corridor shape daily routines with green views and trail connections. A short drive north, the chain of lakes adds a classic Minneapolis outdoor backdrop.
