Whitehall. The premier boutique Edina enclave. Here is a beautifully built and updated/upgraded residence noted for its spacious halls, gathering space, live-in caretaker, verdant grounds, and very “residential” location bordering Parkwood Knolls and Edina Highlands. One of the few corner residences featuring a center island kitchen. There has been a whole-house renovation by John Kraemer and Sons, including all custom cabinetry and built-ins, added millwork, and elevated hard surfaces of quartzite and marble. From the carefully selected fixtures and faucets to the Cole & Co. mahogany vanity, each rich detail has been carefully crafted to represent the highest quality. One is welcomed by a double-door entry to a generous gallery foyer leading to formal areas streaming with natural light from a full wall of windows and custom plantation shutters (throughout), a family room with beautiful paneling and built-ins set to glow by a classic wood-burning fireplace. There is a delightful solarium, two exceptional bedrooms, including a primary with extensive closet space, custom cabinetry and built-ins, and a wonderfully current light marble bath and dressing area. Where the main bath features a furniture-quality vanity with book-matched, ribbon-grain hardwood, there is also a lovely and functional cherry/briarwood built-in highlighting the informal dining and kitchen with a matching center island. The balance of the cabinets and millwork is off-white enamel and accented by wide, white oak hardwood flooring with some quarter-sawn accent. Light and refreshing throughout, there is also a strong sense of enduring quality and expert craftsmanship. The few 1st and 2nd-floor corner, center-island residences on this end of Whitehall should be noted as identical in size and seldom available.
