About this home

Welcome to 5608 Colfax Ave South, a stately two-story Colonial located in a prime Southwest Minneapolis location. This well-maintained home has been freshly painted and blends classic style and craftsmanship with modern comforts, creating inviting spaces throughout each level. The expansive living room is centered around a handsome wood-burning fireplace and features beautiful hardwood floors and built-in bookcases, and flows seamlessly into a bright, window-filled sunroom with new carpet and views of the backyard. The spacious dining room boasts stylish wallpaper and vintage lighting. The sun-filled kitchen is light and bright and features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances and a cozy booth - perfect for morning coffee or casual meals. Upstairs, a grand staircase leads to four bedrooms, three of which are generously sized with the fourth ideal as an office or nursery. The full bathroom has been updated with modern fixtures and finishes. The lower level exudes comfort with a vintage flair, boasting a welcoming family room with wood-burning fireplace along with a beautifully updated 3/4 bath. A dedicated, finished storage room provides ample storage and the laundry and mechanical room features newly painted cement floors for a clean aesthetic and additional storage closets and shelving. Additional features include an oversized 2-car garage and half bathroom on the main level. New siding and roof in '25. Sewer line repair in '26. Situated on a prime lot on a quaint, tree-lined avenue just four blocks from Minnehaha Creek and minutes to shops, restaurants, schools and parks, this home is a must see!

How SODL buyer credits work

When you buy with SODL, the brokerage charges a flat $3,000 platform fee at closing. The remaining buyer-side commission (typically 3% of the purchase price) is credited directly back to you at closing, reducing the cash you bring to the table.

  • Tour homes with SODL’s flexible showing network
  • Submit offers and manage your transaction through the platform
  • Keep more money at closing through transparent flat-fee pricing

A clear, modern way to buy with expert guidance and meaningful savings.
