Lakes, trails, and a community built for the outdoors? That’s Eden Prairie. 🛶🏡

Welcome to Part 12 of our 14-part Southwest & West Suburbs Neighborhood Series.

Eden Prairie is a nature lover’s dream disguised as a thriving suburb. With more than 1,000 acres of developed parkland, 37 parks, and an incredible 225 miles of trails, you’re never far from a walk, bike ride, or paddle. Staring Lake is a local favorite with its outdoor center, observatory, and disc golf course, while Round Lake brings beach access and a splash pad for those warm summer days.

The dining scene runs the gamut, from family-owned restaurants and local breweries to more upscale spots: so there’s something for every craving.

Homes here range from comfortable townhomes and mid-century gems to newer builds, with recent median sale prices around $437,500–$475,000 depending on the source. As always, a specific home’s value depends on its condition, updates, location, and the market.

Great schools, gorgeous parks, and that unmistakable “established suburb” feel? That’s Edina. 🌳🏡

Welcome to Part 11 of our 14-part Southwest & West Suburbs Neighborhood Series: and our first stop in the West Suburbs.

Edina is one of the most sought-after communities in the Twin Cities. With 40+ parks and roughly 1,500 acres of green space: including Centennial Lakes Park with its boardwalk-lined ponds and the scenic Edina Promenade: there’s always a beautiful place to be outside.

The dining and shopping scene is fantastic: 50th & France is a classic hub of boutiques and eateries, while the Southdale/Galleria area adds even more options.

Home values vary widely by neighborhood: entry-level options near Southdale, and premium pockets like the Country Club District (around $1.2M), Indian Hills (about $1.35M), and Morningside (roughly $820K). Citywide medians generally land around $625K–$680K depending on the source. A specific home’s value depends on condition, updates, location, and the market.

Quiet streets, a top-notch park, and nature just steps away? That’s Kenny. 🦆🏡

Welcome to Part 10 of our 14-part Southwest & West Suburbs Neighborhood Series.

Kenny is a serene, family-friendly pocket of Southwest Minneapolis that flies a little under the radar. Kenny Park is the anchor here, with a recreation center, playgrounds, athletic fields, and a seasonal ice rink that keeps things lively all year. For nature lovers, Grass Lake is right nearby for walking trails and wildlife watching, and Armatage Park is close enough for even more green space.

It’s the kind of neighborhood where kids ride bikes, neighbors wave from their porches, and life moves at a comfortable pace.

Homes here are mostly classic mid-century styles on lovely tree-lined streets. Recent median listing prices land around $449K, with other estimates ranging from the low-$440Ks to just under $500K depending on the source and timing.

A Southwest Minneapolis neighborhood that still feels wonderfully attainable? That’s Regina. 🌞🏡

Welcome to Part 9 of our 14-part Southwest & West Suburbs Neighborhood Series.

Regina is a friendly, unpretentious corner of the city where community comes first. Regina Park is the neighborhood gathering spot, with a playground and open space that bring families together. And for outdoor lovers, the Minnehaha Creek trails are close by, with Lake Nokomis just a short trip away: think beach days, a 2.7-mile trail loop, and plenty of room to roam.

It’s the kind of neighborhood where you get a relaxed pace of life without giving up easy access to the rest of Minneapolis.

Home styles are mostly comfortable mid-century and classic family homes, and recent median sale prices sit around $330K, with sales commonly in the $280K–$370K range. As always, a specific home’s value depends on its condition, updates, location, and the market.

Creek-side living with a community feel and an easy path to the lake? That’s Windom. 🌊🏡

Welcome to Part 8 of our 14-part Southwest & West Suburbs Neighborhood Series.

Windom is all about the outdoors. The Minnehaha Creek winds right through the neighborhood, with a paved trail that connects you to the wider Minneapolis park system: perfect for morning jogs, bike rides, or slow evening walks. Windom Park is the neighborhood’s community hub, offering a playground, ball fields, and a wading pool, and Lake Nokomis is just a short trip away for beaches, trails, and open water.

It’s a quiet, welcoming corner of Southwest Minneapolis where the creek truly shapes daily life.

Home styles here are mostly classic, comfortable family homes, with recent median listing prices around $404,900 as of March 2026. As always, a specific home’s value depends on its condition, updates, location, and the market.

The kind of neighborhood where everyone knows your name and the park is the heart of it all? That’s Armatage. 🌳🏡

Welcome to Part 7 of our 14-part Southwest & West Suburbs Neighborhood Series.

Armatage is a classic family-friendly pocket of Southwest Minneapolis, and Armatage Park is its crown jewel: 17 acres of recreation center, baseball and softball fields, basketball courts, a wading pool for hot summer days, and even an ice rink come winter. If you love a neighborhood built around outdoor life, this is it.

A few other green escapes: York Park and Windom South Park: add even more room to roam close to home.

Recent median listing prices land around $484,499, with values generally ranging from the mid-$450Ks to the mid-$500Ks depending on the source and property.

A friendly, neighborly pocket of Southwest Minneapolis with some of the best breakfast in town? That’s Kingfield. ☕🏡

Welcome to Part 6 of our 14-part Southwest & West Suburbs Neighborhood Series.

Kingfield is one of those neighborhoods that feels like a small town inside the city. Martin Luther King Park sits right at its heart, bringing athletic fields, a recreation center, and a wading pool that draws families all summer. And if you want a dose of greenery, the beautiful Lyndale Park Gardens are just a short ride over toward Lake Harriet.

The dining scene is where Kingfield really shines. Nicollet Avenue is lined with local staples: Victor’s 1959 Café is a Twin Cities institution for Cuban breakfast, and Café Ena and Boludo bring plenty of delicious variety to the block.

Home styles here are wonderfully varied, from charming early-1900s houses to newer construction, with recent median prices around $379K as of May 2026. As always, a specific home’s value depends on its condition, updates, location, and the market.

Some neighborhoods just feel like they’re hiding around the corner of the city: Tangletown is one of them. 🍂🏡

Welcome to Part 5 of our 14-part Southwest & West Suburbs Neighborhood Series.

Tangletown gets its name from its winding streets along Minnehaha Creek. Creek trails offer access to the wider Minneapolis park system, making a casual stroll feel like a little adventure.

Green space is a big part of life here: historic Washburn Park, with its iconic water tower, and Fuller Park; with basketball courts, a playground, and a summer swimming pool; keep the neighborhood lively.

Nicollet Avenue delivers local favorites including Wise Acre Eatery, Patisserie 46, Naviya’s Thai Brasserie, and the Bull’s Horn.

Home styles range from Tudors and bungalows to newer builds, with recent median listing prices around $625K as of June 2026. A specific home’s value depends on its condition, updates, location, and the market.

A neighborhood that’s quiet, green, and still just minutes from the lake? That’s East Harriet in a nutshell. 🌿🏡

Welcome to Part 4 of our 14-part Southwest & West Suburbs Neighborhood Series.

East Harriet sits between the bustle of the city and the calm of Lake Harriet, which means you get the best of both worlds. Lyndale Farmstead Park anchors the neighborhood as its go-to green space: think open lawns, gardens, and that welcoming community energy: and the lake’s trails and gardens are right there when you want a longer wander.

There’s no big commercial strip here, which is part of the charm. Instead you’ll find neighborhood-friendly cafes and restaurants dotted along Lyndale Avenue, including the beloved Harriet Brasserie for a cozy bite close to home.

Home styles lean toward classic Minneapolis character, and recent estimates put median prices roughly in the $475K–$725K range depending on the source and the property. As always, a specific home’s value depends on its condition, updates, location, and the market.

If you want the classic Southwest Minneapolis mix: quiet tree-lined blocks, a short walk to the lake, and some of the best local bites in the city: Fulton belongs on your list. 🌳🏡

Welcome to Part 3 of our 14-part Southwest & West Suburbs Neighborhood Series.

Fulton sits right next to Linden Hills and Lynnhurst, which means it shares that same easygoing, walkable energy: Lake Harriet is just steps away, Pershing Field Park anchors the neighborhood for picnics and summer league games, and you can grab a scoop at Bread & Pickle by the bandshell after a sunset stroll.

The food scene holds its own, too. Broders’ Pasta Bar, Red Cow, and a handful of neighborhood favorites keep things deliciously local without ever leaving the area.

Home styles lean toward classic Minneapolis character: Tudors, bungalows, and storybook-style houses: with recent estimates putting the median sale price around $702,500 as of May 2026. As always, a specific home’s value depends on its condition, updates, location, and the market.
