Housing & Neighborhoods

Mid-century ramblers and split-levels on generous wooded lots, updated 1970s and 80s two-stories, and pockets of newer luxury construction. Buyers come for mature trees, larger parcels, and a location that keeps almost everything within a 20 minute drive.

Minnetonka is served by several highly regarded districts depending on address, most commonly Hopkins (ISD 270) and Minnetonka (ISD 276), with parts of Wayzata and Eden Prairie as well. Both Hopkins and Minnetonka consistently rank among the strongest districts in the state.

Lifestyle

Ridgedale Center for shopping and dining, the Minnetonka Center for the Arts, Purgatory Park and the Minnesota Landscape Arboretum nearby, plus miles of regional trails. Lake Minnetonka boat launches, Excelsior's main street, and Highway 394 into Minneapolis are all minutes away.
