Bloomington MN Executive Homes and New Construction.
Surprisingly, the Bloomington MN real estate market does offer a few new single family home construction listings. What is even more surprising is that the lots and parcels are not “picked over;” they enjoy some of the finest river bluff and park views in the entire south and west metro suburbs. However, inventory is limited. If you act quickly, you may be able to find some remaining spots on the Auto Club Road/Circle area that re open to builders of your choosing. Enjoy sweeping views of the Minnesota River Valley and the Minnesota Valley Country Club. Some available parcels and to-be-builts are just within view of Bloomington Ferry Landing, Nord Myr Park, Marsh Lake Park, Hyland Hills Skiing, and Minnesota Valley National Wildlife Recreation Area. Executive homes, both new and those only a few years old include construction by Registry and Charles Cudd. Luxury estates include Country French built property by Marv Anderson in the River Bluff Estates backing up to the Minnesota Valley Golf Course. In any of these neighborhoods you can expect to see lush views of trees, parks, water, and even the deer and wild turkeys that populate these areas. Home amenities you can expect include three, four, or even five garage stalls, gourmet kitchens, granite counters, large lots, quiet streets, marble foyers, marble fireplaces, and finished areas up to 7,000 square feet!
Entry level housing in both East and West Bloomington is easier to find. Conditions in the Bloomington real estate market make this the best market for home buyers that you may ever see. Real estate in Bloomington is affordable! If you factor out the auction properties and the $1M+ properties, the average asking price for a single family home of about 2000 finished square feet for about 290K or so. The large majority of these are well built-ramblers built in the sixties that contain large rooms, hardwood floors, and large lots with mature trees. Townhome listings are found in all styles and prices, ranging from luxury hi-rise units and twin homes, to one bedroom condos with underground heated parking.
