In South Loop, it couldn't be easier to get around
Fun at the mall isn't the only thing that makes this neighborhood attractive. “What brings people here is an ease of life,” says Compass Realtor Joseph Perriello. “It’s either young professionals who use the light rail to get to work or the airport or sometimes a second, third or fourth home for people – it’s a lifestyle thing with having everything closer to you and not needing a car as much.” In fact, Bloomington Central Station is the beating heart of this bustling Midwest metropolis, shuffling people in and out day and night. Just 10 miles from downtown Minneapolis and five miles to the airport, South Loop is one of the most convenient locations in the metro area with its multiple light rail stops and unparalleled connectivity.
Residents can use the Lightrail for commuting to Minneapolis from the South Loop neighborhood.

Condos are the name of the game in this area
Housing inventory in this area primarily consists of two condominium buildings: Appletree Condominiums and Reflections at Bloomington. Appletree was built in the late 80s, but many units have been rehabbed and refreshed. “A big benefit of this building is that its back is facing the Minnesota Wildlife Refuge, so you have a patio overlooking untouched nature right next to the biggest mall in North America,” Perriello says. Units at Appletree average $250,000. Reflections is a contemporary condo building built in 2005. This modern industrial building has 263 heavily concrete units that provide insulation from neighbors. Units here average $430,000, with penthouse units selling for as much as $750,000. The area also contains a handful of ranch styles and two-story houses with colonial influences that range in price between $350,000 to $500,000.
The Reflections Condominium Complex has two towers with panoramic views in South Loop.
The Appletree Condominiums have an expansive view of the the wildlife refuge.
