Shingle Creek is a melting pot of Candlewood and Hartkopf
Shingle Creek is a suburban neighborhood in southwestern Brooklyn Park. Tucked between the communities of Candlewood and Hartkopf, it shares a tendency toward a more youthful crowd. “You get a melting pot of those areas,” says Re/Max Advantage Plus associate Chris Yarbro. “There are a lot of younger professionals and new families out there.” Featuring its namesake creek and a handful of ponds, Shingle Creek offers some natural beauty in addition to its well-maintained midcentury homes. Its central location also provides a straightforward route for Twin Cities commuters.

Ranch-style and split-level homes make up most of the housing styles and run from the high $200,000s to the high $300,000s. Two-story townhouses are also popular and sell for anywhere between the mid-$100,000s and the mid-$200,000s. Higher-priced homes frequently offer a view of one of several small ponds in the area or of Shingle Creek itself.
