Lakefront-living and Prince’s legacy
Named Money magazine’s best place to live in the U.S. in 2021, Chanhassen is known for its music roots and convenient lakefront suburban lifestyle. Residents here capitalize on their proximity to five lakes and easy access to U.S. Interstate 495 for quick 16-mile commutes into downtown Minneapolis. Home of the iconic Paisley Park – the longtime studio and home to the late, great Minnesota native Prince. The studio was converted into a museum after his death in 2016 and fans come from all over the world to pay their respect and get a glimpse of music history. “Chanhassen is a 30-minute drive to downtown Minneapolis, there’s also great public transit and they’re installing a light rail system nearby,” says Realtor Joshua Ives with Edina Realty. “The community is also known for its parks and trails.” Aside from its musical background, Chanhassen offers abundant outdoor-oriented activities from lakeside hiking to fishing off the pier at Lake Susan and sunbathing on the beaches at Lotus Lake. Prince may be their claim to fame, but Chanhassen is a not-so-sleepy suburb with much to offer.
Take in the sights or try your luck fishing at the Lake Susan fishing pier in Chanhassen.
Paisley Park in Chanhassen now serves as a museum to the legendary music artist Prince.

Colonial Revivals and New Traditionals
Homes in Chanhassen are priced competitively and have rebounded since a dip in demand last fall as interest rates were on the rise. “Inventory is rising, but this is still a seller’s market,” Ives says. “Our homes are in high demand; we’re seeing multiple offers and selling above list.” Housing is predominately single-family, with a healthy stock of townhouses and a handful of condos. Many homes here were constructed in the 80s and 90s, however new construction is available in areas like The Park, offering new homes situated next to 100 acres of woods and wetlands. Chanhassen offers a variety of home styles ranging from single family Colonial Revivals and New Traditionals to multi-family townhouses and condos. The community boasts subdivision options from custom non-HOA areas like Knob Hill and Big Woods On Lotus Lake to townhouses in West Park and condos in Powers Ridge. While non-HOA communities are common here, areas like Willowridge are subject to monthly fees that include hazard insurance. With a median sales price of $461,000, homes here range from around $200,000s for a one-bedroom condo to upwards of 2.5 Million for a six-bedroom lakefront New Traditional. Homes here typically offer larger lots with multi-car garages and feature nearby water access.
