Lively suburb along Centennial Lake
Pedal boat under the brick-laid arches that navigate the namesake Lake at Centennial Lakes Park, the 24-acre gathering hub in the backyard of some neighbors. Centennial Lakes offers a lively atmosphere, urban amenities and a thriving outdoor scene. “It’s highly walkable. You have shops and restaurants just steps away,” says Laura Keogan, Realtor with Realty Group LLC. “And there’s all sorts of wonderful things to do around the park and the lake, like pedal boating and mini-golf.” Edina visitors flock to the bustling retailers along France Avenue South, while Centennial residents enjoy people-watching from the park benches in their backyard. “It’s known for its walkability, and residents love to be able to walk or drive to things fast,” says Amy Kerber, Realtor with Coldwell Banker Realty. “People come from all over the Twin Cities to mini golf and ice skate at Centennial Lakes Park.” Staples like Ciao Bella and the summer event series at Centennial Lakes Park play a role in maintaining an active pulse within the community. And with U.S. Interstate 494 along the southern border, 10-mile commutes into downtown Minneapolis are accessible within a 20-minute drive.
Lakefront condos and multi-family townhouses
Turning off the busy throughways in Centennial Lakes, you’ll find the area populated by bustling office complexes and sprawling condo communities. The real estate market in Centennial Lake is attractive to first-time buyers and young professionals, as average home values are lower than those in the Minneapolis Metro Area. Centennial Lakes features a wide selection of housing options, from multi-family condos and townhouses to single-family ramblers and Cape Cods. With a median sales price of $200,000, multi-family options range from the mid $100,000s for a one-bedroom condo to upwards of $2 Million for a townhouse with waterfront views of Centennial Lake. “Condos in Centennial Lakes tend to sell faster than any other community in Edina,” says Kerber, who has been selling in Edina for over 22 years. “Buyers love the flowers and trees and landscaping, along with amenities like free membership to Edinborough Park.” While the area is primarily made up of condos and apartments, single-family options are available east of York Avenue, ranging from the low $300,000s for a two-bedroom Cape Cop to upwards of $800,000 for a three-bedroom rambler.
