Lannon has evolved from a quarry town to a growing exurb

Named for the limestone quarried here for generations, Lannon is a village northwest of Milwaukee near Menomonee Falls. Once known primarily for its surface mining industry, the community has grown into a popular place to live thanks to its mix of newer construction, highly rated schools and easy access to major highways. Residents also enjoy parks, locally owned restaurants and a small-town feel.

New construction dominates Lannon's single-family market

Because of a recent uptick in development, homes in Lannon tend to be newer, with a median construction year in the early 2020s. Even so, Jeremy Rynders, a Realtor with Keller Williams Realty, says the village has held onto more of its small-town character than many nearby cities. “A new wave of homebuilding in neighboring communities has carried into Lannon, but there’s not as much as in Menomonee Falls or the medium-sized Sussex,” Rynders says.

Lannon offers a wide selection of condos, which generally sell between the low $300,000s and upper $600,000s, depending on size and included amenities. Single-family homes are typically contemporary Craftsman and ranch-style builds, with prices ranging from the mid-$300,000s to mid-$500,000s. It's still possible to find older homes with original Lannon stone exteriors, though they rarely come on the market. The median sale price is in the high $500,000s, making the village generally more expensive than Menomonee Falls, Sussex and Pewaukee, but less expensive than Lisbon.

Quarry lakes, trails and 500 acres to explore

Lannon Village Park has baseball fields, a playground and a volleyball court. Just outside the city, Menomonee Park has nearly 500 acres of woodlands and former quarry grounds. A 16-acre lake created from a reclaimed mining pit draws swimmers and kayakers, while rolling hills provide terrain for hiking and cross-country skiing. The Bugline Trail follows a former railroad path for nearly 16 miles. This paved route passes through wooded stretches and offers views of the active Lannon Quarries.
