A neighborhood shaped by a history of caring
When the Armatage neighborhood first took shape in the 1940s, one woman was instrumental in its development: Maude Armatage, a women's rights advocate and community leader. Maude dedicated much of her life to improving the civic, cultural and educational life of the community that now bears her name. And today, the neighborhood continues to follow in her footsteps. "When a new homeowner moves into the area, the Armatage Neighborhood Association will personally greet them with a welcome basket," says Realtor Jesse Lynch, owner of The Twin Cities Real Estate. Homes here start at $250,000 and go up to $800,000 for newly renovated properties. Lynch says, "Armatage is ideal for those looking for a cute, quiet place with access to the Twin Cities, but removed from all the commotion." It's also only 8 miles away from the Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport.
There are plenty of affordable brick houses in the housing market of Armatage.
The Minneapolis area is constantly building newer modeled homes for incoming & returning locals.

Craftsman style and bungalows in Armatage
The housing market is competitive here: as of 2023, homes sell after being on the market for 18 days, as opposed to the national average of 41. Most properties were built from the 1950s to 1960s, reflected in the dominant architectural styles of Craftsman and bungalows. However, Lynch says there are also some modern options due to the construction of newly renovated homes. Houses here start at $250,000 and can go up to $800,000. Most homes come with lawn space, although some plots may be on the cozier side: "These homes might have a small yard, but people who want to live close to the city don't want the upkeep of a yard anyways; this way, there's not too much lawn care and snow removal," Lynch says.
