Spring Hill Park is a tranquil suburban neighborhood that offers convenient commutes around the Twin Cities while providing homeowners with a strong community spirit. “The people I grew up with are all very good friends of mine still, so I figured we would probably find a similar experience, and we have, so it’s great,” says AJ Pettersen, a Spring Hill Park resident and team leader at eXp Realty. “In the summers, most Friday nights, we get together with five or six other families, sometimes a bigger group. There are lots of people to spend time with and have our kids grow up together.” The community is centered around its namesake park, which has room for a variety of activities. The natural setting isn’t limited to the park; dense trees and spacious lots fill the neighborhood, offering a quiet place to call home while still close to major highways and dining destinations.

Suburban homes fill the tree-covered lots in Spring Hill Park
Spring Hill Park features midcentury ranch-style, split-level and two-story traditional houses. Many of the homes were built by tract builders in the 1960s, so floorplans are often similar, and Pettersen says there are very few custom houses in the area. The large lots are covered with mature trees, adding plenty of shade during the spring and summer. Homeowners have spacious lots that provide room for features like pools or large gardens. Houses under 2,000 square feet typically cost between $340,000 and $500,000, while larger homes can sell for $515,000 to $820,000. The area also includes some townhouses that range from $300,000 to $400,000. The neighborhood has a CAP Index Crime Score of 2 out of 10, lower than the national average of 4.
