Raymond offers a rural setting still close to modern amenities
From above, Raymond looks like a patchwork of green, yellow and brown. “It’s more of a farming community and a lot of hobby farms,” says real estate agent Karen Kristopeit with Shorewest Realtors. “There are still some full-time farms, but those are dying out a bit.” Compared to nearby cities like Racine and Milwaukee, Raymond residents get more room to spread out, with most properties offering at least an acre, some even more. Still, Raymond’s rural atmosphere doesn’t mean residents are far from amenities. “It’s a rural area, but it’s just off Interstate 94,” Kristopeit says. For commuters, Milwaukee is about 30 minutes away, with Franklin along the way, offering more restaurants, parks and supermarkets on the south side of the city.
Many of Raymond’s homes feature long driveways and privacy landscaping.
Raymond’s farmland includes barns, crops and homes on parcels ranging from 5 to 10 acres.

From 1 acre to over 10 acres of space throughout Raymond
Most homes in Raymond are spread out. Some sit at the end of long driveways lined with homegrown crops, while others are closer to the road, hidden behind trees planted for privacy. “A lot of it includes 5-acre parcels,” Kristopeit says, “and most of them also allow horses.” The extra space is often used to build barns. Bungalows and ranch-style homes typically range from $240,000 to $480,000, while New Traditionals and Colonial Revivals go for $520,000 to $890,000. While uncommon, custom-built homes on 10-plus acres can sell for $1 million to $1.6 million.

Also in Franklin, Mimosa is a local brunch spot that offers a mix of sweet and savory menu items like pancakes, crepes and omelets.
