Eden Prairie is one of the top places to live not just in Minnesota but in the entire country. Don’t believe us? Well, as recently as 2016, Money Magazine listed it #2 on its annual list of Best Places to Live in the U.S., just behind Columbia (MD) and ahead of Plano (TX).

In addition, popular rankings and review website niche.com also named Eden Prairie the top place to live in Minnesota and the 15th best place to live in America on its 2017 Best Places to Live list, further demonstrating its appeal, desirability, and affordability.

But if you’re in the market for a new home and have already narrowed down your list to Eden Prairie, just where might you begin looking for that perfect new place to live? Although the list is actually fairly extensive, here are a few top neighborhoods and communities we recommend.

Bearpath Golf and Country Club

Golf course communities tend to have an upscale vibe that rarely disappoints and Bearpath Golf and Country Club is certainly no exception. Home to some of Eden Prairie’s most expensive homes and estates, luxury home buyers shouldn’t have much trouble finding something here that fits all their needs and wants.

The Woods at Riley Creek

If you’re a fan of newer construction homes, definitely give The Woods at Riley Creek a closer look. Homes here are expansive and loaded with custom features and finishes, and lot sizes are also pretty expansive for a newly developed community as well.

Blossom Hill

If you’re looking for a luxury home in Eden Prairie but may not want to go over that million dollar threshold, see what’s currently available in Blossom Hill. Chances are you may find a new construction opportunity or two in the $700,000 to $800,000 range, or maybe even a slightly older home for less that still has plenty of upside.
