When buying or building a new home, there are many decisions you have to make. While they are all important, one of the most essential is “Where should we live?”
There’s a reason the top rule of real estate is “Location, location, location.” Where you live is everything. It determines the type of neighborhood you have, what school options are available to your kids, where you quickly go to grab food after work, how far you have to travel to run errands, and how safe your family will be.
We are thrilled to say our Scenic Bay Estates community in Lakeville addresses all of these concerns and gives families a fabulous place to call home. Why? Check out some of the top advantages of buying a new house in Lakeville, MN.
One of the biggest reasons to buy a new home in Lakeville, MN is its crime rate. It is 4.4 times smaller than the national average! Crime rates have dropped over the past several years. This makes it a safe place to raise a family and allow your kids to actually be kids without fretting too much about their safety.
Lakeville is pleasantly located near lakes and parks, yet it is close enough to Minneapolis and St. Paul to enjoy some of the area’s top restaurants, see a Twins game, or commute to work. It’s also close to nearby Eagan, which has grown in recent years with the building of Vikings Lakes, which houses the Vikings practice facility.
When selecting a home, it’s easy to fall in love with a design and a neighborhood and forget to look at an important detail – the schools. Families can relax - Lakeville has great schools. In addition to top-rated elementary and middle schools, it has two highly touted high schools in Lakeville North and Lakeville South. With great athletic programs and academics, many families move to Lakeville FOR the schools.
Although Lakeville has grown immensely in recent years, it has a close-knit community. There are numerous neighborhood events throughout the year, including a week-long celebration in the summer called Pan-O-Prog. Each year the festivities feature daily events, including a large carnival and fireworks.
