Minnehaha Creek along the edge and about eighty homes among the trees. Bellgrove sits next to one of Hopkins’ best parks.
Bellgrove is in northern Hopkins, with Minnetonka Boulevard running through the middle and Minnehaha Creek along its edge. It has approximately 80 single-family homes, rambler and traditional styles.
Here’s an honest look, whether you’re selling or buying.
What’s close by
Big Willow Park covers 95 acres along Minnehaha Creek. The Shoppes at Knollwood, about two miles east, has a grocery store, retail and restaurants. Minneapolis Golf Club, Meadowbrook Golf Course and Ridgedale Center are close. See Hopkins parks and trails and community life.
What buyers check before they tour
- Schools: Bellgrove is served by Hopkins Public Schools (ISD 270). Nearby schools include Hopkins High School, Hopkins North Junior High, Eisenhower Elementary and L.H. Tanglen Elementary. Boundaries can change, so confirm the assigned schools for any address with the district.
- Creek and floodplain: For homes near Minnehaha Creek, ask about floodplain status, drainage and any watershed rules before you write an offer.
- Condition: Roof, windows, mechanicals and drainage tell you more about a home’s next ten years than the paint color does. Plan a professional inspection.
