Imagine a home of your own, with no shared walls, and someone else handling the lawn and the snow. That’s the idea behind a detached townhome.
Brickyard Villas is a neighborhood of single-family detached townhomes on the south side of Chaska, just north of downtown between Yellow Brick Road and Chestnut Street. Lawn care and snow removal are part of the association.
Here’s an honest look, whether you’re selling or buying.
Close to downtown and the parks
Downtown Chaska is less than a mile away. Lions Park, Firemen’s Park, Chaska Community Park and the Chaska Community Center are close, along with Two Twelve Medical Center, Chaska Commons and Hazeltine National. See Chaska parks and trails and Chaska golf courses.
What buyers check before they tour
- Schools: Brickyard Villas is served by School District 112 (Eastern Carver County Schools). Chaska Middle School West is among the nearby schools. Other nearby options include Chaska Elementary, Pioneer Ridge Middle School, Chaska High School and Southwest Christian High School. Boundaries can change, so confirm the assigned schools for any address with the district.
- Association: Ask exactly what the dues cover (lawn, snow, exteriors), the reserve fund and any planned assessments.
- Condition: Roof, windows, mechanicals and water management. Know which parts the association maintains and which are yours.
- Flood zones: Parts of Chaska sit in the Minnesota River lowlands. Check any home near downtown or the creeks on FEMA’s flood map.
A simple plan for your Brickyard Villas move
I’ve been helping people sell and buy homes for about two decades, and I started in the trades. I look at a home the way a builder would, and I’ll tell you plainly what I see.
Getting the house ready, or making it yours
If you’re selling and want repairs handled before buyers see them, Super Crew Contractors can give you an estimate. If you’re ready for something custom, Ivy Lane Homes does luxury home building and remodeling. And a quick coverage check with Intrinsic Insurance before closing can save you a surprise. Nearby, see Copperfield, or read my Chaska homes and market guide.
Super Crew Contractors, Ivy Lane Homes and Intrinsic Insurance are owned by David Olson; you are free to use any contractor, builder or insurer.
