About forty townhomes and forty single-family homes south of 98th Street, with a 19-acre park in walking distance. Cavell gives you options in northwest Bloomington.
Cavell is in northwest Bloomington, south of West 98th Street between Bloomington Ferry Road and Highway 169.
Here’s an honest look, whether you’re selling or buying.
What’s close by
Bloomington Ferry Road Park, about 19 acres, is within walking distance. Hyland Lake Park Reserve and Hyland Ski Area are close, and Valley West Shopping Center has a grocery store, food, a coffee shop and a fitness center. See Bloomington parks, trails and beaches and community life.
What buyers check before they tour
- Schools: Cavell is served by Bloomington Public Schools (ISD 271). Nearby schools include Poplar Bridge Elementary, Ridgeview Elementary, Normandale Hills Elementary, Olson Middle School and Thomas Jefferson High School. Boundaries can change, so confirm the assigned schools for any address with the district.
- Association: Ask for the association documents, current dues, what they cover, the reserve fund and any planned assessments. A good townhome is also a good association.
- 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.
