The Fox Meadow neighborhood name appointees seemingly couldn’t choose between two existing names that came from the geographical characteristics of Fox Meadow, so they picked the name of the only park in the neighborhood.
If you’re thinking about selling or buying here, here’s what the neighborhood is like and what to know before you tour.
Here’s an honest look, whether you’re selling or buying.

It is bordered on the north and east by Mirror Lake, on the south by Vernon Avenue, and on the west by Blake Road.

Fox Meadow Park: Fox Meadow Park is one of the newly remodeled parks in Edina. It encompasses an area of 4 acres and offers visitors access to a playground, beautiful gazebo, benches, and walking trails. The revitalization of the park was made possible through the donations of nearby neighbors. Cherished by the local community, Fox Meadow Park is an important destination within the Fox Meadow community.

What buyers check before they tour
- Age and updates: Ask when the roof, windows, furnace and water heater were last replaced, and plan a thorough inspection.
- Association: If there’s an HOA, review the fees, what they cover and the reserves before you write an offer.
- Schools: Confirm the assigned schools for any address with the district, since boundaries can change.
