About twenty ramblers and split-levels around Ridgeview Elementary. This little neighborhood is small and close to three parks.

Ridgeview is in west Bloomington, around Ridgeview Elementary between 94th and 98th Streets. It has around 20 single-family homes.

Here’s an honest look, whether you’re selling or buying.

What’s my Ridgeview home worth?A clear, local estimate for your street, not just the city average.

What’s close by

Hyland Greens golf to the south, Tarnhill Park to the east and Hyland Lake Park Reserve to the west offer golf, skiing, fishing and boating. Normandale Village, just east, has coffee, a hardware store, a salon and a fitness club. See Bloomington parks, trails and beaches and community life.

What buyers check before they tour

  • Schools: Ridgeview is served by Bloomington Public Schools (ISD 271). Nearby schools include Ridgeview Elementary, Normandale Hills Elementary, Olson Elementary, Olson Middle School and Thomas Jefferson High School. Boundaries can change, so confirm the assigned schools for any address with the district.
  • 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.

A simple plan for your Ridgeview move

I’ve been helping people sell and buy homes across the Twin Cities for about two decades, and I build and remodel luxury homes too. I’ll help you see both what a property is and what it could be.
