Newer two-story and craftsman homes with a neighborhood park nearby. Amber Point has room to grow into.
Amber Point is in southern Waconia, between Highway 10 and 10th Street. It has about 80 single-family homes, mostly two-story and craftsman styles, built more recently than many Waconia neighborhoods.
Here’s an honest look, whether you’re selling or buying.
What’s close by
Clearwater Mills Park, about 2 acres with open lawn and a playground, is nearby, along with Wildhurst Park, Fox Run Park and Waconia City Park. Mackenthun’s and other everyday stops are close. See Waconia parks, trails and beaches.
What buyers check before they tour
- Schools: Amber Point is served by Waconia Public Schools (ISD 110). Southview Elementary is the closest school, and other options include Waconia Middle School, Waconia High School and St. Joseph Catholic School. Boundaries can change, so confirm the assigned schools for any address with the district.
- Newer homes: Ask about the age of the roof and mechanicals, any remaining builder warranty, and whether there’s an association and what it covers.
A simple plan for your Amber Point move
I’ve been helping people sell and buy homes across the west metro and lake country for about two decades, and I started in the trades. I’ll look at a home the way a builder would and tell you plainly what I see.
