About 90 rambler and traditional homes in Chanhassen’s northeast corner, about five minutes from downtown. Near Mountain is established and convenient.
Near Mountain is in the northeast corner of Chanhassen, off Pleasantview Road just west of Highway 101. It has about 90 single-family homes.
Here’s an honest look, whether you’re selling or buying.
What’s close by
North Lotus Lake Park, Lake Ann Park, Lake Minnewashta Regional Park and the Minnesota Landscape Arboretum are close. Downtown Chanhassen and Market Square, about five minutes south, have Target, Byerlys, Cub Foods, Axel’s, Chanhassen Cinema and the Chanhassen Dinner Theatres. See Chanhassen parks and trails and community amenities.
What buyers check before they tour
- Schools: Northern Chanhassen sits near the line between Eastern Carver County Schools (ISD 112) and Minnetonka Public Schools (ISD 276). Minnetonka Middle School West is one of the closest schools, and other options include Chanhassen Elementary, Bluff Creek Elementary, Chanhassen High School, St. Hubert Catholic School and Chapel Hill Academy. Confirm the assigned district and schools for any Near Mountain address before you buy.
- 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.
