Farmington Real Estate - Northstar Minnesota MLS Member
Farmington, once a sleepy agricultural village, has grown in the past two decades to become a commuter suburb. The old part of the city, with lots of history, is located to the southeast, while recent developments have been created in the northwest section. Plenty of open land should encourage further development. The Vermillion River runs through the older portion of the community.

About 10 miles on County Road 50 takes commuters to I-35W on their way to the Minneapolis St. Paul metro area. While the commute is relatively long, the advantages of living far from the urban pace continue to attract new residents.

The schools range from average to very good, with the city's high school ranked in the average zone. The city is proud of its heritage. The old downtown district is well preserved and is a destination for visitors.

Under $150,000, you'll find vacant building lots, a few townhomes and condominiums, older homes in the original part of the city, and some more modern homes. Some foreclosures that may represent excellent values. A wide range of single-family homes, built between the 1960s and today are available in the $150-250,000 price range, becoming more spacious and more recent as the price increases. Price reductions have brought additional homes into this range as well.
