Western suburb of Minneapolis
Situated along Highway 169, Cedar Manor combines a relaxed suburban lifestyle with an emphasis on outdoor activities. Home to Hannan Lake and bordering the fairways of the Minneapolis Golf Club, many Cedar Manor residents are steps from casting a line or from a golfing legacy that dates back to 1916. Residents here take advantage of the secluded feel without being too far from shopping centers like Knollwood Village or award-winning eateries like Angel Food Bakery & Coffee Bar. “This is an inner-ring suburb, so one of the first stops outside of Minneapolis,” says Realtor Gary Metchnek of Edina Realty. “You’ve got really short commutes if you need to go downtown for work or entertainment.” With easy access to U.S. Interstate-394, 8-mile or 16-minute commutes into downtown Minneapolis are highly accessible.

The majority of homes in Cedar Manor were constructed in 1956, featuring wide streets dotted with architecture common of the time, ranging from single-story Minimal Traditionals and Ranch styles to multi-story split-levels and Colonial Revivals. “Like many communities in St. Louis Park, lots are generally smaller, but Cedar Manor features charming non-rectangular roads that curve, making this area more visually appealing for residents and potential buyers,” says long-time local Ryan Fischer, Realtor with The PRO Team - RE/MAX Results. The real estate market in St. Louis Park is highly competitive, with only about 600 single-family homes. “Almost everything that’s in decent shape and well-priced is going to get multiple offers; as a Realtor, there’s almost no place I’d rather list a property,” says Metchnek. With a median sales price of $430,000, Ranch styles and Minimal Traditionals range from the mid $200,000s to upwards of $800,000, while split-levels and Colonial Revivals range from $400,000 to $600,000. Prospective buyers have their choice of custom-built homes bordering Hannan Lake to golf communities like Westwood Hills Green adjacent to the Minneapolis Golf Club. Homes bordering Hannan Lake often feature private water access and are subject to increased price points ranging from the high $300,000s to upwards of $800,000.

Bike along the Cedar Lake Trail at Texa-Tonka Park
Like many western Minneapolis suburbs, Cedar Manor offers access to the best parks and lakes the Twin Cities have to offer. “Cedar Lake, Lake of the Isles and Bde Maka Ska are three of the city’s most popular recreational lakes, and they’re all directly adjacent,” says Metchnek. The Chain of Lakes is about a 5-mile drive east, while Hannan Lake and Texa-Tonka Park are both within walking distance. Hannan Lake is a private lake that provides water access to its surrounding homes. Texa-Tonka Park offers a jungle gym for children to climb and benches for lakeside chats by the lily-pad-adorned Victoria Lake. The Cedar Lake Trail runs through Texa-Tonka Park, offering immediate access to the paved trails that connect downtown with the western suburbs of Minneapolis. Minneapolis Golf Club neighbors the community, offering a private driving range and an 18-hole course that was fully renovated in 2020. Nature lovers can visit Westwood Hills Nature Center, which features scenic trails around Westwood Lake through forested marshlands and expansive prairies. Visitors can launch canoes onto the lake from the Y dock near the Water garden, stroll along the floating boardwalk and enjoy an on-the-go lunch under the picnic pavilions.
