The five highest-priced home sales reported in Minneapolis, Minnesota for the week ending November 1, 2026, came to a combined $8.38 million. All five are single-family homes in the neighborhoods of Lowry Hill, Linden Hills, Kenwood, Brookwood and Lynnhurst.
The group spans more than a century of building, from a home completed in 1906 to one finished in 2013. In between are an architect-designed midcentury home facing a park, a 1920s home on Minnehaha Creek and a 1940s home in Lynnhurst. Edina Realty, Inc. listed three of the five, and Compass listed the other two.

No. 3 — $1,379,000 · 1722 Oliver Ave S, Minneapolis, Minnesota
Carl Graffunder, the Minnesota architect, designed 1722 Oliver Avenue South in 1955, and the home looks out over Kenwood Park. It sold for $1,379,000.
The one-story home follows the midcentury modern approach of simple, open rooms that work hard. Windows placed with care bring in light and frame the old oaks and rolling hills of the park. It was built of block and concrete with energy efficiency in mind, and many of the original materials remain. Later improvements were made with the guidance of architects, and Phillips Gardens designed the private backyard.
The home has four bedrooms, four bathrooms, two wood-burning fireplaces and 3,367 square feet on a 6,534-square-foot lot, with a tuck-under tandem garage for two cars. The property last sold for $895,000 in 2013.
