Two lakefront homes led the week, followed by a pair of newer homes in Eau Claire and a chalet on 20 wooded acres in Elk Mound.

Chippewa Valley, Wisconsin Top 5 Home Sales: Chippewa Falls Lake Home Leads at $1.0 Million

The five highest-priced home sales reported in Chippewa Valley, Wisconsin for the week ending November 8, 2026 had a combined total of $3.665 million. They spread across Chippewa, Eau Claire and Dunn counties, from lakeshore in Chippewa Falls and New Auburn to a cul-de-sac and a subdivision in Eau Claire and a long stretch of forest in Elk Mound.

Every one of the five is a single-family home, and the group runs from a 1983 one-story to a home finished in 2021. In four of the five sales, the same agent was on both sides of the transaction.
