A condominium, a newer Eagan estate and three family homes in Mendota Heights, West Saint Paul and Lakeville make up the highest-priced home sales reported in the South Twin Cities Area, Minnesota for the week ending November 8, 2026. All five are in Dakota County, and together they sold for $6.06 million.
Mendota Heights accounts for two of the five. The group spans more than four decades of building, from a home completed in 1970 to one finished in 2018, and in two of the sales the same agent was on both sides.
No. 1 — $1,585,000 · 715 Linden St Unit 204, Mendota Heights, Minnesota
The week’s top sale was not a house on a big lot but a condominium in the Village at Mendota Heights, a mixed-use development that combines residences with boutique shops, restaurants, offices and a central Market Square. The home, built in 2006, sold for $1,585,000. The property last sold for $1.19 million in 2007.
At 3,515 square feet on one level, it is laid out more like a house than a typical condo. Ceilings run 10 feet high and rise to 12 in the main living area, and white oak hardwood floors carry through an open plan. The kitchen is built around a large center island, with a full wet bar nearby, and stone gas fireplaces warm both the living room and the family room. A private office, a den, a mudroom and in-unit laundry round out the main floor.
There are three bedrooms and three bathrooms. The owner’s suite has its own balcony, a walk-in closet and a marble bath with heated floors and a separate tub and shower, and one of the other two bedrooms has its own bathroom with heated floors. Three balconies in all extend the living space outdoors. Below, four heated underground garage spaces come with the unit, and the secured building has an elevator, a car wash and a common garden.
Outside the door, the village is set up for walking, with fountains, native plantings, trails, outdoor concerts and coffee shops, and it is within minutes of downtown St. Paul, Minneapolis, MSP Airport and the Mall of America.
Paul G Dorn of RE/MAX Results and Christopher J Ames were the listing agents, and Adam Dorn of RE/MAX Results represented the buyer. RE/MAX Results had two listings in this Top 5, this one and the No. 4 sale in Mendota Heights.

No. 2 — $1,460,000 · 3784 Wescott Cir, Eagan, Minnesota
Reached by a private driveway in the Willow Ridge At Wescott neighborhood of Eagan, the home sold for $1,460,000. Built in 2018, it is the newest of the five and the largest, with 6,410 square feet, five bedrooms and seven bathrooms on a 0.74-acre lot. The property last sold for $1.185 million in 2020.
A curved staircase with wood railings and iron balusters rises from the foyer. The great room beyond has a coffered ceiling, tall windows looking out to the trees and a stone fireplace that runs from floor to ceiling. The dining room is octagonal, trimmed in millwork and lit by arched windows, and a wine room with wooden bottle racks sits on the main level along with the kitchen and its center island.
Every bedroom has its own bathroom. A main-level bedroom suite, remodeled in 2023, is now used as an office, and upstairs the primary suite has a fireplace of its own and a walk-in closet fitted with built-ins and a storage island. The finished walkout lower level is given over to recreation: a wet bar, a home gym and a dedicated theater room. Outside are a deck, a patio, a fire pit and a hot tub on a flat backyard, and the four-car garage is attached.
The setting is close to Lebanon Hills Regional Park, Patrick Eagan Park, TCO Stadium and the airport. Lisa A. Handley of RE/MAX Advantage Plus was the listing agent, and Sally English of Coldwell Banker Realty represented the buyer.

No. 3 — $1,250,000 · 1555 Smith Ave S, West Saint Paul, Minnesota
A long, tree-lined private drive leads to this West Saint Paul home, which sits on a rise at the end of it on 0.98 acres near the Mendota Heights border and Somerset Country Club. The home, built in 1970 and the oldest of the five, sold for $1,250,000. The property last sold for $588,000 in 2006.
Since then it has been extensively renovated. The kitchen was redesigned around an oversized island with Cambria quartz counters, double ovens and an adjoining wet bar, and the main level has new hardwood floors and millwork. A former porch became a heated four-season room with a full wall of windows onto the wooded rear yard, and a vaulted sunroom also looks out over the pool.
The primary suite was reconfigured under vaulted, beamed wood ceilings. Its walk-in closet has a chandelier over a center island and a transom window above a barn door, and the bath has a skylight, a zero-entry shower, a soaking tub and heated tile floors that continue into the four-season room. The home has five bedrooms, four bathrooms and 4,618 square feet, with three fireplaces and a finished walkout lower level with a recreation room and its own wet bar.
Outside, a Trex deck with cable railings steps down from the dining area toward a heated in-ground saltwater pool set in stamped concrete, with a misting system and mature landscaping around it and a fire pit tucked into the trees beyond. Dodge Nature Center and Lilydale Regional Park are close by, as is the airport.
The Hames-McDonough Real Estate Group of Keller Williams Premier Realty was the listing agent, and Amanda Buhman of Compass represented the buyer.
