What Is Foxwood in Chanhassen?
Foxwood is a residential new construction development in Chanhassen, Minnesota, located in Carver County. The community features single-family homes that appeal to a wide range of buyers: families drawn by the Chanhassen/Eastern Carver County school system, professionals seeking proximity to the 494 corridor and Eden Prairie employment centers, and move-up buyers who want a larger home in a well-planned neighborhood.
Chanhassen consistently ranks as one of Minnesota's most desirable cities to live in — and Foxwood sits squarely in the heart of what makes it attractive: good schools, green space, trail access, and a suburban character that feels genuinely livable rather than just developed.
TL;DR: Foxwood is a quality new construction neighborhood in one of the Twin Cities' most desirable suburbs, with strong schools and easy metro access.
Homes, Pricing, and Builder Details
New construction homes in Foxwood are typically priced in the upper $400s to the $600s and above, depending on lot position, floor plan size, and selections. Like all new construction, the advertised base price is a starting point — your final investment will reflect lot premiums and design center choices.
Before you tour the model home, here's what Melissa wants you to know:
Model homes are staged and loaded with upgrades that aren't included in the base price
Every finish you see in the model has a price tag in the design center
Lot premiums for walkout, corner, or view lots can add $20,000–$60,000 to your base price
Builder incentives change quarterly — what your neighbor was offered may not be available now
Melissa tracks active incentive packages across Chanhassen builders so you always know what's currently on the table.
TL;DR: The model home price is not your price. Melissa helps you understand what your real number looks like before you're emotionally committed.
Why Chanhassen?
Chanhassen offers something most suburbs can't: genuine quality of life alongside real metro access. When you buy in Foxwood, you're choosing:
Minnewashta Regional Park and Lake Minnewashta — one of the metro's most beautiful recreational areas, minutes away
Downtown Chanhassen — including the Chanhassen Dinner Theatres, local dining, and a strong civic identity
The Southwest LRT Corridor — planned transit connecting Chanhassen to Eden Prairie and eventually downtown Minneapolis
Eastern Carver County Schools (ISD 112) — a district that consistently earns top rankings statewide
Highway 5 and US-212 access — connecting quickly to Eden Prairie, Minnetonka, and the full southwest metro employment corridor
For buyers who want real suburban quality — not just distance from the city — Chanhassen delivers, and Foxwood is one of its best current new construction options.
What the Brochure Doesn't Tell You
Melissa's job is to tell you what the sales agent won't.
Phase timing affects your options. Foxwood, like most developments, releases lots in phases. Early phases often have better lot selection; later phases sometimes have more competitive incentives as the builder works to close out. Knowing where the community is in its lifecycle helps you time your purchase strategically.
Structural options close early. Decisions about adding a bedroom, a 3-car garage, a finished basement, or a morning room must typically be made at contract — not at the design center. If you wait, those options are gone. Melissa briefs her buyers on structural decisions before the first builder meeting so nothing is missed.
Resale starts at purchase. The decisions you make during the build directly affect what your home is worth when you eventually sell. Melissa helps you think like a future seller while you're still a current buyer — focusing your budget on the upgrades and lot features that buyers will pay for.
HOA rules are worth reading. Foxwood has an HOA. Before you buy, you should understand what's covered, what's restricted, and what the annual cost looks like over a 5-year horizon. Melissa walks her buyers through HOA documents before closing.
