Search Brainerd Homes for Sale
The Brainerd real estate market, located in central Minnesota’s Crow Wing County, has a long history of significance for the region. It was first spotted in 1805 by pioneers searching for the Mississippi river and many battles were fought with the Native Americans in a struggle for control of the area. Today, though, Brainerd residents live in a town that offers diversity and quietness in a close-knit community setting. Brainerd is also the home of the Brainerd International Raceway, a 3-mile drag strip and go-kart track that often hosts the NHRA Nationals. This is an ideal way to spend a Saturday afternoon watching the competing racers and people come from the surrounding communities to enjoy what it has to offer. Brainerd also includes land on both sides of the Mississippi River, making it a unique town. There are also more than 400 lakes within a short drive from Brainerd that serve the community for recreational purposes and fun.

Finding a variety of Brainerd homes for sale is not difficult to do, but most of the homes are individual properties that are not situated within a traditional neighborhood or community. As such, they have large areas of land and many of them are built along the shores of one of area lakes. Brainerd homeowners also have access to several unique places to visit and activities to do. The Cuyuna County State Recreation Area is a huge natural preserve that is part of the Minnesota state park system. Located on Highway 210, the park extends into parts of the Cuyuna Iron Range – an area that was once a mining region. The Northland Arboretum is also nearby and offers almost 600 acres of nature reserves. Since 1972, this converted landfill has been a popular place for hiking, skiing and many other outdoor activities throughout the year.
Brainerd schools typically have about 17 students for each classroom and teacher. Since the district can afford to spend about $6,000 for each student in its schools, parents can be confident that their children get the latest and best resources to achieve academic success. Schools in the area include Brainerd Senior High, Garfield Elementary and Harrison Elementary School, among several other choices in the public and private sector.
