Washington County · St. Croix River Valley

Where Minnesota
meets the river.

The St. Croix Valley is unlike anywhere else in Minnesota — a stretch of river towns, rolling bluffs, farmland, and deep community roots that draws people in and keeps them here.

A valley worth
knowing well.

We focus exclusively on the St. Croix Valley because we believe real estate is local in the truest sense. Every town here has its own character, its own market, and its own reasons to stay. Stillwater for the history and energy. Marine for the quiet and the land. Scandia for the space and the pace. These aren't interchangeable — and neither is the expertise it takes to buy or sell here well.

Est. 1843 · Washington County

Stillwater,
Minnesota.

Minnesota's birthplace sits high on the bluffs above the St. Croix River, its brick-lined downtown spilling down toward the water. Historic Victorian homes, a thriving main street, and some of the most sought-after real estate in the metro region make Stillwater perennially one of the most desirable places to live in the state.

Known for Historic downtown, lift bridge, bluff-top homes, boutiques and dining

Market Competitive — strong demand, limited inventory, premium for walkable and waterfront

Best for Families, move-up buyers, those relocating from the Cities

Est. 1839 · Washington County

Marine on
St. Croix.

Minnesota's oldest town is also one of its most quietly extraordinary. Tucked between the river and rolling farmland, Marine moves at its own pace — unhurried, rooted, and fiercely independent. Properties here range from riverfront parcels to historic homesteads to sprawling agricultural land, and they rarely come available twice.

Known for River access, historic charm, tight-knit community, William O'Brien State Park

Market Low inventory, high retention — properties held for generations

Best for Buyers seeking land, privacy, and deep community connection

Scandinavian Heritage · Washington County

Scandia,
Minnesota.

Named by the Swedish settlers who broke ground here in the 1850s, Scandia is open sky and rolling fields — a place where the horizon feels wider and the pace feels right. It's one of the last genuinely rural communities within reach of the Cities, and for buyers who want space without sacrifice, it's increasingly hard to overlook.

Known for Scandinavian heritage, farmland, Gammelgården Museum, Big Marine Lake

Market Growing interest — acreage properties and hobby farms in demand

Best for Acreage buyers, equestrian properties, those seeking rural character

Also in the Valley

Bayport, Afton,
and beyond.

The St. Croix Valley extends well beyond its three most storied towns. Bayport and Afton offer river character with a quieter profile. Hudson, Wisconsin sits just across the bridge. We work throughout the Valley — wherever the right property leads.
