    Set just west of downtown Minneapolis, 55405 spans leafy, historic enclaves like Lowry Hill, Kenwood, Bryn Mawr, and Harrison, where grand turn-of-the-century homes mingle with walkable blocks, lakes, and trails. Expect true four seasons—snowy, cozy winters and lake-breezy summers—plus an arts-forward vibe anchored by the Walker Art Center and the Minneapolis Sculpture Garden, with Lake of the Isles, Cedar Lake, Bryn Mawr Meadows, and the Cedar Lake Regional Trail close by for biking, running, and cross-country skiing. Coffee culture and dining feel neighborly: Spyhouse and Cuppa Java for caffeine, Sebastian Joe’s for scoops, Bryn Mawr Pizza & Deli and local bistros along Hennepin and Penn, and Utepils Brewing for a post-trail pint. Everyday needs are easy with Bryn Mawr Market nearby and larger grocers like Lunds & Byerlys and Whole Foods a short hop, plus quick access to I-394/I-94 and downtown transit. Pet- and family-friendly energy, tree-lined streets, and creative spirit define the lifestyle. Per Zillow’s market trends, recent months show a median rent around the upper $1,000s, with most listings roughly $1,300–$3,200 depending on size and finish.
