Click a column heading to sort. Each address opens the listing's own page with photos, the county record and the full payment breakdown. Estimates use the Freddie Mac average 30-year fixed rate of 7.24 percent for the week of October 29, 2026 (15-year 6.60 percent), property tax computed on each city parcel's 2026 county assessed value as a homestead at certified payable-2026 rates (township parcels use the county's current bill; unmatched or farm parcels use Zillow's effective rate), and homeowners insurance at the Minnesota average of about $8.00 per $1,000 of dwelling coverage (Insure.com, August 2026; dwelling coverage set to the assessor's building value). The USDA column is the Rural Development guaranteed loan for which Kenyon addresses are eligible: nothing down, a 1 percent guarantee fee financed into the loan and a 0.35 percent annual fee. No HOA dues, no private mortgage insurance (20 percent down avoids it), no special assessments, and no points. Rates change weekly; lenders quote your own.
Zillow listings with a Kenyon address as of 2026-11-01. Asking prices in 2026 have run 20–70 percent above the county's assessed values; sales close at a median 113 percent of assessment. See recent sales.

What it costs to own
A $200,000 homesteaded house pays about $2,850 a year in property tax at 2026 rates, of which about $1,450 goes to the city (estimator). Utilities from the city for a typical household run around $150–$200 a month for electric, water, sewer, storm and garbage (calculator). Connection fees on a new house are $2,050 plus tax. Homes are older than the state average: the median was built in 1962, and the county's records show two building waves, the 1900s–1920s and the 1970s, before the subdivisions of the 2000s.
Lots and new construction
The assessor's rolls show 33 vacant residential parcels inside the city, but a realtor told the council in August 2026 that about eight are actually for sale. Seven are in Countryside Meadow, five of them held by Bigelow & Lennon Construction since April 2024; the city itself owns townhome lots at 421 and 423 Fawn Run. The council priced the 18-acre Hinderaker tract south of 8th Street at $275,000 with a preliminary plat by the city engineer; it is unfunded. Kenyon Crossings, 36–38 units at 127 Gunderson Boulevard with a $1.855 million TIF, is the only multi-family project underway.
