Girard Park East is a garden-style condominium complex in Bloomington, Minnesota, constructed in 1977 and composed primarily of low-rise buildings clustered around landscaped ponds and walking paths. Units are marketed mostly as one- and two-bedroom floorplans (some with an additional den) that feature elements such as vaulted ceilings in upper-level homes, screened or glass-enclosed porches, in-unit laundry rooms, wood-burning fireplaces in some units, and plentiful closet/storage options including separate storage lockers. Exterior materials include block, cement board, fiber board, stone and wood, and common areas show ongoing maintenance like refreshed paint and carpeting. The community offers extensive onsite amenities: both indoor and outdoor pools, a hot tub/sauna, exercise room, tennis court, party/meeting room, guest suite, heated underground parking with a car wash bay, and managed grounds with gardens and ponds. Accessibility features appear in several units through wider doorways and updated baths. The association provides cable in the fees and operates building security and elevator access where applicable. Located in west Bloomington, the development sits near shopping, restaurants, trails, major highways and the airport, presenting a low-maintenance, amenity-rich option for buyers seeking garden-condo living with ample communal recreation and storage conveniences.
