About this Sober House
Pleasantview Home is a men's sober living home in Eden Prairie, Minnesota, in Hennepin County. It is operated by A Way Out Sober Living, which runs a network of certified and uncertified recovery homes across the Twin Cities metro and central Minnesota. Pleasantview Home is the operator's original property and sits on Pleasantview Road on the western edge of the city.
A Men's Sober House on Pleasantview Road
This sober house in Eden Prairie serves men in recovery across six bedrooms and ten beds, with three shared bathrooms. Rooms are offered as doubles or singles, and the monthly fee reflects that choice: a shared room runs less than a private one, which lets a resident scale the cost to what he can carry early on. A $250 application fee applies before move-in. Eden Prairie sits along the Highway 212 and Interstate 494 corridor in western Hennepin County, putting jobs in the Golden Triangle business area and outpatient care in the Twin Cities within a short drive.
What A Way Out Sober Living Provides
A Way Out Sober Living runs Pleasantview Home alongside more than a dozen other houses across the state, from Dassel to Shakopee to Northfield. That scale gives a resident here somewhere to move to if a different house or a different city fits better later, without starting the search for sober housing over from nothing. The operator sets a shared fee structure and shared expectations across its houses, so a transfer does not mean relearning the rules.
Recovery Housing in Hennepin County
Eden Prairie is one of the larger suburbs in Hennepin County, whose seat is Minneapolis, and it functions as its own employment center. Retail, corporate offices and light industry along the 494 corridor mean entry-level and hourly work is close by, and Southwest Transit connects Eden Prairie to downtown Minneapolis for anyone whose treatment provider or court obligations are downtown. For a man leaving treatment who needs a job before he needs anything else, that combination of local work and a transit link to the city covers most of what a first year requires.
Minnesota Sober Home Certification and This Listing
Minnesota's certification program, run through the Minnesota Association of Sober Homes, is voluntary, and Pleasantview Home is not currently listed among the state's certified residences. That is not a mark against the house. A large share of Minnesota's sober housing stock, including houses with long operating histories, has simply not gone through the certification process, and its absence from the roster says nothing about how a given house is run day to day. Anyone comparing options should still ask directly whether a house is certified and what that would mean for accountability.
Applying to a Sober House in Eden Prairie
Applications go through A Way Out Sober Living directly. The questions worth asking match the ones the fee structure raises: whether a shared or private room is available, what the $250 application fee covers, what the house's rules are around curfew and chores, and how a transfer to one of the operator's other Twin Cities or central Minnesota houses would work if this location stops being the right fit.
We seek to reduce the stressors of daily life, allowing sober living residents to focus on getting back on their feet and moving forward. Living here can be summed up as a low-key high style, our house offers an environment of laid-back luxury in a nice neighborhood with quiet streets.
