Seven Mile-Rouge offers nature and city access in northwest Detroit
With an array of homes on leafy, residential streets, Seven Mile-Rouge could be the perfect place put down roots in northwestern Detroit. Bordered by Telegraph Avenue on one side and the winding, forested banks of the Rouge River on the other, you’ll get a dose of nature within reach of urban conveniences. “It’s off the beaten path, and you’ve got some well-maintained homes that you could pick up for an affordable price. There are also some really large lots there. It can feel like country living in the city,” says Towanna Jackson of Exp Realty, a longtime Detroit area resident who has been working in real estate since 2016.
