Seward Townhome for Sale

Seward, one of the oldest neighborhoods in Minneapolis, is situated along the western bank of the Mississippi River, just southeast of downtown. The neighborhood is bordered by Hiawatha Avenue, Interstate 94, and the Midtown Greenway, creating a small-town feel despite its proximity to the city center. Seward is known for its extensive biking and walking trails, which encompass over 50% of the area. Home styles here reflect the late 19th-century development, featuring stucco and stone bungalows, prairie styles, Craftsman cottages, minimal traditional styles, and Victorian homes. Unique to Seward are the colorful brick homes along the pedestrian-only Milwaukee Avenue, originally built for railroad workers in the 1870s. Dining options are plentiful, with locally owned restaurants like Café Racer Kitchen, Pizza Lucé, and Rebecca’s Bakery & Café lining East Franklin Avenue. For groceries, residents frequent Seward Community Co-op and the Minnehaha Center. Annual events like Seward Yard Sale Days foster a strong community spirit. Matthews Park and Recreation Center, Merwyn Triangle Park, and Franklin Terrace Off-Leash Dog Park provide ample green spaces for outdoor activities. The neighborhood is served by South High School, which has a high rating. Seward is safer than the national average, and its location allows residents to reach downtown Minneapolis in just 2 miles, with the metro 3 miles away and Minneapolis–Saint Paul International Airport about 7.5 miles away.
