Seward Park
A peaceful, lakeside haven where nature, community, and city living blend seamlessly.
Centered around its namesake 300-acre park, Seward Park is a neighborhood where old-growth forests, winding trails, and lakefront beaches are just steps from your front door. Classic Craftsman homes and quiet streets set the scene, while the park itself is a playground for outdoor lovers—think birdwatching, biking, and boating with mountain and city views.
