Seward Park is an urban oasis along Lake Washington, offering residents a rare blend of natural beauty and easy city access. Life here revolves around the nearly 300-acre Seward Park, a lush peninsula with old-growth forest, miles of walking and biking trails, and a peaceful, pebbled shoreline that’s perfect for lakeside picnics or kayakers wanting to slip into the water. Birdwatchers find plenty to marvel at, thanks to the park’s Audubon Center, while families enjoy summer concerts and educational programs.
The tree-lined streets of Seward Park host a mix of classic Craftsman homes and modern architecture, providing options for those seeking character or contemporary design. The neighborhood draws a diverse, close-knit community who frequent local cafés, like the beloved Caffé Vita, or the weekly Columbia City Farmers Market in the nearby Columbia City neighborhood. Residents appreciate how quickly they can reach downtown Seattle or cultural destinations in Rainier Valley.
Families are drawn to highly regarded schools, such as Graham Hill Elementary and the progressive Orca K-8, both fostering a supportive and innovative learning environment. With easy access to markets, public transit, and the peaceful escapes within King County, Seward Park strikes a balance between the tranquility of a lakeside retreat and the convenience of city living.
