About This Home

A RARE opportunity to own this unique, historical home on MILLIONAIRE'S ROW in downtown Seward! This is one of the oldest homes in Seward, custom-built by Mr. Stewart, who was the secretary of the Alaska Railroad in the early 1900s. The property features a large city lot, a formal front entrance with an enclosed front porch, a grand front living room with coffered ceilings, and a circular turret with some new windows and beautiful views! A large dining area with a built-in hutch, a historic kitchen with some custom cabinets, and a sunken family room with a woodstove for those cozy nights. Some of the floors are beautiful Fir wood. There is a walk-in closet in the master bedroom. The plumbing and electrical have been updated. Additional features are a back patio off the family room, a 2-car garage with a separate shop/craft area, a greenhouse, and a basement. This gem is within walking distance to the waterfront, restaurants, shops, coffee houses, gyms, clubs, and walking/hiking trails for a walkable lifestyle! The interior is ready for a renovation and has exceptional restoration potential. The zoning is Office/Residential, which could allow commercial(BnB) and office development. The basement was hand-dug($30,000 in the early 1980s), with a partially plumbed bathroom, and a cement block foundation was installed. Foam insulation board was added for warmth. The back porch was rebuilt 8-10 years ago. The yard features beautiful, large lilac bushes, rhubarb, an apple tree, a pear tree, raspberries, a large kiwi bush, Peony flowers, a Chive herb box, a potato patch area, a snap pea area, and a greenhouse with a fan-controlled system. This property is ONE OF A KIND!!! Update: The underground fuel tank has been removed, and a new above-ground tank has been installed.
