Swede Hill is a well kept neighborhood built around Oakwood Cemetery. Housing in the area is a mix of apartment style condos near 35 and single family homes. Given it’s awesome location close to Downtown, you’ll see plenty of new construction – both modern and historic style. Plus, there are several historic homes sprinkled throughout the neighborhood – and even some smaller, bungalow style and colonials, if you’re looking for something with a little more character. Residents are drawn to the mature trees and skyline views that the slight elevation brings, especially from second floor windows. Though there are no sidewalks, the streets are fairly wide and not heavily traveled, so you can still walk to the restaurants and shopping on 11th Street. If you’re looking for an established neighborhood near Downtown in a highly rated section of the Austin ISD, Swede Hill is a great place to start your search.
