Here’s an honest look, whether you’re selling or buying.
What to know
The neighborhood is attached to Folwell Park. Both the park and neighborhood were named for Dr. William W. Folwell. This individual was the first president of the University of Minnesota.
Folwell homes were built at the start of the 20th century with mostly single-family housing. Many of the homes were built in the styles of bungalow or craftsman and are typically one story high with access to garages that are detached from the main house. Alleys are very common within the community. This neighborhood offers good options residentially for its locals, as they enjoy the close-knit culture.
The Folwell neighborhood, while mainly residential, does offer its residents some amenities. The neighborhood is home to numerous places of worship, a few convenience stores and markets, and several small restaurants and local businesses. Additionally, the Folwell neighborhood is within close distance of thousands of other amenities located within Minneapolis.
