Lake Washington Waterfront

From Kenmore to Renton

Which waterfront community will you call home?

Lake Washington is 22 miles long, spanning from Kenmore, Lake Forest Park, and Kirkland at the northern end down to Seattle, Renton, and Bellevue at the southern end. 

Mercer Island

Starting with the only community that is *in* Lake Washington, Mercer Island is home to many waterfront properties. Accessible only by bridge or by boat, this city of 25,000 is centrally located.

South Seattle

For the purposes of discussing waterfront Lake Washington properties, we will refer to everything south of the I-90 floating bridge as “South Seattle” – this includes the Mt Baker, Seward Park, Rainier Valley, Rainier Beach, and Lakeridge neighborhoods.

Central Seattle

The waterfront properties on Lake Washington in the city of Seattle located between the two floating bridges. This includes homes, condos, and land in the Leschi, Madrona, and Madison Park neighborhoods.

North Seattle

All waterfront properties on Lake Washington north of the 520 floating bridge. This includes the homes, condos, and land in the U District, Laurelhurst, Windermere, Sand Point, and Matthews Beach neighborhoods.

Lake Forest Park

A city of just 13,000, Lake Forest Park has a lot of coastline along Lake Washington that is home to many waterfront properties.

Kenmore

Sitting at the northernmost point of Lake Washington, the city of Kenmore has many waterfront homes and condos.

Kirkland

There are a multitude of waterfront properties in Kirkland, including in Juanita Bay.

Yarrow Point, Hunts Point, Medina

This triad of small towns, adjacent to Bellevue and Kirkland, features some of the most expensive real estate in the country. 

Bellevue

From Beaux Arts Village to Newport Shores and beyond, Bellevue has a plethora of waterfront opportunities.

Renton

Last, but certainly not least, is the city of Renton, which includes a long stretch of Lake Washington waterfront and many beautiful waterfront properties.
