Seattle Waterfront Real Estate

There’s a good reason Seattle is often referred to as the “Emerald City,” it’s surrounded by water, including Lake Washington, the Puget Sound, Lake Union and countless smaller lakes, as well as lush greenery all year round. Then, there are the mountains that can be seen in every direction: the Cascades to the east, the Olympics to the west, with Mount Rainier looming over it all. Those who own Seattle waterfront real estate enjoy having a wealth of outdoor activities at their door, including kayaking, canoeing, paddle boarding, sailing and just about anything you can dream up on the water. It’s also a city that’s very bike-friendly with a number of new “biker only” lanes painted bright green for commuters as well as the 27-mile Burke-Gilman Trail for cycling, walking and jogging.
