Cornwall Park Home for Sale

Cornwall Park is a neighborhood, approximately 2 miles from downtown Bellingham, defined by its namesake park and the PeaceHealth Saint Joseph Medical Center, the city's sole hospital. The area is a convenient location for medical professionals, because it is near the hospital and several smaller medical facilities. Noise pollution from ambulances and medical evacuations can be an issue for residents near the hospital. The neighborhood's southern region is primarily residential, and it includes many Craftsman bungalows, midcentury Minimal Traditional ranch-style homes and larger Victorian-inspired houses. Streets in this area often show signs of wear, with patched potholes and cracks, but ample street parking is available. Parkview Elementary School is a draw for families, and students may progress to the highly rated Whatcom Middle and Bellingham High schools. The neighborhood is well-connected with bike lanes, walking trails and public transportation provided by the Whatcom Transportation Authority. Local amenities include mom-and-pop shops and casual eateries along Meridian Street, including Diamond Jim’s Grill and Earl’s Bike Shop. Cornwall Park also boasts smaller green spaces like the Cornwall Rose Garden and Broadway Park. Cornwall Memorial Park spans 70 acres, with walking trails, playgrounds and a popular 9-hole disc golf course. The Bellingham Golf & Country Club is just west of the neighborhood.
