York Homes for Sale

York is a historic residential neighborhood in Bellingham, located near downtown and Western Washington University. The area is known for its homes that date back to the late 19th and early 20th centuries, including those that are Craftsman and bungalows. Victorian homes are also common. The neighborhood’s southwest region is closer to the college campus and popular among students. The area’s schools are highly rated, including Lowell Elementary, Fairhaven Middle and Sehome High. York has a strong sense of community, fueled by local events such as the annual York Yard Crawl and the presence of Nelson’s Market, a neighborhood staple since 1895. While there are few green spaces, the Rock Hill Park open space and the York Community Farm are in the area. Interstate 5 is nearby, so some homes, particularly those in the eastern region, may be affected by noise pollution. Residents can easily access downtown Bellingham’s dining and shopping options, including Cafe Rumba and Aslan Brewing Company. Locals can navigate the neighborhood and nearby areas without a car, using the area's ample bike lanes and sidewalks. Key amenities include the PeaceHealth Saint Joseph Medical Center and the Bellingham International Airport.
