A blend of urban convenience and natural beauty
Linden Park Condominiums is situated in the Bitter Lake neighborhood, an area rich in history and natural beauty. The neighborhood, named after the nearby 20-acre Bitter Lake, originated as a logging settlement in the 19th century. Today, it offers a unique blend of suburban tranquility and urban accessibility.
For outdoor enthusiasts, the area provides numerous options. Bitter Lake Playfield, just a short walk away, features athletic courts, a sizeable playground, and a wading pool. The Interurban Trail, a remnant of the area's transportation history, now serves as a popular route for walking, jogging, and cycling. Carkeek Park, a 220-acre expanse of forests, meadows, and beaches, is only a short drive away, offering stunning views of Puget Sound and the Olympic Mountains.
Shopping and dining options abound in the vicinity. An Amazon Fresh grocery store is conveniently located nearby, providing fresh produce and everyday essentials. For those who prefer specialty grocers, Sprouts Farmers Market is within walking distance. Aurora Avenue, the central commercial street, hosts a variety of retail options including Lowe's Home Improvement, Ross Dress for Less, and Office Depot.
The culinary scene in Bitter Lake caters to diverse tastes. Pho Tic Tac, a no-frills Vietnamese noodle house, is a local favorite for its authentic soups and spring rolls. For Mexican cuisine, El Camion offers delicious street-style tacos and burritos.
Families with children will find quality educational options in the area. Broadview-Thomson K-8 School, rated B on Niche, is within walking distance. For high school students, the highly-rated Ingraham High School, an International Baccalaureate World School, is nearby.
