Forested peninsula extending north to Dyes Inlet
Located between Kitsap Lake and Evergreen Rotary Park, Marine Drive has numerous outdoor recreation possibilities in the surrounding water and green spaces, like at Dyes Inlet and both Ostrich Bay and Oyster Bay. Despite the neighborhood’s secluded feel among mature cedars and spruces, it remains close to downtown Bremerton, and is just 3 miles from the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard, one of the area’s largest Naval employers.
Marine Drive is just 3 miles from the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard.

Green spaces from Ostrich Bay to Evergreen Rotary
Divided by Highway 3 to the west, N.A.D. Park’s wooded spaces have over 2 miles of dirt trails, including N.A.D. Marine Park’s footpath which runs along Oyster Bay’s shoreline. “The park has to do with the Navy, so there’s a big fighter jet that’s blocked off there in the park, and that’s cool to see when you drive up,” says Valerie Grindley, a broker with Better Properties Real Estate, who has over 6 years of experience. The park’s 50 acres also includes a disc golf course.
Four miles east, boaters can pull up to slips at Evergreen Rotary Park’s 10-acre, waterfront green space. There is also a volleyball court and playground with a geometric climbing structure. The Bremerton Farmers Market is held in the park each Thursday from May to October and includes live music and artisan crafts.

Minimal traditional and million-dollar homes along Marine Drive
Single-family homes built from the 1930s to the 1970s sit among the woods lining Marine Drive. Minimal traditional and ranch-style homes list between $390,000 and $700,000. These homes are positioned closer together, with mailboxes grouped at the ends of driveways. Waterfront properties include colorful Craftsman homes that are priced from $825,000 to $1.4 million.

Commutes from the waterfront down Kitsap Way
Marine Drive runs south from the peninsula’s northern tip to Kitsap Way, an east- and west-bound county thoroughfare that leads 3 miles south to the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard. To the west, Washington state Route 3, locally known as Highway 3, runs north and south, connecting the community with Silverdale in roughly 8 miles. Downtown Bremerton is 3 miles southeast, where ferries travel to Seattle, Port Orchard and Annapolis.
Highway 3 ties Marine Drive to the rest of the Kitsap Peninsula and cities like Silverdale.
Catching the ferry is a breeze and connections the community to the region.
