On the coast of the Puget Sound
On the scenic coast of the Puget Sound lies the suburban residential neighborhood of Seahurst. Offering a mix of residential seclusion and a diverse, vibrant community, Seahurst is great for homebuyers seeking either. This quiet neighborhood has winding roads and hilly ridges with views of the water and the Olympic Mountains. In this highly sought-after home market, prices are higher than in nearby neighborhoods, with houses going for as much as $1.2 Million. Most homes in the area draw from the northwest contemporary style, with geometric angles and expansive windows to let in light during Washington's rainy season. Homes near Puget Sound offer expansive views of the Puget Sound, America’s second largest estuary.
Classic Pacific northwestern abodes
Mature conifers and west coast oak trees line the streets of Seahurst. Unimpeded views of the Puget sound increase the value of properties here. Most homes are built in the Craftsman or Midcentury Modern Style, typical of the greater Seattle market. Housing supply is currently limited, with only three properties listed as of February 2024. Most homes are sold in a price range from $400,000 to over $1 million, with a median price of $800,000. A recently sold single-story, three-bedroom Modern Craftsman house closed for $575,000, and represents a more affordable option in the area.
