Welcome to Downtown Kenmore! Located at the heart of this laid-back city, Downtown Kenmore refers specifically to the 10 acres surrounding the intersection of 68th Avenue Northeast and Northeast 181st Street. Featuring a large town square complete with commercial retailers, residential spaces and proximity to all things fun, Downtown Kenmore is perfect for folks who want walkability and direct access to all of the hustle and bustle.
Housing in Downtown Kenmore consists primarily of condo and apartment options, ranging from high-rise complexes to the smaller garden-style buildings, as well as mobile home options. For those looking to buy, homebuyers will also find a wide range of single-family homes, townhouses and condo options in the near vicinity. Prospective buyers can choose from mid-century designs or opt for a modern farmhouse style. The average listing price here is $1.1 million, but price points can vary from the low $500,000s to over $2.6 million depending on the age, size and location of the property. Most homes here feature lush landscaping and well-tended gardens, plus tall handsome deciduous trees.
Locals can grab groceries at Safeway, mail a package at The UPS Store, then pop over to the Kenmore Library to pick up something to read. Casual spots like Zeek’s Pizza or Icihiban Teriyaki have good eats, and Stoup Brewing Kenmore is great for a pint. The Hangar is the city’s communal gathering place. Designed to look like an airplane hangar, vican sip on an espresso, read a book or meet up with friends in this outdoor open-air space.
Students in Downtown Kenmore attend public schools within the Northshore School District, which Niche ranks as Washington’s third-best school district with an overall A-plus grade. Nearby schools include Kenmore Elementary (A-minus), Kenmore Middle (A) and Inglemoor High (A). Serving over 1,500 students in ninth through twelfth grades, Inglemoor High offers AP coursework, an International Baccalaureate program and early-college credit opportunities for students, in addition to its standard curriculum. The Northshore School District is known statewide and nationally for its academic excellence, and serves more than 20,000 students in Kenmore, Bothell, Woodinville and the surrounding areas. And with an overall district ranking of ‘A-plus’ from Niche.com, it should come as no surprise that all three of these schools also received a ranking of ‘B-plus’ or higher, respectively.
Downtown is within a mile of popular Log Boom Park. Located on the shores of Lake Washington, this park offers residents just under 4 acres of waterfront to explore. Enjoy the beach, take a dip in the lake or hike one of the local trails. For those who love fishing, stroll down to the dock and cast out a line. The Burke-Gilman Trail passes through Log Boom Park and offers a total of 19 miles between Kenmore and Bothell for hiking, biking or skating. Boaters can hit the water using Kenmore’s public launch.
Major area employers like Microsoft, Amazon, Google and Boeing, as well as Kenmore Air and Kenmore Camera, are nearby. Commuters can utilize public transit systems. With both the King County Metro service and the Sound Transit services, commuters can hop on the Link light rail, the Sounder train or the ST express bus to get where they need to be. Or for those who prefer to drive into Seattle, plan for a roughly one-hour commute via Interstate-5 South.
