The Northlake Terrace neighborhood, part of the city of Kenmore, became a city as recently as 1998. It can be found near where Lake Washington and the Sammamish River merge. There are plenty of trees and greenery across the area, with trees that are often taller than the buildings. “We have a lot of wildlife, you see eagles and always see something different every day,” says resident Eva Szorenyi with Realogics Soetheby’s International Realty. “It is so beautiful every day, and it is never the same thing.” Another perk, living in Northlake Terrace, you are only 14 miles away from downtown Seattle, and just another 47 miles from Tacoma.

You will find many styles of homes in the neighborhood. The area has various townhouses and condo options. Prices on these homes range from $250,000 up to $800,000. If you are looking for something more private, the neighborhood has single-family homes centered in cul-de-sacs. The prices on these homes range from around $650,000 and go as high as the $2 million range. Many of these homes are newly constructed homes and feature driveways and street parking. “They have spent a lot of time developing lately,” Szorenyi says. “They built in all new sidewalks, bike trails and new construction. The landscaping is just beautiful.”

Students will start their educational journeys at Kenmore Elementary School, which has an A-minus Niche grade and a 16-1 student-to-teacher ratio. Their next stop will be at Kenmore Middle School, which earns a Niche grade of an A-minus in academics, including a high score for girls’ and boys’ athletic participation, across sports like basketball, volleyball, wrestling and soccer. Shortly thereafter, students will then start progress to Inglemoor High School, ranked 25th among the state’s 447 public high schools, which has an overall A Niche grade and stands out in areas like college preparation initiatives.

If you are looking for somewhere to go for dinner, you will have plenty of restaurant options. Cedar and Elm restaurant offers a scenic view and is a popular destination for dinner. Breweries are common in the area. Stoup Brewing Company is a local establishment that not only serves up craft beer but also pub fare favorites like burgers and fries. When you need groceries or other household items, Grocery Outlet and Safeway are the go-to options in the area.

Nature and recreation are bonuses of the Kenmore and Northlake Terrace lifestyle. There are many parks across the area, including Log Boom Park, which was recently developed and has a big hut to barbeque, and trails for bicyclists and walkers to explore. “The community association recently had a bunch of volunteers help prepare the park for winter,” Szorenyi says. “That shows just how tight knit of a community this is.” Outdoor enthusiasts will want to visit Wallace Swamp Creek Park, a minimally developed space with wooded areas, walking paths, trails and about 25 acres of open space. Additionally, Swamp Creek runs through the middle of the park.

Being so close to Lake Washington and the Sammamish River, water recreation activities are a mainstay in the community. The Kenmore boathouse offers opportunities for everyone to get out on the water, via kayaks, canoes and other forms of transportation, per the Kenmore Boat Launch. You can water ski, fish, swim or just hang out on the water. “The neighborhood has spectacular views; you can see the mountains, the water, hear the seaplanes flying overhead. It’s kind of a hidden gem, people don’t really know about,” says Szorenyi. “I have lived all over Seattle, but I just love it here, I really do.”
