Outdoorsy community in the North Seattle suburbs
Maltby is a secluded exurb in south Snohomish County that offers spacious homes surrounded by nature, including multiple hiking areas and the Snohomish River. “It’s a little bit of country that’s close to everything,” says Eva Bryce, a Real Estate Marketing Specialist with Century 21. The semi-rural community is mostly made up of residential properties, farmland and a few small businesses. While it doesn’t have much in the way of retail, it’s just a short drive from Maltby to Monroe and Woodinville, which both have vibrant downtown areas.
