Bordering the tranquil banks of the Snohomish River, Cathcart is a primarily rural, residential community halfway between Historic Downtown Snohomish and Woodinville. “Two of the biggest draws to that area are the excellent school district and the space,” says Kyle Wells, a Realtor with Windermere Realty who specializes in Snohomish County. “You get a little bit of country while still being close to the cities.”
There are plenty of opportunities to spread out in Cathcart, with most houses sitting on at least a half-acre of land. These expansive lots, shielded by tall evergreens, provide homeowners with a sense of peace and privacy. Typical area homes include ranches, split-levels and larger Modern Traditional homes built in the ‘90s and early 2000s. Home prices start out at $500,000 for 1,000 sg. ft. floor plans and fixer-upper properties. Most homes sit within the $700,000 to $1 million range. Contemporary custom homes on several acres get above $1 million. These homes sit back on private roads and offer mountain views and luxury amenities like pools and saunas.
Students are part of the Snohomish School District. Kids are zoned to start at Cathcart Elementary, which receives a B-plus rating on Niche. Then it’s on to Valley View Middle School and Glacier Peak High School, which both receive an A-minus rating and rank among the top ten schools in Snohomish County. The high school offers advanced placement classes and has a Career & Technical Education Program that prepares students for careers in fields like agriculture, business and health sciences. For the youngest learners, the preschool Clearview Montessori is a private option near many homes in the area.
Nestled at the base of the Cascade Mountain Range, the community enjoys ample nature access. At the neighborhood’s edge, Bob Heirman Wildlife Park is a preserve where you can walk, bike and fish on the Snohomish River. And just across the river lies Lord Hill Park, a 1,400-acre nature conservation area traversed by hiking, mountain biking and horseback riding trails.
In between feed stores and landscaping suppliers, small eateries sit just off Woodinville Snohomish Road. Taqueria El Pollo Loco is known for authentic Mexican food, and Larry’s Smokehouse specializes in brisket and smoked salmon. And Cathcart’s shopping center, Clearview Plaza, is also home to familiar retailers Safeway and Starbucks. Part of greater Western Washington’s wine hub, Cathcart is just 8 miles away from Woodinville, known for its tasting rooms and scenic wineries. Woodinville also has big-name retailers like Target, Costco, and AMC Theaters.
“People move out to Cathcart to be away from the city,” Wells explains. “There’s not really a ton of there in terms of big entertainment.” However, local parks and nearby towns do offer smaller community-focused events. Willis D. Tucker Community Park is just northwest of Cathcart and is popular in the summer for the splash pad, farmers market and outdoor movies. Locals let their dogs play off-leash in the dog park, and kids enjoy the sand pit and playground. For good country fun, the Evergreen Fairgrounds, 10 miles away, hosts a State Fair in August, as well as horse shows and races on the Evergreen Speedway. And the small towns of Historic Downtown Snohomish and Woodinville offer local festivals and holiday celebrations.
The regional Paine Field Airport is 10 miles away, and Everett is 13 miles away. Everett is home to a large shopping mall and a variety of eateries and nightlife opportunities. Those headed into Bellevue, 20 miles away, hop on Interstate 405 to drive 20 or 30 minutes into the city. Anyone commuting to Seattle is typically looking at a 45-minute drive and will tend to hit traffic on the way during rush hour.
