Hilly landscapes and access to nature in High Bridge
High Bridge is a rural community west of the Snohomish and Snoqualmie rivers. Tall evergreens line its narrow back roads, which wind around the hilly landscape about 30 miles from downtown Seattle. The area appeals to homeowners who appreciate exploring nature or fishing in freshwater lakes. “It’s so picturesque, yet you’re not that far away from things,” says Sheila Lair, a broker with Keller Williams, who has lived in the area for more than 45 years. “In some places, you have views of the whole valley.”
