Quiet town from 90s TV show Twin Peaks
Whether buyers are drawn to the scenic waterfall and mountains that appeared in David Lynch's Twin Peaks, its charming downtown or its wealth of outdoor activities, Snoqualmie is a prime location for those seeking the quiet eastern reaches of King County. Located just 25 miles from Seattle on Lake Sammamish's Eastside, this mountain town of over 14,000 residents offers a calm place to live while remaining within commuting distance. Investment in the city and leaning into the popularity of Twin Peaks and Snoqualmie Falls has spurred growth over the past 30 years. In addition to its attractions and amenities, Snoqualmie offers a highly regarded school system and low noise and environmental risks.
The Snoqualmie neighborhood is surrounded by beautiful mountains and hills.

Hiking Mount Si Trail and skiing Snoqualmie Pass
The city is just minutes from Mount Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest, which spans 140 miles of the western band of the Cascade Mountain Range. It includes mossy forests, snow-capped mountain peaks, summer wildflower meadows and miles of blackberry and salmonberry-lined trails. Hiking enthusiasts will enjoy being just 7 miles from the Mount Si Trailhead, a favorite hike among residents. Skiing and snowboarding are popular winter activities. “It’s at the foothills of the Cascade Mountains, so it’s about 25 minutes to the ski slopes at Snoqualmie Pass and an hour to Skykomish,” says Realtor and Snoqualmie resident Stacey Chellis with Coldwell Banker Bain. The Snoqualmie River and its famous falls are right in the heart of the city. There are public access points along the water, like Riverview Park, which has a playground and athletic area. Another favorite is Sandy Cove Park, perfect for spending a morning fishing or cooling off in the July heat.

Master-planned communities and properties with acreage
Snoqualmie has properties of all shapes and sizes. Homes on the outskirts with mountain views and acreage are near the areas of Ernie's Grove and Ellisville. Downtown Snoqualmie has Chalet, Pacific Northwest contemporaries and Dutch Colonials. “You also have the more historic part of Snoqualmie, more in the valley. They start around 450 or 550 and go up to the $2,000,000 range, depending on where they are,” Chellis says. However, the most popular area is Snoqualmie Ridge, which is a master-planned community with townhouses and craftsmen two stories. “It’s up on the hill, built around a golf course. Homes started getting built around 1998, and a single-family home starts at about $900,000 and goes up to $2.8 million,” says Chellis, who’s also a Snoqualmie Ridge resident. The median home price is $1.2 million.

Historic downtown with railroad architecture
Historic Downtown Snoqualmie resembles its days as a railroad town. This walkable section along Railroad Avenue begins with the Northwest Railway Museum. This is the state's largest and most comprehensive railroad museum, offering an immersive experience of the working heritage railway. For the remainder of the downtown, storefronts and restaurants mimic the museum’s look with brick and antique store signage. Visitors can find coffee shops, Mexican restaurants, American restaurants and breweries here. Shopping options include antique shops and trading stores. Another shopping and dining area is in the Snoqualmie Ridge neighborhood off Center Boulevard. The upscale and modern area matches the neighborhood’s newer vibe. Restaurants include Irish and American cuisine, breweries and fast-casual spots, and services include banks, doctor’s offices and nail salons. North Bend has an outlet mall with over 30 stores.
