Veradale blends Spokane Valley’s convenience with natural beauty

Historically a separate community, Veradale is a pocket of residential streets and shopping centers within the city of Spokane Valley. Its many neighborhoods were built largely from the mid-1900s through today, attracting people looking to settle down in historic houses and luxury new construction with views of forested hills and distant mountains. From the suburban streets of Veradale, it’s just as easy to get out into the greater Spokane Valley’s recreation areas as it is to shop at the Spokane Valley Mall, drive the kids to highly rated Central Valley schools, pick up groceries on Sprague Avenue or start down Interstate 90 toward Downtown Spokane.

Historic homes and contemporary neighborhoods with mountain views

A mix of suburban communities makes up Veradale, developed from the mid-1900s through the 2020s. In older neighborhoods, buyers can find blocks of bungalows, bi-levels and ranch-style homes from around the midcentury. Along cul-de-sacs from the 1990s or later, you’ll see larger New Traditional homes in a range of modern styles. Much of Veradale is shaded by mature trees, and properties often offer views of distant mountains. “It’s not as quiet as rural neighborhoods near the Spokane River, but it’s quiet enough to walk around and listen to the birds,” says Dana Pendergrass, a broker with Designed Real Estate who has been a real estate professional since the early 2000s.

Prices range widely in Veradale. Smaller homes built around the midcentury might sell in the lower $300,000s, while expansive custom homes built in gated communities since the 2000s can go for well over $1 million. Veradale has a median single-family home price in the mid-$600,000s. That’s higher than both Spokane Valley and Spokane.

Close to highly rated Central Valley schools

The Central Valley School District serves Veradale. There are several CVSD schools within the community, including the highly rated Central Valley High School. While attending Central Valley High, students can earn an Associate of Arts degree through direct transfer agreements with local institutions like Eastern Washington University.

Shopping along Sprague Avenue and at the Spokane Valley Mall

Quiet, suburban neighborhood streets are down the road from major Spokane Valley shopping hubs in Veradale. “It connects to Sprague Avenue and other commercial areas, so you get some through traffic,” Pendergrass says. Locals shop at grocery and big-box stores like Walmart and Fred Meyer in busy commercial plazas throughout Veradale. Largely lining Sullivan Road and Sprague Avenue, these strip mall shopping districts are also home to plenty of local restaurants and national chains. Spokane Valley Mall is just north of I-90. With its dozens of retailers, food court and movie theater, this classic indoor shopping mall is one of the most popular in the greater Spokane area.

Spokane Valley parks and nearby rural recreation

Spokane Valley maintains nearly 400 acres of parks and green spaces, including some spots within Veradale. Other recreation destinations and scenic conservation areas are within 10 minutes of the community. Locals love:

  • Terrace View Park, a classic community park with a popular playground and seasonal pool
  • The Centennial Trail, a walking and biking path connecting parks with Spokane River access, like Mirabeau Point Park
  • Saltese Uplands Conservation Area, a wide-open area where mountain biking trails offer views of Mount Spokane
  • Dishman Hills Natural Area, more than 500 acres of hilly forests full of hiking and dog walking trails

Getting around on I-90 and the Appleway Trail

Interstate 90 runs through the northern part of Veradale, offering access to the commuter hubs of the greater Spokane Valley. Downtown Spokane is a little over 10 miles away, a drive that takes around 20 minutes without traffic. Coeur d'Alene is about 25 minutes in the opposite direction in northern Idaho. Residents typically rely on cars, but you can also catch Spokane Transit Authority buses along several main roads. Although many parts of Veradale aren’t especially pedestrian or bike-friendly, the Appleway Trail, a paved multi-use path that parallels Sprague Avenue, links some neighborhoods and commercial areas.
