Mount Baker
The coveted Mount Baker neighborhood, featuring a gorgeous mountain view over Lake Washington, is the PNW lifestyle epitomized. This residential community is very popular with young families and feels pleasantly suburban compared to other districts so close to downtown. If you seek the opportunity to get outdoors, this neighborhood is for you. Run the trails at Colman Park, bike along Lake Washington Boulevard, or take a relaxing dip or kayak trip at Mount Baker Beach. Upscale, yet family friendly, homes here range from expensive waterfront mansions to modest family homes.
Mount Baker is not only known for its views and greenspaces, but its charismatic entertainment options as well. Although this neighborhood boasts a quiet, more residential atmosphere, there are some must-visit gems awaiting you. After a day on the lake, enjoy a bite at beloved Mioposto or grab your favorite drink at the popular Velvet Elk. Other amazing options include Iconiq and Heyday Bar & Restaurant. There is so much to do just outside your door. Considered one of the best neighborhoods in Seattle, the majestic tree-lined waterfront complete with views is highly sought-after for good reason.
