Rolling rolls that open to Lake Sammamish

Northeast Bellevue is a peaceful suburb offering fantastic schools, proximity to amenities and luxury homes overlooking the scenic Lake Sammamish. "The community is family-friendly and slower-paced than Downtown while offering a lower price point than other Bellevue neighborhoods," says Realtor Tova Williamson with eXp Realty. Homebuyers can buy the lake house of their dreams while retaining some financial flexibility. Given the high precipitation of the area, colorful vegetation and a variety of trees native to the Pacific Northwest line the streets of this young and active alcove.

A wide array of homes under tall tree canopies

Homes in the area are a mix of established houses of the 1960s and new builds tucked behind towering trees on lush lots. Roads meander throughout the community's rolling hills, offering scenic views of Lake Sammamish and the Cascades from its peaks. Bilevels, spacious midcentury homes and contemporary new builds line the streets and colorful cul-de-sacs in town. Homes range, on average, from $1 million to $2 million, with the median at $1.5 million. There are also a few outlying properties along the shores of the lake that can reach up to $5 million.

Best school district in Washington State

Students enrolled in public school will attend the Bellevue School District, rated by Niche as the number one district in Washington State. "Schools here are one of the biggest draws for homebuyers," Williamson says. Bennett Elementary is where students can begin their education. Rated an A by Niche.com, the school has very high proficiency in reading and math. Students can continue learning at Highland Middle School, just west of the neighborhood and rated a B. The school offers various student athletics, such as tennis and rugby. Receiving the highest score possible of an A-plus is Interlake High. It utilizes a cohort academic program focusing on advanced learning classes using the International Baccalaureate model.

Birdwatching, beach volleyball and basketball

Bellevue is an active, outdoorsy city, and residents can be found using the local parks all year round. Ardmore Park is a lush, 30-acre green space popular for trail hiking and birdwatching. One can even glimpse the occasional Bald Eagle along the forested paths. Another regular spot on the weekends is Ivanhoe Park and Sports Fields. Divided by Northup Way, the park offers a basketball court, soccer fields, a baseball diamond and a small playground under tall fir and spruce trees. Locals looking for a beach day can head to Idylwood Park for a sandy bluff, beach volleyball courts and a kayak launch into Lake Sammamish.

A short commute to larger cities

With onramps just outside the neighborhood, many residents use this freeway for commuting to and from work. Northeast Bellevue has well-maintained and ample sidewalks, making it walkable for leisure. However, the neighborhood is car-dependent for most necessities like shopping and commuting.
