Bedroom community near I-90 and downtown North Bend

Riverbend is a quiet, wooded neighborhood just south of Interstate 90 on the outskirts of North Bend. Residents here are surrounded by plenty of nature and close to everyday necessities. “Riverbend is a choice neighborhood for people becoming familiar with the North Bend lifestyle,” says Brian Davis, owner/broker at Snoqualmie Valley Real Estate. “They love the Riverbend area for its proximity to town, charming homes and flexible floor plans.” The South Fork Snoqualmie River snakes through the neighborhood; plenty of parks, riverside trails and recreation areas are in and around Riverbend.

Close by to three North Bend trails

With the river, neighborhood parks and nearby recreation areas, Riverbend residents can maintain an active lifestyle. The South Fork Snoqualmie River has spots for swimming and rafting, and the neighborhood also has a small lake with picnic areas and green space. Kelly Park is the area’s neighborhood park, home to a playground and a community garden. The South Fork Landing Park is west of the neighborhood; it’s a former golfing area converted into an 18-hole disc golf course. Hikers and bikers up for a challenge can take the Snoqualmie Valley Trail, which spans 31 miles. Other popular trails include the Mount Si Trail and the Snake Ledge Trail, both used for hiking and biking.

Across the street from the popular South Fork

Riverbend residents will likely head towards North Bend’s downtown for dining. However, Riverbend is across from South Fork, a popular New American restaurant with a large outdoor space for relaxing on summer nights. “South Fork is about a minute and a half away for these guys; it’s the place to be,” Davis says. The establishment also does live music every Thursday and monthly trivia. Downtown is about 3 miles away; restaurants there include Huxdotter Coffee, a local chain serving breakfast and lunch. Iron Duck Public House has 20 rotating taps and more than 300 whiskeys. QFC and Safeway are grocery store options 4 miles from the neighborhood; residents can also shop at the North Bend Premium Outlets, which has 33 stores and restaurants, including Nike, Coach and GAP.

At Iron Duck Public House, Riverbend residents can enjoy one of the over 20 beers on tap.

Ramblers and bi-levels surrounded by nature

Riverbend has a woodsy backdrop, with tall trees shading most of the streets and houses. Sidewalks are non-existent, and streets connect to gravel or grass patches. Houses, mostly ramblers, split-level homes and bi-levels built between 1970 and the 1990s, typically sit on small lots of less than an acre, separated by fencing or patches of trees and bushes. One-car garages, driveways, front yards and side sheds are typical. Prices can range from $500,000 to $900,000, but custom properties can cost over $1 million. The neighborhood also has a CAP Index crime score of 1 out of 10, the lowest possible ranking.

South of Interstate 90

Residents will need a car to get around. “People who live here work everywhere. They’re going to Seattle, Bellevue and Redmond; they’re all over,” Davis says. “Living in North Bend gives you the best access to major employers.” Interstate 90 is just north of the neighborhood and takes drivers 35 miles to Seattle. The Snoqualmie Valley Transit provides shuttle buses through North Bend for $1, and the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport is 36 miles away. Travelers have nonstop flight options to 94 domestic and 33 international destinations.
