Woodsy neighborhood with conveinent location

Initially designed for horse riders and hikers, the Wingate neighborhood evolved into a beloved residential area for its privacy and friendly community. The smaller neighborhood still holds the natural feel from the 1970s, offering homes with forest-like backyards. “You have a lot of great homes with very spacious and sizable yards,” says Brian Alfi, Managing Broker at Windermere Shoreline. “They have a lot of walking trails through the HOA.” Additionally, its location is convenient, only a few miles from the Puget Sound shores, downtown Edmonds, Mukilteo and nearby transportation. “It’s a little further away from the freeway, but it’s not that far away,” Alfi says.

Wingate is a stone's throw from Washington State's Puget Sound.

Various trails and beach access

Time outdoors may be spent at Picnic Point Park, a few miles west. The park is an attractive spot for its views and beach access. Situated along the Puget Sound shores, many people like to take breezy walks along the trail or take their pups for a run on the sands. “The beach has old pilling that makes for great photography, lots of wildlife views," says Rose Intveld, Communication Specialist for Schomisch County Parks and Recreation. "Kids enjoy having picnics and enjoying the beach.” Others may sit on the sand to watch the sunset and view Whidbey Island and Olympic Mountain. Meadowdale Beach Park just south provides similar amenities plus some. "You can actually do the Washington Water trail and you can kayak up and camp on the beach," Intveld says. Hikers can go for a 1.25-mile stroll within its nature trail that weaves through several old trees. Golfers can tee up to 18 holes with a Harbour Pointe Golf Course membership.

Neighborhood favorites with variety of cuisines

Many dining options are outside the neighborhood but there is plethora of hometown favorites. Bobby’s Hawaiian Style drew national attention through its feature on Food Network’s Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives. However, natives love the spot for its homey café and authentic Hawaiian dishes like Kalua Pork. Grounds Coffee is a tiny stand with an extensive menu ranging from simple black coffee to flavored energy drinks. Across the street, A Burger Place keeps things old school with the classic combo of burgers, fries and onion rings. Bits is the neighborhood evening favorite, serving cocktails and beer alongside an upscale menu and live performances. Weekly groceries can be bought at Safeway.
