Contemporary architecture on large lots

Wooden fences and greenery divide residential areas from the main roads. Most of the housing was initially built around the 1950s, although construction is becoming more frequent. “When I bought a rental property in this area, I decided to move out here,” says Therese Bianchi, a Seattle native and real estate broker with Windermere West Metro. “There are large parcels of land, and it’s close to Seattle, but it feels more rural with land that has development potential.” Contemporary architecture plus single-level and elevated ranch-style homes are common. Prices range from $300,000 to $800,000. Condos cost around $200,000 to $400,000.

Single-family homes like these can be found dotting the residential streets of Boulevard Park.
