Suburban living in northern Kirkland

The community of Kingsgate offers classic suburban living with proximity to the retail center of Totem Lake and strong homeowners’ associations. “It's one of the more affordable neighborhoods in the area, but still has a really good school district and more spacious lot sizes than you will see elsewhere,” says Diane Ginthner, a Realtor with Windemere Realty who has experience in the area. Kingsgate sits on the northern tip of Kirkland, where planned residential streets wind around neighborhood pools. Big cities are a drive away, but the quietness of the area makes it popular with families. "People who grew up in Kingsgate are moving back to raise their own families," says Realtor and former Kingsgate resident Elizabeth Avery of RE/MAX Northwest, "There's a resurgence of life here."

A mix of old and new homes with yards

As a result of high demand, midcentury homes featuring renovated ranch-style or bi-level designs sit alongside new developments. These new builds are often Craftsman-inspired, with stone finishes, porches or geometric designs with large windows and smart home features. Fixer-upper ranch homes start at $800,000, but most homes hover around $1 million or more. Large contemporary homes with five bedrooms get up to $1.8 million. Single-family lots have space for fenced-in backyards, attached garages and space for personal gardens. Multi-family living is also available, offering options for various budgets. Condos start at $300,000, and renovated townhomes go up to $700,000.

Third-best school district in the state

Students are part of the Lake Washington School District, ranked third in the state. Kids start at either Robert Frost Elementary or John Muir Elementary, both featuring an active PTSA that plans family events. Students can take the sidewalks to school, even when they move on to Kamiakin Middle School. All three schools receive an A grade on Niche. Kids head off to Juanita High School, which is 2 miles away. The high school gets an A-minus rating and a 10/10 college readiness score from GreatSchools thanks to its rigorous courses and the international diploma offered through the Cambridge program.

Kingsgate community at pools and parks

Under the broader Evergreen Neighborhood Association, Kingsgate is split up into five distinct homeowners' associations. The HOAs don’t have much of an effect on house restrictions. Instead, they plan community events and maintain a private pool and park. The pools are neighborhood hubs in the summer, bustling with local swim teams and personal pool parties. All residents enjoy the Kingsgate Library and the soccer and baseball fields at 132nd Square Park. The public park also has a modern playground area, picnic tables and public restrooms that invite families to stay a while. Fun on the ice is available all year round at the Sno King Ice Arena, which hosts public skating, figure skating lessons, and competitive ice hockey leagues.

Walkability to Totem Lake

Residents at the neighborhood's southern edge are within walking distance of Totem Lake, and others are a short drive or bus ride away. The recently updated shopping center has a modern-looking Trader Joe's and Whole Foods, as well as restaurants and retail options. To the north, residents can shop at the Safeway in a strip mall along Northeast 144th Street. The nearby Pizza Bank has served the area for over 30 years, and Tony's Sports Bar has karaoke and trivia nights, often with a Seahawks game playing on their TVs.

Adjacent to Washington wine country and trail networks

Kingsgate is close to Woodinville, making it an attractive home-buying location for wine enthusiasts. Just minutes away, Northeast 145th Street is lined with wineries and tasting rooms. The largest winery, Chateau Sainte Michelle, offers tours of its French-style estate and serves up crisp glasses of wine during its outdoor summer concerts. For more fun outdoors, several major trails are nearby, including the Sammamish River Trail, which connects with the Burke-Gilman trail as it stretches around Lake Washington, and the Eastside Rail Corridor, which heads down into downtown Kirkland.

Big city commutes

For commuting workers, the 9-mile drive to Bellevue typically takes 20 minutes. It is doable by bus as well, with neighborhood stops at Totem Lake and along 124th, but the trip is more like an hour. Seattle is 16 miles away across the 520 Bridge, and the drive can often take 40 minutes with traffic. Residents can access the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport via Interstate 405, a direct route that makes the 25-mile drive only take around 25 minutes.

Kingsgate residents enjoy the convenience of Interstate 405.

Nearby medical facilities

The neighborhood is bordered by the EvergreenHealth Medical Center, with facilities from dentists to emergency care. “There are a lot of medical professionals that settle in Kingsgate because of proximity to the hospital,” Ginthner says. “But it’s just far enough away that residents aren’t bothered by emergency vehicle noise.”

EvergreenHealth Medical Center in Kingsgate provides exceptional care to patients.
