🛥️ Ian’s Best Tips for Boating in Seattle & The Eastside - Part 2 - Dream House Shopping
One of my favorite things to do out on the boat is to dream house shop. You know I’m always out there looking at homes—I just can’t help myself. What can I say? Sometimes I like being a bit of a lookie-loo! 😂
🗺️ There are so many incredible properties in Seattle and in surrounding cities that you can really only see from the water. If you want to go on your own house shopping adventure, here are a few of my fave spots to check out:
🏡 Take a look at the floating homes and houseboats on Lake Union, Portage Bay, and in the surrounding areas
🏡 Admire gorgeous Seattle waterfront homes in Seward Park, Mount Baker, Leschi, Denny Blaine, Madrona, Laurelhurst, Windermere… and the list goes on
🏡 There’s plenty of prime real estate to see on the Eastside, too—Bellevue, Medina, and Kirkland all have stunning residences
🏡 You can also boat the full circumference of Mercer Island to ogle spectacular waterfront properties.
🏡 Juanita Bay is another lovely quiet spot to visit, and it’s also where you’ll find my Kirkland listing at 8503 NE Juanita Drive. This waterfront home has a private dock on Lake Washington, and views of the water, Mt. Rainier, and the Bellevue skyline.
