In the Northern part of Seattle, you can find homes in the amazing neighborhood of Green Lake! Green Lake official neighborhood boundaries are pretty much on the North and West side of the lake itself (between I-5 and 99 and 85th and 50th), but I consider all the homes that surround Greenlake to be in the neighborhood of Green Lake or to at least have that same feeling. The fact of the matter is if you are within a few blocks or more from the lake then you are in Green Lake real estate zone or close enough. Our Seattle neighborhood boundaries are "flexible".
So why does everyone want to live by this lake?
The actual Greenlake park is pretty wonderful with large open spaces and a loop that surrounds the lake itself. It is roughly three miles long and quite an asset to have close by! This is why other close by neighborhoods can seem to mash into Green lake a bit.
Besides the lake itself, there are shops and restaurants galore all near the heart of this great neighborhood and it is also easy to commute from here in all directions. Green Lake is a great choice for University of Washington commuting, too!
Homes in this North Seattle area of Green Lake include some wonderful choices and interesting real estate! Green Lake townhomes, condos, bungalows, and newer Built Green options are all here! You can find homes anywhere between 1900 and new construction in Green Lake, but many tend to be 1920 ans 1930 built homes. Some are in original condition and falling apart, but luckily most of the homes in this area have been lovingly restored! Townhouse developments here are thoughtful and there are a lot of green real estate options as well. Just wanting to get into a condo? There are some great Seattle condos in Green Lake!
Other Seattle neighborhoods with homes close to this Green Lake?
Parts of Wallingford, Greenwood, Licton Springs, and Phinney Ridge are all very close to Green Lake and offer some great Seattle real estate. Maple Leaf and Ravenna are both right over the freeway from Greenlake. If you are on the edge of any of these close together North Seattle neighborhoods, then you can also enjoy Green Lake without much effort!

About Me:
Seattle real estate has been a big part of my life for well over a decade since I began my career in real estate,but also before that time when I was in the process of purchasing my own first home. Buying your first home can be quite overwhelming,but I have managed to help many first time home buyers along the way.
Move up Seattle buyers and other types of specialized purchasing is a great passion of mine! I love Seattle houseboats and you can find me down on the docks of Lake Union and Portage Bay several times a week. Other aspects of Seattle real estate that I adore include Queen Anne Real Estate,Wallingford Real Estate, Ballard Real Estate, Green Lake Real Estate, Laurelhurst Real Estate, Magnolia Real Estate,andSeattle Waterfront Real Estate.
In addition to being a Seattle residential broker and founder of Cooper Jacobs & Seattle Afloat, I am also a member of CBA (Commercial Brokers Association) and head of the Cooper Jacobs Commercial Division in an effort to provide excellent commercial real estate services to the Seattle commercial real estate industry. With a background in accounting and management, it is my great pleasure to coordinate our Seattle commercial brokers.
