Why Should You Think About Moving To Seattle’s Magnolia Neighborhood?

This is why: Magnolia Blvd..  Walking The Bluff in Seattle’s Magnolia Neighborhood:

Magnolia Blvd Homes

Usually we like to walk Discovery Park’s Loop Trail or The North Beach Trail, but I wanted to be an urban hiker today in Magnolia.  Despite the 40 degree temperatures, after a short trip to REI for warmth reinforcements, we headed off from 34th Ave W straight up the A Hill side of Dravus.  I was suddenly reminded of the 4th of July when I hiked up a million stairs from Lake Union to East Queen Anne.  Once you go up the hill a few blocks you end up at the bottom of this wonderful multi-tiered staircase which rivals the steps at Golden Gardens.   It is an excellent start to walk and really gets your blood pumping.  It is also the hardest part and I love knowing that the hard part is over!

At the top of the staircase, when you finally get there, take a second and turn around because this is one of the MANY money shots from Magnolia.  Huffing and puffing and catching my breath, I was taken with the lovely view of the Space Needle and Downtown Seattle which seem like another world away when you are in Magnolia.   Further West as we kept going, we came across the wonderful Magnolia new construction development of Briarcliff.  If you are looking for new construction homes in Magnolia, then these large new Magnolia view homes might fit the bill.  There are some interesting floor plans and I would love to show you my favorite.  Briarcliff is nestled at the top of the hill with views of both Downtown Seattle and the Puget Sound and Olympic Mountains.

Keep walking back down the hill a bit going West and you will come to Magnolia Boulevard after passing many beautiful Magnolia view homes all in a large variety of styles, but every one of them beautiful and coveted by their owners.  There is a long list of Magnolia buyers who want to live here so if you are thinking about selling your Magnolia home, feel free to get in touch with me so I can give you some good tips on home selling tips and also current information on the Seattle Magnolia real estate market.

Take a left on the Boulevard and walk along the beautifully landscaped sidewalks with loads of charm and endless views all around you.  We walked for about a mile before cutting back over the hill to head back into The Village.  Magnolia Village homes have a great benefit of being right in the retail heart of this wonderful neighborhood.  Magnolia is truly a neighborhood that feels like an island and separate from the rest of Seattle.  Most people feel like they are in their own world there and The Magnolia Village is one of the key reasons why.

If you want to see some of my favorite Magnolia homes for sale, I would love to show them to you.  This neighborhood has it all and I highly recommend that you check Magnolia in Seattle out if  you are wondering which Seattle neighborhood is the best.

This is one of them.
