A beautiful neighborhood offering sweeping views of the Puget Sound, Blue Ridge is one of those quintessential Seattle neighborhoods that allow you to turn down a street as it opens to sweeping waterfront views. Homes are built across a hill, affording many of them, including Mid-Century Modern, Northwest Contemporary, and Traditional homes, water views that bring in bright blues on summer days and soft gray during that typical Seattle mist.
Blue Ridge is bordered by Puget Sound to the west, Carkeek Park to the north, and by Crown Hill and Greenwood to the east.
Alongside the stunning water views, proximity to Carkeek Park is ideal for those wanting to take advantage of the outdoors in Seattle’s urban borders. Trails offer small hikes, while a playground is perfect for little ones on sunny and rainy days alike. A footpath bridge takes visitors over the railroad tracks and down to the public beach, where on low tide, the many wonders of the Northwest’s seas are on display, and passing ships travel to and from the Ports of Seattle and Tacoma.
