Lake Washington Waterfront - Homes and Real Estate

The Greater Seattle area's major waterfront real estate is on Lake Washington. Lake-front homes on Lake Washington stretch along many cities around the shoreline. Seattle is on the Western shore of the lake, Kenmore, and Lake Forest Park are on the North End. Mercer Island is in the center of the South end of the lake, with Renton on the shore. To the East are Bellevue and Kirkland.

Many of Seattle's largest and most expensive waterfront homes are on Lake Washington. Bill Gates, Paul Allen, Kurt Cobain, and many other famous Seattle names have owned homes on or near the shores of Lake Washington, and many still do. The lake has the best recreational boating areas, with fresh water, wide waterways, and none of the watercraft speed limitations of Lake Union and Portage Bay.

Lake Washington also has an avid fishing population, with anglers dropping in at the many public park launches or casting off from the hundreds of private docks along the water. From Seafair to 4th of July fireworks, Lake Washington is the spot for open boating and entertainment in Seattle.
