Olympus Beach Wft BAINBRIDGE ISLAND IS A RELAXING FERRY

ride across Puget Sound from Seattle’s downtown business and financial center.

Winslow is the island’s commercial center, offering a small town atmosphere and a full complement of retail and business establishments to service island residents.

Bainbridge Island has evolved from a community with booming shipbuilding, timber and international shipping industries, waterfront summer cottages and berry farms to a rural community of year-round residents who treasure the beauty of Bainbridge Island.

Most working Islanders commute by ferry to Seattle. Bicyclists and joggers love the island’s quiet, delightful picnic areas.

And the schools are among the best in the state!

Windermere’s Bainbridge Island office was established in 1978. Our associates have years of experience in handling residential real estate negotiations.

They’re committed to making lasting contributions to the community by being involved in a wide range of service activities. WRE/Bainbridge Island.

Bainbridge Island THE WEST SIDE OF PUGET SOUND IS A

short ferry ride away from downtown Seattle. The beautiful Kitsap County area includes Bremerton, Silverdale, Poulsbo, Bainbridge Island, Kingston, Seabeck, and Port Orchard.

This area manages to combine established cities and neighborhoods with wonderful open scenic areas. It is surrounded by water, and is the gateway to the Olympic Peninsula recreational areas. There are many waterfront and view properties, and the average sale price of homes is significantly lower than that of our neighbors across the Sound. Most of our communities are centered around the waterfront with marinas, shopping, galleries, restaurants and more.

Visit our area by taking a ferry from Edmonds or Seattle, or drive from Tacoma on Highway 16 across the Narrows Bridge.

The ferry trip is either a half an hour or an hour depending upon departure point, and the drive is about the same. You’ll be pleasantly surprised at the beauty and quality of life in Kitsap County.

PORT TOWNSEND: VICTORIAN SEAPORT.

Port Townsend is a National Historic District whose scores of homes and larger downtown buildings dating from the late 1800s have been preserved and renovated, ensuring that it remains a truly extraordinary location.

Bordered by Discovery Bay, the Strait of Juan de Fuca and Port Townsend Bay, with the Olympic Mountains as a backdrop, the “City of Dreams” is located in the rain shadow of the Olympic Peninsula— average annual rainfall is just 17 inches.

Life here is connected to the land and the sea. Many of today’s industries are still based in maritime trades, while the eclectic community of artists, writers, musicians, craftsmen, organic farmers, and residents new and old is as varied as the geography.

A haven for outdoor enthusiasts and devotees of the arts, Port Townsend offers year-round festivals, symposiums, performances, and fabulous restaurants.

We invite you to stop by or call us for more information on this extraordinary Port Townsend lifestyle.

WHIDBEY ISLAND HAS BECOME A POPULAR

destination for people looking for a summer retreat, those planning retirement or anyone who wants to escape the fast pace of the cities. Surrounded by Puget Sound waters and the dramatic views of both the Cascades and the Olympics, it is the longest island in the contiguous U.S. From spectacular Deception Pass and the Naval Air Station on the north through rolling farms, tall forests and charming vistas to the convenience of commuting to Everett and Seattle, the varied cultures and terrain make this area most appealing.

Miles of beaches, marinas, golf courses, equestrian opportunities and an active cultural community offer the widest scope of activities and interests. Couple this with the low rainfall of the “Puget Sound Banana Belt” and you have one of the best lifestyles in the Pacific Northwest.

Office locations spanning the entire island give us expansive market knowledge.

If you’re looking for your dream home, investment or rental property, we’ll provide top quality, professional attention. WRE/ South Whidbey. WRE/Whidbey Island. windermerewhidbey.com
