Setting & Location


With its incomparable views, the West slope of Magnolia has long been one of Seattle’s most coveted residential enclaves. The unique topography of Raye Street and Perkins Lane allow for some of the most extraordinary scenery in Western Washington, while also affording close proximity to the natural wonders and recreational opportunities to be found throughout Magnolia’s numerous parks and greenways.

Situated on a peninsula, Magnolia has always offered a hospitable sense of privacy and tranquility that’s slightly off the beaten path, yet within the bounds of metropolitan Seattle, lending it the feeling of an autonomous community. Verdant hills, elegant landscaping and gracefully meandering streets help to create a sunny, curated and very lush year-round atmosphere. Magnolia Village, its central business district, has a charming sensibility that invites neighbors to co-mingle while carrying out their daily duties.

Magnolia offers convenient access to Seattle’s waterfront and downtown business districts, as well as easy connection to Ballard and Queen Ann Hill, to take advantage of the many cultural, dining, and commercial opportunities that the city has to offer. In addition, the neighborhood sits directly above three of Seattle’s busiest yachting and commercial harbors and is within an easy drive to Shilshole Bay and Golden Gardens Park.
