description

The Eastside private waterfront market saw a significant 55% increase in the number of units transacted—from 38 sales in 2013 to 59 in 2014. This was likely driven, in part, to buyers finding more desirable homes here than in areas seeing a lack of availability in the number of homes for sale in other areas such as Lake Sammamish. The desire to be closer to core metro areas and shorter commute times also played a large factor. The average sale price was up 38%, but much of that increase is the result of more sales at the higher end of the market. The cost per waterfront acre and cost per front foot increased a more stable 4% and 3%, respectively. The cost per home square foot increased 27%. All in all, a very nice year for Eastside waterfront.

Active Listings to Pending Sales Active

Pending

The number of active listings currently offered for sale is represented by the bars, while the number of pending sales is graphed on the line.

This chart shows the number of months it would take to sell all active listings based on the rate of pending sales, assuming no new listings came to market.

The average cost per acre, as solid pricing benchmark, is determined by dividing the average sale price by the lot size of the property in acres.

The average sales price represents the total of all the sales prices, divided by the number of homes sold each quarter.

The Eastside’s private waterfront consists of homes sited along Lake Washington from just north of St. Edwards

State Park to Newcastle Beach Park; encompassing the cities of Kenmore, Kirkland, Bellevue, Medina, Newcastle

and Renton.

The water’s edge along the east side of Lake Washington includes many desirable points, bays and vistas—

especially those centrally located in the Yarrow Point, Hunts Point and Media neighborhoods.

Unlike those homes situated on the west side of the lake, the east side enjoys exceptional sunsets from their

vantage point along the eastern shore line. Many homes feature low or no-bank waterfront providing level beach

access and spacious docks.
