Just after Interstate 90 leave’s Seattle’s Beacon Hill for its cross-country ride to Beacon Hill, Boston, it passes across and under Mercer Island, one of the wealthiest enclaves in all of Seattle’s metropolitan area.
Though fully incorporated as a city with 22,000 residents, for most locals Mercer Island represents quiet residential neighborhoods situated on real estate priced for the extremely upscale. Case in point, Microsoft’s co-founder Paul Allen makes his home here.
Known for its great school system and pricey homes, no one ever equates Mercer Island with an urban core, nightlife, or even condos.
That’s changing due to significant municipal investment, construction facelifts, and five-story condominium builds in the center of town. As many as 700 new condos should be on the market by late 2008. And now, it’s an extremely hot market for condo buyers.
As a place to live, few locales around Seattle can boast having equal commuting distance to the software companies on the eastside and to Seattle’s business core. Vast freeway lids, some converted into city parks, cover much of the interstate as it snakes through Mercer Island, built to shelter the well heeled residents from the freeway’s noise pollution and automobile exhaust.
Lake Washington provides 360-degree waterfront property around the island, so yachts and sea plane docks are not unusual, especially in the island’s average property – which at last check, goes for an amount just shy of a cool million.
Having the right combination of income, lifestyle, and timing counts for a lot, but for a real advantage stick with the advice you can get from CondoCompany, the internet’s best and most reliable condo portal to date. |
