Peaceful Condo Living in Richmond Beach, WA

Have you ever dreamed of living somewhere that feels like a quiet retreat, but is still close to everything you need? Well, let me take you through the Richmond Beach neighborhood of Shoreline, Washington, just north of Seattle and a world away from the noise and stress of city life. I'm realtor Emily Cressy, and today I want to share with you a place that's perfect for someone who's ready for a simpler lifestyle. So let's start with the neighborhood. Richmond Beach is a highly desirable suburb in the 98177 zip code, which is a north Seattle area right on the coast on Puget Sound. We've got the fresh air of the ocean coming up. We've got the hills. We've got the trees. And you can enjoy a relaxed, peaceful suburban life right here. Richmond Beach is one of those places in Puget Sound where time just seems to slow down and you can breathe. Go run the stairs, go out to the beach, hear the waves. Your dog can go off leash at the dog park in the winter, and naturalists will come at low tide in the summer and help you identify the different sea life from crabs to octopi to anemones and mussels. It's a great place to do stargazing, as well as you can go down to the beach and sink your feet in the sand. So you'll get there. There's a quiet tree lined street, 185th. There are friendly neighbors here, and the beach really is just a short walk or drive away. And now picture coming home to this. You're here in this garden level condo tucked into a peaceful, well-maintained community. You can come in the front door or come in through this private patio entrance and step into your sunny living room and let out that sigh of relief that only comes when you truly feel like you're at home. This is a one bedroom unit, and it lives large thanks to the open layout and big windows that bring in tons of natural light. The kitchen is updated with bamboo style floors, sleek cabinets and a cute little breakfast bar that is just perfect for your morning coffee or chatting with a friend while you prep dinner. There's even room for a small herb garden on the patio if you'd like to cook something fresh. The bathroom has been renovated, too, with granite tile, a new vanity, modern fixtures and smart storage. You also get two storage lockers, one on the patio and another inside the laundry building. So you don't have to downsize everything, even if you're coming here to a smaller place. And if you're a plant lover or a pet owner, you'll appreciate this ground level unit gives you easy access to the outdoors. No stairs, no elevator. Just step outside and breathe in that Pacific Northwest air. And just around the corner right there, that's the pool. It's shielded by plants and lush greenery, and it feels like a retreat. It's great for sitting outside, even in the sun or taking a dip to cool off or get some exercise. So we are lifestyle ready here. And whether you're working remotely, retired or just ready to own something that feels like it's yours. This is a low maintenance, high comfort space that lets you enjoy what matters most. And the best part, everything you need is close by. Grocery stores, restaurants, coffee shops, parks. It's all within walking distance. And you'll always feel like you are kind of private back here. It's very quiet all times of day or night. I have not heard any noise from the neighbors or any people, really. It's just very secluded and peaceful.
