Lakeridge

As the name suggests, Lakeridge is a view neighborhood on the southern end of Lake Washington. Most of the neighborhood is in the Skyway area, an unincorporated community between Renton and Seattle. Other plots in Lakeridge are part of Rainier View, which is Seattle proper. Hence, in terms of taxes and infrastructure, there are big differences within the neighborhood. What is consistent is its mid-century modern charm. Most of the homes were built in the 1940s and ‘50s. Some have been maintained pristinely, while others need some love. As a mostly residential neighborhood, Lakeridge has become popular among those who are seeking a home that is near town but still offers quiet and room to breathe. And again, the views really are something else!
