Bellevue Real Estate

Bellevue is located in King County, on the east side of Lake Washington. Although demographic data varies, the city's population is somewhere between 107,000 and 120,000, making it one of the largest cities in the county. The median household income of Bellevue households is well above the national average. This is good considering the cost of Bellevue real estate.

Home buyers can expect to pay between $450,000 and $700,000 for the average house, although some properties are available in the $300,000's. A strong condominium and townhouse market provides affordable Bellevue real estate options for those who are priced out of the housing market. The average sales price for a single family home or condo sold for $662,841 in February 2006.

There are many reasons to swallow the high housing prices and make Bellevue your home. Excellent schools, beautiful parks, great beaches, and strong support of the arts are just the beginning.

Bellevue is conveniently located three miles east of Seattle and commuting to Microsoft in nearby Redmond is a breeze. Access to Interstate 405, Interstate 90, and Highway 520 allows residents to get around the King County area via multiple routes.

Bellevue real estate owners can take advantage of the city's yacht clubs. Many fine restaurants and clubs offer numerous choices for entertainment and recreation. And the shopping in Bellevue offers something for everyone.

Bellevue is often referred to as the “City in the Park” because of the park-like landscaping throughout the community. Bellevue has preserved over 1,700 acres of actual park and open space (10 of the city parks are on the water), and has nearly 40 miles of trails for walking, jogging, or biking. Beautiful downtown Bellevue is adorned with formal gardens, a 14-foot waterfall, and a reflecting pool.

Bellevue employs more than 120,000 people. With all that this fair city has to offer, it won't be long before its population catches up!
