About the Building
Shorehouse at 6225 Lake Washington Blvd NE is a 1969 low-rise waterfront community of 32 homes in Houghton, set along the Lake Washington Boulevard shoreline south of downtown Kirkland.
Common amenities include a dock with day moorage, an outdoor pool, elevator and lobby, high-speed internet, and covered parking is reported. The scale is deliberately low-rise, which keeps the shoreline setting rather than a tower profile as the defining quality.
Waterfront & Moorage
- The community sits directly on the Lake Washington shoreline along Lake Washington Boulevard.
- The dock provides day moorage as common property. It is not a guaranteed deeded slip for any individual residence.
Shoreline, dock and moorage rights are established by the governing documents and vary by residence. They should be confirmed before purchase.

No Rental Cap ≠ Short-Term Rental
