The Neighborhood
Arbor Heights
Arbor Heights is a residential neighborhood at the southwestern end of West Seattle, with single-family homes on streets that extend toward the Puget Sound bluff. The neighborhood is quiet and car-dependent, with residents relying on the Junction and Fauntleroy for most services.
The bluff edge provides Sound views from the westernmost streets, and the beach access at Arroyos Natural Area gives residents a rare public coastal access point. The neighborhood's distance from the main commercial corridors of West Seattle is reflected in its pricing.
Points of Interest
- Arroyos Natural Area
- Puget Sound bluff
- Fauntleroy nearby

Single-family homes at accessible West Seattle price points are the primary inventory. The combination of relative distance from transit and commercial activity keeps prices below the Junction and Admiral areas, which can represent an opportunity for buyers with flexible commute situations.
Homes along the bluff edge carry a premium for Sound views. Buyers targeting those lots should evaluate site stability and drainage conditions given the coastal bluff setting.
