The Neighborhood
Beacon Hill
Beacon Hill runs along a ridge from north of the I-90 interchange to the Columbia City area, with commanding views of downtown Seattle to the northwest and Mount Rainier to the southeast. The neighborhood is one of the most ethnically diverse in Seattle, with a long history as a middle-class residential area that has maintained that character while the surrounding city has changed.
Jefferson Park, at the northern end of the ridge, offers golf, playfields, and a community center. The views from the ridge are among the most underappreciated in the city; residents have the downtown skyline on one side and the Cascades on the other.

Real Estate
Real Estate in Beacon Hill
Single-family homes and bungalows define the Beacon Hill residential market. Pricing has risen as buyers from Capitol Hill and the Central District have moved south along the light rail line. Homes with unobstructed city or mountain views carry meaningful premiums.
The housing stock spans a wide age range and an equally wide range of conditions. Buyers should inspect carefully and evaluate the specific location within the long ridge carefully; proximity to the station, views, and access routes all vary considerably by block.
Housing Types
- Single-family homes
- Bungalows
- Smaller multi-family
