Lake Union Is Hopping In Anticipation Of July Fourth!

Fourth of July On Lake Union is always a special Seattle treat!

Today is the last day of June and I find that the good weather has brought out the boats!  My floating home is ROCKING!  My son and I swam in the lake today, too!  Summers in Seattle are about as good as you can get and if you happen to live on one of our bodies of water then the season is even better. Lucky for you, it isn't that difficult to find a home on the water in Seattle.  Seattle waterfront homes come in many shapes and sizes and finding your perfect match will depend on your budget. Currently you an look in Madison Park and Washington Park and spend almost $13M for  Lake Washington waterfront home or you can spend less than $200,000 for a floating on water residence in Lake Union. I personally like the new construction Lake Union houseboats and the charming Seattle floating homes that we have to offer.
