Burlington WA Homes

Burlington homes are affordable, unique, and convenient. The town itself is perfect for raising a family, starting a career, or relaxing for retiring, and the variety of Burlington homes can easily accommodate all of these.

Residents are fortunate to live in one of the few, truly affordable cities north of Seattle. With a median house price of $275,000 (as of July 2007, the time of this writing), buyers can afford just about any Burlington home, even those tens of thousands of dollars out of their price range in other, nearby cities.

Many Burlington homes boast a rich history and adorable, classic charm. Incorporated in 1902, one can find Burlington homes built even before the town was officially recognized. For the most part, homeowners have maintained the houses meticulously, and most of these older homes have been renovated several times. As a result, these popular and easy-to-find Burlington homes combine the unique style of century-old buildings with the latest technology, designs, and other features.

Of course, the town had to accommodate the ever-increasing population growth somehow, so hundreds of newer Burlington homes can also be found throughout the city. Usually constructed a few miles outside of the city's commercial hub, these Burlington homes have "tranquility" written all over them. Some of these gorgeous houses were developed on acres of land right in the majestic Skagit Valley. Residents can see for miles from their porches, and anyone who has been through the area can vouch for the incredible sunsets falling over the farmlands. Other, new, Burlington homes are constructed on some of the town's hills, providing an even more magnificent view. No matter what the geography, these Burlington homes include spacious designs and a peaceful atmosphere.

Many commuters find Burlington the perfect place to live. All Burlington homes are within minutes of two of the region's most popular routes - I-5 and State Route 20. Using I-5, residents are only 40 minutes from the thousands of jobs in Everett, 30 minutes from rapidly growing Bellingham, and an hour from Seattle and all the perks the big city has to offer (with none of the prices). Highway 20 ends in beautiful Anacortes to the west, and traverses the majestic Cascade Mountains to the east. Many families include one commuter and one local employee, taking advantage of the easy traveling as well as the many jobs right in town.

Whether buyers are looking to escape the rush of everyday life or be right in the heart of exciting commercial activity, there is a Burlington home to fit their needs.
