LAKE VIEW APARTMENTS IN SHORELINE WASHINGTON

Lake view apartments in Shoreline, Seattle Washington

Echo Lake Apartments
(206) 546-2400 1150 North 192 Street Shoreline, Washington

Lake view living on my budget?  I didn’t think so until I found this then-hidden treasure of new construction and new pricing – affordable!  When I actually got inside and discovered luxury apartments and a panorama to die for I was afraid to ask the rent!

Well I’ve discovered the people running the place are not only apartment managers but caring individuals.  I’m jealous of their offices - they have a view even better than mine!  What does it tell you about a place when the director lives at work?  (Even the director doesn’t have the beautiful view I have!)  The Echo Lake Apartments management group doesn’t just treat you like a neighbor, they are in fact neighbors.

Within the Echo Lake Apartments grounds is the YMCA.  Like our residences, you can enjoy the same view while rock climbing indoors (I’d fall

for sure).  Felt right at home not using it.  But I did use the four months free membership. I prefer enjoying the view from the Jacuzzi.  After a great workout or swim, of course.

I must admit, during the recent replay of the 40-day flood I was reluctant to walk  from my apartment to the YMCA.  Hey, it’s at least 100 yards from our security entrance!  Go figure, there’s even a lake view walking there.  So I drive.  Can you imagine?  I actually rather take the elevator down to the security parking Echo Lake Apartments provides (not free this one, hey!) and drive two hundred yards so I’m right next to the YMCA front doors.  Yes, doors.  One door gives you the option of walking up or down two flights of apartment stairs (the open glass walls give you a great view while starting your workout with the stairs!) or my door – the one that takes you to the elevator where you can’t see anything but it’s comfortable.

Sometimes I just use the free gym within the Echo Lake Apartments.  Go down to the gym and enjoy the lake view with all the flora and fauna.  Outside.  Away from me.  Lake view on an elliptical trainer.  Does it get any better?  Yes, if I owned a lake view apartment, but that is not in my budget.  And isn’t that where we began?

Ever wonder what there is to do up here, north of Green Lake? Well, there's a place just north of Shoreline that's a blast for the entire family.

It's called WhirlyBall, and it's a combo of LaCrosse, Basketball and bumper cars. Yep, you read that right. BUMPER CARS!

What a great concept! You get to ram into other competitors while trying to score points for your team! WhirlyBall has been around for quite some time, and I've had fun there in the past. But I had all but forgotten about it until recently. So I thought I'd let all my blog readers know about it as well.

You can get in on beginner tournaments on your own, or bring a group of up to 40 people and reserve a whole court for a couple of hours.

Check it out and let me know what you think!

Shoreline, WA -- Break out the rain coats and umbrella.... Fall is officially here! In the real estate world, that has translated into lower condo sales in Shoreline, WA. After holding steady the past 2 months, the number of closed sales of condos in Shoreline dipped to just 3 closings in October 2009. A year ago, there were 5 condo closings. And these numbers are anemic. Back in the hay-day, numbers were much more brisk. In October 2006, for instance, we had 19 condo closings in Shoreline.

I don't expect the volume to change much for the 4th quarter of 2009. But what you might want to consider is the Days on Market (DOM) for listings the next three months. They have fluctuated quite wildly for condos this year. If you have a nice condo, it might actually make sense to list your condo now as marketing time can be as low as two months.
