Neighborhood guide

Mercer Island isn't a monolith. Each pocket has its own feel, price range, and demand profile.

North End
$1.6M – $6M+

Walkable to the Town Center, P-Patch and Luther Burbank Park. Mix of mid-century and new construction. Strong demand from families wanting Northwood Elementary.

Town Center
$750K – $2M

Condos, townhomes, and a growing restaurant scene. Best option for buyers entering the island under $1.5M.

East Seattle
$1.8M – $5M

Older established neighborhood on the northwest shore. Beautiful tree canopy and quick I-90 access.

South End
$2M – $10M+

Larger lots, view properties, and waterfront. Quieter, more residential — popular with families putting down long-term roots.

Waterfront
$5M – $25M+

Lake Washington waterfront homes are some of the most coveted real estate in the Pacific Northwest. Limited supply, strong appreciation.
