Queen Anne Blog About Queen Anne Neighborhood and Homes For Sale: Queen Anne Real Estate Update 2010
Queen Anne has been MOVING! Lots of new inventory to choose from, too. There are 102 Active Residential Queen Anne listings right now! Homes range from a $249,000 for a “multi level” which usually means townhouse by the way to a $4,950,000 for a newer beauty on Highland Drive.
At $649,000, you can get a Queen Anne view townhome with sweeping views of the Puget Sound listed by my friend Claudia. This is a really great place, by the way. I sold the one next door just a couple months ago and these places are a knock out!!! They have high end finish work and the builders are dolls. The listing agent was also a dream to work with. I also happen to personally know that the neighbors are nice. Claudia also has a commercial space on Aurora listed for very cheap if you are interested – $138,000 in Queen Anne for commercial!
Queen Anne Townhomes: There is a large segment of these active residential listings that are townhomes and you can get some nice views from the newer ones that are laid out to take into consideration the view. Take the Ward Street Townhomes, for instance. I just sold one of those last month – they are amazing! I sold 566C which had an amazing roof top deck with a gas fireplace and sweeping views of the city, bamboo floors, and more – very cool and one of the buildings which happens to be under that Sterling Saving special right now where you can get the lender to contribute up to $20k towards your closing costs, etc.
Queen Anne Pending Sales – Right now under contract, there are 19 homes for sale in Queen Anne waiting to close – they range from $325,000 for a short sale to $1,965,000 for one of the wonderful West Queen Anne School units (- the Gym:) I am pretty sure my kids’ great grandfather must have gone here as a boy. I love that they converted these back in the eighties and this unit is spectacular. )

Queen Anne real estate tips: if you have a home to sell, now is a good time – Queen Anne is known to be a strong real estate market and there is a good demand for homes that are priced well and presented nicely – both in person and definitely on the internet. Buyers want well maintained homes and view homes are of course popular, but proximity to Queen Anne Ave and the Boulevard for shopping and trails is also important. Look at your WalkScore and see how your home rates. Walk ability and accessibility is becoming more and more important to many Queen Anen buyers.
