About English Hill
English Hill is Redmond's estate district — a forested plateau east of Downtown Redmond where the defining characteristic is lot size. Quarter-acre minimum lots are the norm, half-acre and larger parcels are common, and the neighborhood's tree cover gives even conventional-size homes a private, removed feel that is rare within 15 minutes of Microsoft.
The housing stock spans a wide range of eras — 1970s custom homes, 1990s builder construction, and newer semi-custom and custom builds. English Hill has been a consistent draw for buyers who want Redmond school district quality with genuine outdoor space — a combination that is increasingly difficult to find at any price point on the inner Eastside.
The neighborhood's eastern position means slightly longer commutes to Kirkland, Bellevue, and Seattle, but the trade-off in space and privacy is significant. Buyers here are typically families, acreage enthusiasts, and professionals who have made peace with the commute in exchange for a home where they actually want to spend their time.
