About Genesee Hill

Genesee Hill rises west of the Junction and east of Alki, with elevation that delivers some of the broadest views in West Seattle — downtown, Elliott Bay, and the Olympics from many homes. The neighborhood is residential, quiet, and family-friendly.

Housing is a mix of mid-century single-family, classic Craftsman on the older streets, and contemporary view homes that have replaced original cottages on premium lots. Buyers come specifically for the view potential and proximity to the Junction.
