About Magnolia
Magnolia is a peninsula neighborhood bordered by Discovery Park, Puget Sound, and Salmon Bay — one of the most insulated, residential pockets in the city. The Village area provides walkable retail, but most of Magnolia is single-family living on quiet, curvy streets that wind along the bluff.
Buyers here are typically families and professionals looking for space, views, and access to one of the largest urban parks in the country. Bluff-top homes facing the Olympics command meaningful premiums, while interior streets offer relative value for the location.
