Along Lake Washington Boulevard
Lakeview stretches along Lake Washington Boulevard south of downtown Kirkland, with condos and townhomes facing the water and single-family homes climbing the slope behind them. Waterfront living has its own moisture patterns: groundwater rises close to the lake in winter, and buildings on slopes collect runoff on their uphill sides. In multi-unit buildings, a leak in one home is often found first in another.
The Houses Here
Expect waterfront condominiums, townhomes with views and stairs, and houses on hillside lots up from the shore. Garages and lower floors of buildings near the water sit closest to the water table.
Where Water Comes From in Lakeview
- Groundwater in lower floors and garages near the shore
- Leaks between condo units through ceilings and shared walls
- Hillside runoff behind lakeside homes
- Upstairs bathrooms in townhomes
