The Home

Sixteen Years of Thoughtful Ownership

Sixteen years of thoughtful ownership show everywhere in this Bridle Trails home, minutes from the state park's forested riding and walking trails in one of Kirkland's most established pockets.

More than $330,000 in documented improvements since 2010: a full kitchen remodel with quartzite counters, custom cabinetry, and built-in Sonos, a completely rebuilt backyard made for long summer evenings with café lighting, an outdoor fireplace, putting green, and raised garden beds, refinished hardwoods, a temperature-controlled wine cellar, and a bonus room built for movie nights with projector and screen.

5 bedrooms, 2.75 baths, and 3,350 square feet, plus a 3-car garage with EV charging and a new water heater in 2025.

Tucked off a quiet dead-end street, yet walkable to all three Lake Washington schools, a mile from daily errands, and an easy ride down the Cross Kirkland Corridor to the waterfront and dinner in downtown Kirkland. Turnkey, and proudly cared for.

What Sets It Apart

The Improvements Tell the Story

A Kitchen Rebuilt for Gathering

The 2018 remodel brought quartzite counters, custom cabinetry, a professional gas range, and built-in Sonos. It anchors the great room and opens straight to the deck.

A Backyard Built for Summer

Completely rebuilt in 2021: café lighting, an outdoor fireplace, a putting green, raised garden beds, and a composite deck that carries dinner well past sunset.

A Proper Wine Cellar

Temperature controlled, with full-height racking behind a glass door. Not a closet with a rack, a cellar.

Movie Nights, Built In

The upstairs bonus room was made for the job: projector, screen, and a wall of built-in cabinetry from the 2015 update.

Three-Car Garage, EV Ready

620 square feet of attached garage with EV charging, plus a gas water heater new in 2025 with a 15-year warranty.

The Bridle Trails Position

A quiet dead-end street minutes from the state park's forested trails, walkable to all three Lake Washington schools, and four blocks from the NE 70th St interchange on 405.

The Neighborhood

Bridle Trails

Bridle Trails is one of Kirkland's most established neighborhoods, named for the 480-plus acres of forested riding and walking trails in the adjacent state park. The equestrian character endures, but the daily draw is simpler: quiet streets under mature evergreens, all three Lake Washington schools within a walk, daily errands about a mile away, and the Cross Kirkland Corridor carrying you to the downtown waterfront by bike.

Bridle Trails State Park

More than 480 acres of forested trails for riding, running, and walking, minutes from the front door. The park gives the neighborhood its name and its character.

Lake Washington Schools

Franklin Elementary, Rose Hill Middle, and Lake Washington High, all in the Lake Washington School District and all walkable from this street.

Connected, Quietly

The NE 70th St interchange on 405 is four blocks away, putting downtown Kirkland, Bellevue, and the Eastside tech corridors within easy reach. The dead-end street keeps all of it at a distance.
