Queen Anne

Classic homes, hilltop views, and Kerry Park's postcard look at the city.

My take

Why I loved living on Queen Anne.

Queen Anne pairs beautiful, established streets with some of the best views in the city. It's close to everything downtown yet feels like its own neighborhood, with a walkable main street at the top of the hill.

What to know before you buy

A few things worth watching.

Views: A view adds significant value but isn't always protected; we'll look at what could be built nearby.
Hills: Streets are steep in places; consider parking, stairs, and winter driving.
Older homes: Many date to the early 1900s; plan for a sewer scope and a thorough inspection.
Condos: Review HOA financials and reserves carefully.
