Bainbridge Island is in the heart of Puget Sound eight miles directly west of downtown Seattle via a 30 minute commute by super ferry, and is approximately the size of Manhattan Island. Most residents commute to Seattle for work but many, such as artists and writers, work at home in this relaxed peaceful community. The Island is scenic with splendid water and mountain views, and is connected by bridge to the Kitsap Peninsula, which offers many varied recreation opportunities. A long established full service real estate brokerage whose agents offer personalized service based on their depth of experience and intimate knowledge of the Island, Coldwell Banker McKenzie specializes in exclusive estates, homes nestled on wooded acreage, prime view and waterfront properties.
