The Shumway in Kirkland
In the heart of downtown Kirkland steps from shops, restaurants and the hustle and bustle is a well kept secret. Driving by on Lake Washington Blvd. a glimpse of an entry gate, a tranquil waterfall, and a bronze statue of an Indian woman are the only indicators that this beautiful 5 acre condominium site exists. Located across the street from David E. Brink lake front park The Shumway for those who know is a coveted
place to call home.
A rich history proceeds The Shumway condominiums. In 1905 a family of 8 brothers and sisters purchased the original 7 acre site . Led by Elizabeth Shumway it appears that she persuaded her siblings into contributing $5,000 to build a home that would become known as the Shumway Mansion. The Mansion itself has been moved to Juanita and is now a bed and breakfast and reception center.
The Shumway is a secure gated community of 74 homes. Currently there are only 4 homes on the market. Luxury details and flexible floor plans make each home unique. At $499,950 Unit E101 is a fabulous value. This is the least expensive unit in the project. A spacious 1 bedroom, 2 bath home with over 1,300 sq. ft. of living space.
