Link to more photos & virtual tour: http://www.realestateshows.com/264163 Neighborhood Description This area is a great, convenient location. Located in north Kirkland on the east side of I-405, you are minutes from shopping in Redmond Town Center, Woodinville, south to Bellevue Square, north to Alderwood Mall. There are movie theatres close by in all the shopping areas, plus you are 5 minutes from Lake Washington beaches and parks in Juanita and Kirkland, and downtown Kirkland with it's restaurants, night life and art galleries. The Totem Lake Mall, long considered by locals as "the dead mall", is due to be completely re-done into a "Lifestyle", mixed use shopping area within the next few years. There will be offices, retail and condos and apartments. Current renderings of the planned improvements can be reviewed on the city of Kirkland website. If you prefer to use public transit or carpooling for commuting rather than one vehicle, the nearly completed, expanded Kingsgate/Totem Lake Transit Center is a dream! Special on/off ramps for transit and carpools make freeway access a breeze. And with the park and ride and transit stops adjacent to the freeway, even public transit is more convenient. If you like to job, bike, walk, etc you are just over the hill from the Sammamish River Trail (which connects to the East Lake Sammamish Trail to the south and the Burke Gilman Trail to the north). This paved trail is located adjacent to the Sammamish River (or Slough) around which is clustered the Woodinville Wine District. There are now over 40 winery tasting rooms in Woodinville and this area is fast becoming a wine lovers destination. Also just over the hill to the east is the location of the planned (and begun) Woodinville Wine Village. This planned development will features condos, apartments, winery tasting rooms and facilities, restaurants and high end hotel with conference spaces. Living in the Totem Lake area, you are in the middle of all that is fun in life while being close to many eastside employment centers and easy access to commute corridors.
