Escape the buzz of the city by slipping away to the Edgemoor neighborhood, the focus of this week’s Neighborhood Spotlight. Edgemoor is a beautiful and secluded neighborhood right on the edge of Bellingham Bay, in the Southwest corner of Bellingham. The neighborhood is filled with large lots and mature landscape, and the most southern area of the the area has some of the nicest properties in the entire city. The neighborhood also has spectacular views of the bay and the San Juan islands. Edgemoor is the perfect place for people looking to settle down, or for people who just want to escape the noise of the city.
Edgemoor Provides Peace & Quiet
The Edgemoor neighborhood is home to some spectacular outdoor trails and activities. The most popular is Clark’s Point, a peninsula that extends over Bellingham Bay. There are trails that allow you to take a walk through it down to Chuckanut Bay, as well scenic views at every turn. Clark’s Point is protected from further development, so you know the natural feel of the neighborhood is here to stay. If you’re looking to head to civilization, Edgemoor is just minutes from downtown Fairhaven. Fairhaven is a wonderful little downtown area filled with local stores and delicious food, but still manages to keep that old-timey feel. There are always things to do when you’re living in this neighborhood, but the biggest appeal might be the peaceful and relaxing environment. You’ll never have to worry about noise complaints from the college or from downtown living in this neighborhood.

Elementary schoolers in the neighborhood attend Larabee, Lowell, or Happy Valley Elementary School, while middle schoolers attend Fairhaven Middle School. Once moving to high school, students will attend Sehome High School.
