South Hill
Neighborhood
South
Hill is one of Bellingham's most sought after, popular neighborhoods.
Many of the homes in this neighborhood have fantastic views of Bellingham
Bay, the San Juan & Gulf Islands, the Canadian mountains, and
great sunsets. There are many older turn of the century homes in the
area that vary in size and architectural style from Victorian Mansions
to simple cottages. The Ridgeway area, south of the university has
the highest elevations on the hill, it is one of the newer areas of
South hill developed after World War II, so you will find a mix of
homes from the !950's to present represented there.
There
are also many View Condos along State Street and Boulevard, those
on the west side of Boulevard have unobstructed views and sit above
Boulevard Park, one of Bellingham's great and most popular parks offering
barbebque areas, trails, a small boat landing, losts of shoreline,
as well as some great summer outdoor concerts. The newly constructed
Taylor Street Dock, south of Boulevard Park, is a new asset to the
neighborhood providing a grea tplace for walking and viewing the Bay,
and the Fairhaven waterfront. The neighborhood is close to Fairhaven,
WWU and downtown. It is a great place to live.
