Yarrow Point: the quietest address on the Points

Between Cozy Cove and Yarrow Bay, about 400 homes share a sunset-facing shoreline and a strong preference for privacy. Values range from around $3M inland to $20M and above on the water.

The same rules at a smaller scale

Everything true of Medina and Hunts Point applies here: estate exposure above the $3M exclusion, trust titling questions, private sales. Public data is even thinner. Assessed values on the Points lag market reality badly, so a defensible current valuation is the first document any planning conversation needs.

Access keeps demand steady

Yarrow Point's position on the SR-520 corridor makes it the most practical Points community for working executives, which keeps equity-compensated buyers interested even when nothing is listed. An owner who has considered selling at some point loses nothing by learning what a quiet approach would yield today.

Local specifics

Common questions

How do I find out what my home would sell for without listing it?

A private valuation and a quiet canvass of qualified buyers. No sign, no listing, no public record until you decide to proceed.

Does Washington's capital gains tax apply to selling my home here?

No. Sales of real estate are exempt from the Washington capital gains excise tax at any price. Federal rules, including the primary-residence exclusion, still apply. Confirm the details with your CPA.
