Redmond, one of the Eastside's oldest communities, could be considered a town of  stark contrasts. On the one hand, it is home to such nationally-known  corporations as Microsoft, Nintendo of America, Eddie Bauer, Physio-Control and  Allied Signal Aerospace. On the other hand, residents enjoy homes surrounded by  pine trees, streams, farmland and incredible mountain and lake views. No wonder  Redmond is one of Washington's fastest growing cities.

Located on the  north shore of Lake Sammamish at the base of the Cascade Mountains, Redmond  is a charming community that has embraced the future while maintaining its rural  past. Its easy access to both water and mountain activities makes it an ideal  spot for recreational enthusiasts. It even bills itself as the "Bicycle Capital  of the Northwest," hosting major racing events and one of the nation's few  velodromes. It's also home to a burgeoning arts community.

Housing  opportunities are as varied as its recreational and employment options.   Prospective homebuyers can choose properties featuring acreage, old farmhouses,  lakefront property, condominiums, new upscale housing developments, or more  traditional family-style neighborhoods. From high-tech headquarters to its  natural Northwest setting, Redmond truly has found the best of both worlds.
