Kenmore, WA Real Estate

Kenmore, occasionally known as "Kenmore by the Lake," is a city in the United States located on the northernmost shores of Lake Washington in King County, Washington. Prominent features include several waterside parks, the nation's largest seaplane-only commercial air facility, Bastyr University, easy access to the Burke-Gilman Trail and the King County bike-trail system, and other features of local historical interest such as the former St. Edward Seminary, now Saint Edward State Park. Kenmore's official city flower is the dahlia, the official city bird is the great blue heron, and the official city evergreen is the rhododendron. The population was 18,678 at the 2000 census.

Founded in 1901, Kenmore's name comes third-hand from the Scottish village of Kenmore, via town founder John McMasters' home town of Kenmore, Ontario. John and his wife Anne arrived in Puget Sound circa 1889 from Canada, intending to establish themselves in the shingle-making trade, eventually opening their own shingle mill on the northern shore of Lake Washington on land leased from Watson Squire. By 1903, Kenmore had established a school system and post office [1], but did not formally incorporate as a city until August 31, 1998.
