Education Hill homes for sale & neighborhood guide
Established single-family Redmond near top schools, parks, and an easy Microsoft commute.
Living in Education Hill
Education Hill is one of Redmond's most established and sought-after single-family neighborhoods, occupying the rise north of downtown. As the name suggests, it's anchored by schools and parks, and it has long been a favorite for buyers who want a detached home with a yard within an easy commute of Redmond's tech employers.
The housing is predominantly single-family — a mix of homes from the 1970s through newer construction, on traditional suburban lots, with some newer infill and townhome developments toward the edges. Compared with downtown Redmond's condos and townhomes, Education Hill is where buyers go for space, a yard, and a quieter residential setting.
Proximity to Hartman Park, the Redmond Pool, and a short drive to downtown Redmond's light rail and dining give the neighborhood both recreational and practical appeal. Demand is steady from buyers who want top schools and a Microsoft-area commute, and well-presented homes move quickly.
