A small waterfront town in North Kitsap with a fast ferry straight into downtown Seattle.
Kingston is a small waterfront town in northeast Kitsap County, home to about 2,800 residents, connected to Seattle by a roughly 30-minute ferry crossing.
The town scores 88 out of 100 for livability — top 10 in Washington State — with unemployment around 1.8% and average household income over $150,000. Cost of living runs about 16% above the national average, with housing costs roughly 79% above, and median home prices in the high $600s to low $700s.
The Edmonds–Kingston ferry provides a commuter connection, and the Kitsap Fast Ferry has offered direct service to downtown Seattle since 2018 — making Kingston a strong fit for hybrid workers and families who want small-town life without giving up Seattle access.
Our marketing approach here leans on professional video, drone footage, and targeted digital advertising to Seattle-area buyers — selling the lifestyle, not just the property.
