Bellevue Landscaping

If you have a home or apartment in Bellevue, you probably have a pretty stylish and new abode. Bellevue, after all, is known for being one of the most desirable spots outside of Seattle proper. Not only is it centrally located, but it’s also the base for some of the nicest homes in the state of Washington. And with more jobs than residents, Bellevue is the perfect location for those looking to relocate during the down economy.

The one drawback to Bellevue real estate, however, is that the lots tend to be small. That doesn’t mean you can’t employ some Bellevue landscape architecture in your backyard, but you will have to consider spatial limitations. In order to have a home with a yard, you’re going to have to look on the outskirts of the city limits or perhaps venture into the suburbs. But don’t feel like you have to find multiple acres of land—with the convenience of local parks and trails, there are ample opportunities to enjoy the natural beauty of Western Washington.

Bellevue, across the water from Seattle, is an urban metropolis which features cultural diversity, contemporary comforts, and excellent food. Though not near the size of Seattle, Bellevue’s downtown area features some of the tallest buildings in Washington, and home to some recognized global corporations including Symetra, Eddie Bauer, and T-Mobile. Bellevue is also known for high technology, with Microsoft’s North American Sales Group headquarters occupying the top half of the Lincoln Square office tower, and game development giant Valve (makers of Half-Life, Team Fortress, Counter Strike) located downtown. Bellevue has placed itself as a premier Northwest destination for shopping, with its renowned Bellevue Square; a multiple story indoor mall featuring hundreds of different stores and famous Northwest restaurants like Red Robin.

Despite Bellevue’s urban metropolis downtown, the city features several suburban areas in which residential homes are located. If you want to be located in the heart of the city, you probably will have to be within a few feet of your neighbors. However, there are many areas with exquisite Bellevue landscape designs and ample room to raise a family.
