About Totem Lake
Totem Lake is North Kirkland's urban village — a rapidly evolving mixed-use district built around EvergreenHealth Medical Center (one of the region's top community hospitals), the redesigned Totem Lake Mall retail center, and a growing inventory of modern apartments and townhomes within walking distance of daily services.
For buyers, Totem Lake offers the Eastside's best combination of walkable urban infrastructure and Lake Washington School District quality at prices significantly below downtown Kirkland waterfront. The neighborhood's residential stock ranges from established 1970s single-family homes in the surrounding blocks to newer townhomes and condos in the village core.
Totem Lake draws a mix of healthcare professionals (EvergreenHealth proximity), tech employees who need I-405 access, and buyers targeting the Juanita and Inglemoor High School attendance areas. The Cross Kirkland Corridor trail runs through the neighborhood, giving cyclists and pedestrians car-free access south to Downtown Kirkland.
