Market context
Why Three Tree Point is south King County's best waterfront value.
Three Tree Point is a peninsula — which means it is surrounded by water on three sides and every home benefits from either direct waterfront access or deep water views. For buyers who have looked at Mercer Island waterfront and been priced out at $5M+, Three Tree Point offers a genuine alternative: comparable Sound views and waterfront character at roughly half the price. The difference is the postal address — south King County vs the Eastside — which is a trade-off the right buyer finds easy to make.
Private dock access is the defining premium at Three Tree Point. Homes with dock rights provide direct access to Puget Sound for boating, fishing, and kayaking from your own backyard — something that is simply unavailable at most Puget Sound locations south of Seattle. The dock market here is a distinct sub-market, and buyers should evaluate dock condition, water depth, and dock rights status carefully. RexMont's agents know which questions to ask and which third-party inspectors to engage for waterfront-specific due diligence.
Because Three Tree Point is fully developed and low in turnover, inventory is extremely limited. Many of the best homes change hands through agent networks before ever appearing on the MLS. RexMont maintains relationships across the south King County market and can surface off-market and pre-market opportunities for buyers who are registered with our Buyer-Ready program. If you are serious about Three Tree Point, the right move is to engage a specialist now rather than waiting for a Zillow alert.

FAQ
Questions buyers and sellers ask first.
What makes Three Tree Point unique?
Three Tree Point is one of the most exclusive waterfront communities in south King County — a peninsula that juts into Puget Sound west of Burien, offering true waterfront living with private docks and unobstructed Sound views. It is a low-density enclave where many homes sit directly on the water. The combination of deep-water dock access, privacy, and a naturalistic peninsula setting is almost impossible to find anywhere on the Sound south of Mercer Island.
What price range should I expect at Three Tree Point?
Waterfront homes with dock rights at Three Tree Point typically range from $1.5 million to $4 million or more depending on lot position, water frontage, dock quality, and interior finishes. Non-waterfront homes on the peninsula range from approximately $900,000 to $1.5 million. The premium for true waterfront over peninsula-interior is substantial and consistent — buyers should budget accordingly and work with an agent who understands how to evaluate dock rights and water-frontage quality.
Is Three Tree Point a good long-term investment?
True waterfront with private dock access on Puget Sound is a finite and irreplaceable asset. Supply at Three Tree Point is structurally constrained — the peninsula is fully developed, and the only way to own here is to buy from an existing owner. Historically, waterfront properties with dock rights on the Sound appreciate strongly over time and hold value better than inland homes during market downturns. Buyers who can afford the entry point tend to hold these homes long-term, which further constrains supply and supports values.
Which schools serve Three Tree Point?
Three Tree Point falls within the Highline School District. Students typically attend local Highline elementary and middle schools before attending Highline High School. As with any south King County purchase, RexMont recommends verifying school assignments directly with Highline School District before purchase, as boundaries can shift and specific elementary assignments vary by address.
Can RexMont help me buy a home at Three Tree Point?
Yes. RexMont Real Estate has experience across south King County waterfront markets including Three Tree Point, Seahurst, and Redondo Beach. Because Three Tree Point is low-inventory and many sales happen off-market or through agent networks, working with a well-connected local brokerage significantly increases your access to available homes. With 1,235 Google 5-star reviews and over $1 billion in closed transactions, RexMont has the network and expertise to help you navigate this exclusive market.
