Bridle Trails is a distinctive residential area spanning Kirkland and Bellevue, known for its spacious lots, equestrian heritage, and wooded privacy. Centered around Bridle Trails State Park, the neighborhood offers a rare blend of natural surroundings and proximity to major Eastside employment centers.
Bridle Trails is one of the Eastside’s most unique and tightly held neighborhoods, defined by its expansive properties, mature evergreens, and strong connection to nature. Located between Kirkland and Bellevue, the area is anchored by Bridle Trails State Park, a 482-acre park featuring miles of trails for walking, riding, and recreation.
The neighborhood’s real estate is characterized by larger parcels, custom-built homes, and a sense of privacy that is increasingly rare on the Eastside. Properties range from classic Northwest and mid-century residences to thoughtfully updated homes and custom estates, many with room for horses, guest houses, or expansive outdoor living spaces. Zoning and lot sizes contribute to a low-density, estate-style feel that appeals to buyers seeking space and long-term value.
Despite its tranquil setting, Bridle Trails is exceptionally well located—minutes from downtown Bellevue, Kirkland, Redmond, and major tech campuses. This balance of seclusion and access makes the neighborhood especially attractive to those who want breathing room without sacrificing convenience.
With its preserved green space, distinct identity, and enduring appeal, Bridle Trails continues to stand out as one of the Eastside’s most coveted residential environments.
