Starfire Sports Complex is the Seattle Reign FC training home in Tukwila, tucked along the Green River in the Renton/Tukwila valley with immediate I-405 and I-5 access. It sits minutes from the Southcenter retail hub and a short hop from the upscale Eastside (Newcastle, Mercer Island, Bellevue) and the Lake Washington waterfront. This guide radiates from the practice facility, not Lumen Field downtown.
Quiet ridge city between Renton and Bellevue anchored by The Golf Club at Newcastle, with gated custom-home enclaves like The Reserve and sweeping Lake Washington and Seattle skyline views.
An entire island in Lake Washington with palatial waterfront estates behind gated drives, top schools, and a small-town town center, sitting midway between the facility and downtown Seattle.
Forested southeast Bellevue hillside of larger custom homes with panoramic valley and Cascade views, backing onto Cougar Mountain wildland and feeding into the top-rated Bellevue and Issaquah school systems.
Renton's most desirable lakeside pocket along the east shore of Lake Washington, with waterfront and view homes a short drive from Gene Coulon park and the Southport waterfront district.
The neighborhoods above sit inside a twenty-minute drive of Starfire Sports Complex. But many athletes prioritize lifestyle, privacy, and prestige over commute — these are the areas across Seattle where athletes most often buy and rent, even though they’re a longer drive from the facility.
A tiny gated-feeling waterfront city across Lake Washington from Seattle, home to Bill Gates and a roster of tech billionaires, with the priciest ZIP (98039) in Washington at roughly a $4.4M median. Street-to-water estates, deep setbacks, and a private police force make it the metro's most rarefied address.
Two minuscule incorporated points jutting into Lake Washington where nearly every lot is street-to-water, commanding some of the most coveted shoreline in the region. Quiet, hyper-low-density, and walled off by hedges and private docks.
An entire island in the middle of Lake Washington with its own school district, private beaches, and panoramic skyline-and-mountain views; ZIP 98040 sits among the state's most expensive. A mix of modern architectural showpieces and gated waterfront estates.
Clyde Hill's large hilltop lots and West Bellevue's Lake Washington shoreline form the metro's marquee athlete corridor — Russell Wilson and Ciara's 11,000-sq-ft Bellevue estate (sold for ~$31M) sat here. Sweeping views of downtown, the lake, and the Olympics, with new-build smart mansions throughout.
