Gregory Heights pairs classic mid-century homes with tall evergreens and lake breezes, creating a comfortable pocket of everyday convenience within Burien. Residents love being minutes from shoreline sunsets at the city’s signature Seahurst Park, where forested trails drop to a wide pebble beach, and from playgrounds and open lawns at Lake Burien School Memorial Park. Coffee spots, neighborhood eateries, and the small-business energy of downtown are close, while quick connections make commuting into Seattle straightforward.
Families are drawn to the strong local school network served by Highline Public Schools, with Gregory Heights Elementary, Sylvester Middle School, and Highline High School commonly in the mix. Summer often revolves around swim team practices and barbecues at the member-based Gregory Seahurst Swim Club, a beloved community hub that anchors many neighborhood traditions.
Weekends in Gregory Heights are pleasantly full: tidepooling at Seahurst, shooting hoops at the park, or meeting friends in Olde Burien before a short coastal drive to neighboring Normandy Park. Tree-canopied streets encourage evening strolls, and many homes feature spacious yards, garages, and thoughtful updates that respect their period architecture.
