Alki exudes a casual, seaside town charm. This waterfront neighborhood in
West Seattle, reminiscent of a laid-back Hawaiian vibe, is an ideal communal hub of waterfront luxury, unique shopping and dining experiences, and seasonal activities. Even in winter, the main boulevard, Alki Avenue SW, which becomes Beach Drive SW at Alki Point, remains a vibrant gathering spot with open restaurants and fun activities.
Regardless of your particular address in this coveted section enclave, you're afforded breathtaking views of Puget Sound, the Seattle skyline, and Bainbridge Island, easy access to some of the city's best amenities, and an enviable lifestyle that balances relaxation with sophistication.
If, however, you're seeking the height of
Alki's luxurious waterfront lifestyle, you'll want to explore three of the area's most notable condo buildings. A mix of old and new, these residences feature opulent features, stunning locations, and an unmatched luxury lifestyle.
Infinity Shore Club Residences
1250 Alki Avenue SW
The newest condo building to grace the Alki waterfront,
The Infinity Shore Club Residences, offers a resort lifestyle with homes ranging from 1,108 to 2,382 square feet.

Infinity's 37 units rest beachside within a high-quality concrete and steel, low-level structure, offering a unique residential resort aesthetic. Each residence within this boutique building features high ceilings and NanaWall glass wall systems, creating an airy, expansive environment that lets the outdoors in. Many homes boast private terraces for larger outdoor living spaces. Kitchens have premium Miele appliances, gas cooking, quartz countertops, and custom frameless cabinetry. The spa-like baths feature modern finishes, floating vanities, walk-in showers, oversized tubs, and concealed storage.
The Pinnacle
1118 Alki Avenue SW
A few steps from Infinity Shores,
The Pinnacle is a modern waterfront condo building completed in 2020. This six-story, 11-unit residence offers sweeping 200-degree views of the Seattle skyline, Elliott Bay, and the Olympic Mountains—some of the best views in West Seattle—from every home via private balconies and the stunning rooftop deck.
The soaring atrium entry and walls of windows illuminate the open floor plan, creating a perfect setting for lively entertaining and comfortable living. The residences offer a unique level of privacy for a condominium with only two residences per floor. The three-bedroom homes feature a primary suite with custom built-ins, two fireplaces, two storage units, secure parking, and elevator access, the latter two managed by a thoughtful and meticulous HOA. The kitchens are a bespoke experience featuring a quartz waterfall island, Wolf appliances, and designer cabinetry.
Moments away, sandy beaches, charming restaurants, and the water taxi await, inviting you to breathe in the ocean air and embrace the Alki lifestyle. Situated at the northernmost point of Alki Beach Park, The Pinnacle is a model of northwest contemporary design with luxury finishes in an unparalleled location. This is modern waterfront living at its finest.
