Talbot Park

Talbot Park is Edmonds' most exclusive residential enclave — a neighborhood of upscale single-family homes on large, private lots, many with gated entries, trailing driveways, and dense evergreen screening. The median sale price sits around $1.7M, with homes regularly reaching into the $2-3M range. Named after Pope and Talbot, the early timber company that once owned the surrounding forest, the neighborhood is bordered by the 120-acre Southwest County Park (a passive wildlife preserve) and offers a quiet, almost rural feel while remaining minutes from downtown Edmonds and I-5.

Talbot Park is entirely car-dependent — there are no commercial amenities within walking distance. The neighborhood's appeal is privacy, space, and proximity to nature. Southwest County Park (120 acres) borders the neighborhood and offers nature trails through a designated passive wildlife preserve with Perrinville Creek (trout and salmon stream). Residents drive 5-10 minutes to downtown Edmonds for dining and culture, or east to Alderwood Mall, Trader Joe's, Fred Meyer, and Costco along the Highway 99/I-5 corridor.
