Barkley


From high atop Barkley hill and the newly constructed hiking paths connecting this wonderful neighborhood to Bellingham’s Interurban trail system, to the centrally located upscale Barkley Village, this community remains one of the areas most sought-after neighborhoods.

Since 2000, the Barkley neighborhood has been outdoor enthusiasts’ preferred area to walk—morning, noon and night—to catch a glimpse of Bellingham’s spectacular views of the bay and the nearby San Juan Islands. Stop and watch the daily sunsets along Chandler Boulevard and see why people move to this beautiful area in the great Northwest.

Barkley Village contains most everything one may need: fine dining restaurants, upscale clothing stores, groceries with fruits and vegetables from local farms, medical and dental offices, banking and investment institutions, and much more.

The neighborhood schools are top notch and continue to be some of the best in the Bellingham School District. They are easily accessible and within walking distance for many residents.

The Barkley Neighborhood is nature’s gift all four seasons of the year.  Its ideal location is minutes to beautiful Lake Whatcom for all of your recreational needs and approximately 75 minutes to breathtaking Mt. Baker for skiing, biking, and hiking. Enjoy this wonderful neighborhood!
