Pacific Northwest luxury: Seattle-area homes extend into multi-million dollar range
Home of the Starbucks headquarters, tech titans and grunge, Seattle-area luxury homes are on the market for more than eight figures.
From oil tycoons to CEOs and NFL superstars like Russell Wilson and his famous wife Ciara, it’s hard not to see why the Pacific Northwest region is appealing; the Seattle Seahawks QB even bought his mom a home in the area for mother’s day.
“All these years you have never asked me for anything,” he said on Instagram.
“… only thing you every wanted is for me to LOVE.”
With lush green scenery and plenty of space – you can see why luxury isn’t too hard to find.
