When shopping for a home in the Seattle area, water vistas are great, but being able to peep the Cascades, Olympics, or Mount Rainier on a regular basis is a major amenity.

We’ve compiled a few recent listings where the mountain views are top notch.

Rustic Laurelhurst pad, 4545 Sand Point Way NW | $459,000 | 2 BR, 1 BA | Is the Mountain out? Ask yourself the question every morning in this cozy condo that looks out toward Rainier. It’s near the Burke-Gilman Trail and has a private balcony, too. (Listed by Codi Nelson/Windermere)

Eastside condo looking to the Cascades, 3422 161st Court SE, No. 21 | $775,000 | 2 BR, 2 BA | It’s hard to beat the epic scenery from this bright East Bellevue home that offers three separate decks and vaulted ceilings. (Listed by Bryan Hulen/Compass)
