Kitsap County
Keyport, by the county's numbers.
Everything below about what houses here sell for is computed from Kitsap County's own filings when this page loads, and everything about the place itself is cited to the agency that publishes it. Where the record is too thin to say something, this page says that instead of estimating.
The sale figures on this page are computed from Kitsap County's own recorded sales each time it is loaded, and are dated in the sections that state them. The places, boundaries and sailings were read in August 2026 from Washington State Ferries; U.S. Census Bureau, TIGERweb ZIP Code Tabulation Areas and Urban Growth Areas (2020 Census tabulation areas, ACS 2025 service). All of it changes; check anything here against the source before you rely on it.
What did houses in Keyport sell for?
Too few houses sold in Keyport in the last twelve months for a median to mean anything. The county recorded 7 arm's-length sales there, and this site does not publish a median on fewer than 10.
The floor is there because a median over a handful of sales swings by tens of thousands of dollars when one house on a big lot happens to change hands. A seller reading that as their own market would be getting a wrong picture of it.
So this page does not print one. What Keyport's sales are counted inside is North Kitsap, where the county recorded 687 qualifying sales in the same twelve months and the middle one was $660,000. That is the wider picture Keyport sits in, and it is the same rung a Home Record climbs to when a house's own neighbourhood is too quiet to read.
The figure that is genuinely Keyport's is further down this page: what the houses themselves are, which the county holds for every parcel whether or not it sold. And for one specific address, a free Home Record reads the sales actually nearest it rather than the ones inside a postal boundary.
The county's file runs to May 29, 2026, and the twelve months below are measured back from that last recorded sale rather than from today. County sales are filed weeks after they close, so a window ending today would always end in a stretch of calendar the record has not reached.
What are Keyport houses actually like?
The county holds a dwelling and a recorded lot size on 163 parcels under a Keyport address. The middle one was built in 1943, has 1,488 square feet of finished living area, and sits on 0.23 acres.

All of them are in unincorporated Kitsap County: there is no city of Keyport for a house to be inside. That decides which office holds the permit file and which rules a sale answers to.
This is the building stock rather than the market: it counts every parcel the county has a dwelling on file for, rather than the ones that sold. It does not move when the market does, which is what makes it useful for a community where few houses change hands in a year.
Where is Keyport?
Keyport is unincorporated. Naval Undersea Warfare Center Division Keyport is one of the largest commands aboard Naval Base Kitsap, which the Navy established in 2004 out of five installations on this peninsula, Keyport among them.
The county files Keyport addresses under one ZIP code, 98345. That postal boundary is what this page means by Keyport, and it is what a reader means by it too. It is not the Assessor's neighbourhood labels, which are things like Beach Drive and McCormick Village, and it is not the city limits.
The United States Naval Undersea Museum is in Keyport, admission is free, and the Navy lists it as one of ten museums it operates through the Naval History and Heritage Command.
Which ferry terminal is nearest Keyport?
The Bainbridge Island terminal, 7.6 miles away as the map measures. These sail from it:
- Seattle / Bainbridge Island Scheduled crossing 35 minutes.
About that distance. It is a straight line between two mapped points, not a drive. Roads on this peninsula bend around a great deal of water, so the drive is longer than the line, often considerably. Read it as which terminal is nearest, not as how long it takes to get there.
Why it belongs on a page about selling: every visit to the house that comes from across the water arrives on a boat. A showing, the inspector, the appraiser, a contractor giving a bid, each one is scheduled around a sailing, so grouping them into a few windows usually beats scattering them across a week. That is what the sailing times change about selling a house here.
Terminal and sailing details read from the Washington State Department of Transportation's ferries service on 2026-08-10. Schedules change seasonally; check WSDOT's own timetable before you plan around one.
Which school district is Keyport in?
One: North Kitsap School District. Every part of Keyport's postal geography falls inside it.
- North Kitsap School Districtwww.nkschools.org
Boundaries from the U.S. Census Bureau, which maintains them with the districts themselves. Which district a specific address is in, and which school a child at it would attend, are two different questions: attendance areas are drawn by each district's own board and can be redrawn yearly. Confirm with the district before anyone relies on it. A free Home Record resolves the district for one parcel rather than for a postal boundary.
What is in Keyport itself?
What the town has, each named as its operator names it.
- Port of Keyporta Washington public port district · A small marina with fourteen private slips, guest moorage and a boat launch ramp.
Keyport has no Kitsap Regional Library branch of its own; the district's nearest branches are in the larger towns around it. Worth knowing before you assume one is walkable.
What happens in Keyport each year?
Nothing this page can put a name and an organiser to. Keyport has no annual festival or market that we could confirm is still running, so this page lists none.
That is a statement about what we could check, rather than about the place. Smaller communities here run a good deal through community clubs and centres whose calendars are not published anywhere a page like this can cite. If something recurring is missing, tell Lorraine and it will be added with its organiser beside it.
What would a 1% listing fee come to in Keyport?
On the North Kitsap median of $660,000, a 1% listing fee is $6,600. One percent of any price is that price with two digits moved.
The North Kitsap median recorded in the twelve months to May 28, 2026, and arithmetic on it. The right-hand columns are arithmetic on the price, not a claim about what any other firm charges.
| Sale price | Listing fee at 1% | At 3% | Difference |
|---|---|---|---|
| $660,000 | $6,600 | $19,800 | $13,200 |
About the comparison rate. The second column is a worked example at 3%, not a statement about what any other firm charges. Commission rates are negotiable between a firm and its client and are not set by law or by any trade association; every firm sets its own, and so does Lorraine.
That median is North Kitsap's rather than Keyport's, for the reason given further up: Keyport did not carry enough sales for one of its own. A listing fee is one line of a sale. The seller also owes Washington's graduated state excise tax, which is $7,503 on a sale at that median before the local excise tax the city or county adds, plus title, escrow and the loan payoff. Those are set out one at a time in what it costs to sell a house in Washington, and the fee arithmetic itself in what a 1% listing fee comes to.
The median is the middle of what sold. It is not a valuation of any particular house, including yours; what your own house is worth comes out of the sales actually nearest it, which is what a Home Record assembles.
