Kitsap County
Seabeck, 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 Parks; Kitsap County Parks; 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 Seabeck sell for?
The middle house sold for $656,250. That is the median of the 68 arm's-length sales the county recorded in Seabeck between June 3, 2025 and May 26, 2026.
- Median sale price
- $656,250The middle sale of the twelve months
- Houses sold
- 68Arm's-length sales the county recorded
- Median price per square foot
- $339Of finished living area
A median is the middle sale, not the average: half the houses sold for more and half for less, and one very large sale cannot drag it the way it drags an average. Only sales the Kitsap County Assessor coded as valid arm's-length transfers of a parcel with a house on it are counted, which is the same rule the sold record applies to the whole county.
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 has Seabeck done year by year?
Between 2021 and 2025, the number of Seabeck houses sold fell and what the middle one sold for rose.
Every year on that chart carries at least 10 recorded sales; a community with a thinner year is shown no chart at all rather than a line drawn across a gap. The years are the county's own, by the date it recorded each sale.
Does the shoreline change the Seabeck number?
4 of the 68 Seabeck sales in this window were coded waterfront by the Assessor. That is too few to publish a waterfront median beside the inland one, so the figure above counts both together.
Saying so matters more than it looks. A median that mixes the shoreline with the streets behind it describes neither, and a seller inland who reads a number lifted by a handful of waterfront sales as theirs has been given the wrong picture of their own house.
Whether a particular parcel is coded waterfront, and who owns the tideland below it, is on that parcel's own record. The sold record splits the whole county both ways.
What are Seabeck houses actually like?
The county holds a dwelling and a recorded lot size on 1,902 parcels under a Seabeck address. The middle one was built in 1995, has 2,020 square feet of finished living area, and sits on 2.47 acres.

- 1,44576% of the parcels
All of them are in unincorporated Kitsap County: there is no city of Seabeck 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 Seabeck?
Seabeck is unincorporated, on the Hood Canal side of the peninsula. Washington State Parks files Scenic Beach State Park under a Seabeck address, and Kitsap County Parks files two more.
The county files Seabeck addresses under one ZIP code, 98380. That postal boundary is what this page means by Seabeck, 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 Seabeck Conference Center's own history has the settlement founded in 1856 by Marshall Blinn as a lumber-mill town on a deep-water harbour, and grown to about four hundred people by 1877, larger than Seattle at the time.
That history gives the name as most likely after Blinn's home town of Seabec, Maine.
Which ferry terminal is nearest Seabeck?
The Bremerton terminal, 12.2 miles away as the map measures. These sail from it:
- Seattle / Bremerton Scheduled crossing 60 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 Seabeck in?
One: Central Kitsap School District. Every part of Seabeck's postal geography falls inside it.
- Central Kitsap School Districtwww.ckschools.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 public ground is there around Seabeck?
These, each named as the agency that keeps it names it.
- Scenic Beach State ParkWashington State Parks · At Scenic Beach Road NW.
- Guillemot Cove Nature ReserveKitsap County Parks · One hundred and eighty-four acres on Stavis Bay Road NW, with saltwater beach access and walking trails. No restrooms, and no animals.
- Nick's LagoonKitsap County Parks
The list is what the managing agencies file under a Seabeck address, rather than everything a person could drive to. Each entry names the agency that keeps it, so any of them can be checked against that agency's own list.
What is in Seabeck itself?
What the town has, each named as its operator names it.
- Seabeck Conference Centera nonprofit retreat centre · Ninety acres on Hood Canal, in operation since 1915.
- Misery Point boat launchWashington Department of Fish and Wildlife · One concrete ramp, open year round.
Seabeck 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 Seabeck each year?
Nothing this page can put a name and an organiser to. Seabeck 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 Seabeck?
On the Seabeck median of $656,250, a 1% listing fee is $6,562.50. One percent of any price is that price with two digits moved.
The Seabeck median recorded in the twelve months to May 26, 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| $656,250 | $6,562.50 | $19,687.50 | $13,125 |
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.
A listing fee is one line of a sale. The seller also owes Washington's graduated state excise tax, which is $7,455 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.
