Wedged between Northeast Seattle and Meadowbrook, the Wedgewood neighborhood is also commonly spelled as Wedgwood. Whether you acknowledge the second “e” or not, you should know that the neighborhood is undeniably charming, offering an array of cafes, shops, restaurants, and service-oriented stores among lush greenery on 35th Avenue Northeast, Wedgwood’s main commercial thoroughfare.
Wedgwood is otherwise largely residential, providing a variety of elegant houses and luxury apartments available for rent. Residents are typically drawn to the neighborhood’s natural beauty, peaceful atmosphere, and central location. Wedgwood sits within easy driving distance of Matthews Beach Park, Warren G. Magnuson Park, Maple Leaf Reservoir Park, and Ravenna Park. Major employers like the University of Washington, Seattle Children’s Hospital, and the University of Washington Medical Center are just a short commute as well.
