Whether you’re drawn to the historic downtown lined with antique shops and cozy cafés or dreaming of sprawling acreage properties, Snohomish offers something truly special.

A Town with Character and Heart
Downtown Snohomish feels like stepping back in time — full of boutiques, bakeries, and local favorites like Snohomish Pie Company (a favorite of mine too), a must-stop for anyone craving fresh, handmade pie. You’ll find locals strolling the sidewalks, browsing antique stores, and enjoying riverfront views that make this one of the most photographed small towns in Washington.

Lifestyle and Living Options
Just beyond the charming downtown, Snohomish opens up to rolling hills, equestrian properties, and hobby farms that define the area’s rural appeal. For those seeking space to breathe — and maybe keep a few animals — this is the place.

From morning coffee on First Street to an afternoon walk along the Centennial Trail, there’s no shortage of local flavor. You can catch an event at Harvey Airfield, visit a nearby winery, or spend the day exploring Snohomish’s many antique markets. Each season brings its own rhythm — from summer river floats to the fall pumpkin patches that attract visitors from all over the region.
