Wing Point

Welcome to Wing Point

Wing Point is a coastal/peninsular neighborhood on Bainbridge Island, located along the water on the island’s eastern side. It borders or is adjacent to other neighborhoods like Yeomalt Point and Ferncliff, and offers a more private, quiet residential setting compared to the busier downtown core.

Wing Point tends to attract residents who appreciate a blend of waterfront access or proximity + a more secluded, peaceful environment. Homes in Wing Point range from modest older dwellings to larger, upscale waterfront properties — giving a variety of housing styles for different preferences.

🌿 Neighborhood Character & Lifestyle

  • 🌲 Wooded, Coastal & Residential Feel — Wing Point offers a semi-secluded, tree-lined, coastal-edge living environment. The mixture of forested lots and shoreline properties gives a balance of privacy and natural beauty.

  • 🚶‍♂️ Laid-back Lifestyle, Within Reach of Conveniences — While Wing Point is more tranquil than downtown, the heart of the island (shops, ferry, amenities) remains accessible — making the neighborhood a good option for those seeking calm without total isolation.

  • 🛶 Water & Nature-oriented Living — For residents with the right proximity, access to water, waterfront views or the possibility of boating/kayaking can be part of everyday life — adding to the appeal of a coastal island neighborhood.

  • 🏡 Diverse Housing — From Cottages to Waterfront Homes — Wing Point doesn’t cater to a single housing style; long-time islanders, newcomers, and those seeking luxury waterfront homes may all find something that fits in the neighborhood.

Overall, Wing Point represents a quieter, more residential island lifestyle — ideal for people who want a balance between nature, water, and community, without the density of a downtown center.

📍 Points of Interest & Local Amenities Near Wing Point

Because Wing Point is primarily residential and low-density, its “points of interest” are often natural and neighborhood-adjacent — but there are a few notable amenities and nearby conveniences that make it appealing:

  • 🌊 Shoreline & Waterfront Access / Views — Many properties in or near Wing Point offer views or easy access to the water (Puget Sound), making for peaceful waterfront living, water recreation, or scenic vistas.

  • 🏞 Proximity to Parks & Island Nature — Residents benefit from Bainbridge Island’s overall natural scenery — forests, shorelines, and island-wide trails/green spaces — giving a sense of openness and connection to nature.

  • 🛍️ Convenient Access to Downtown (Winslow) — Even though Wing Point is more secluded, the island’s main commercial, retail, dining, arts, and ferry hub is reachable within a reasonable drive/bike ride, giving a balance between tranquility and convenience.

  • 🚗 Easy Commuting + Access to Services — Living in Wing Point doesn’t mean giving up access to essential services (shopping, health, education) — thanks to the small-island size and good connectivity to the rest of Bainbridge.

Because Wing Point sits on an island with a well-developed communal infrastructure, residents essentially enjoy the “quiet island home + access to island-wide amenities” combo.

🏫 Schools & Education (Serving Wing Point Residents)

Residents of Wing Point — like the rest of Bainbridge Island — fall under the umbrella of the Bainbridge Island School District (BISD). Public schooling options for families in Wing Point generally include:

  • Ordway Elementary School — serving early grades (elementary).

  • Sonoji Sakai Intermediate School — for intermediate grade levels.

  • Woodward Middle School — serving middle school students.

  • Bainbridge High School — the main public high school on the island.

For families seeking alternatives (private or specialized schooling), Bainbridge Island also offers supplementary and private educational options, giving flexibility for different family needs.

🌟 What Makes Wing Point Stand Out

  • Wing Point offers a peaceful, natural, water-adjacent lifestyle that combines privacy and island charm — ideal for those who want to live subtly close to nature.

  • Flexibility in housing — from modest cottages to waterfront homes — gives a broad appeal: singles, couples, retirees, families.

  • Best of both worlds — you get tranquility and a sense of retreat, while still having access to the social, cultural, shopping, and transit amenities of the island.

  • A close-to-nature, laid-back island pace — life here tends to be slower, quieter, and more reflective than busier urban or downtown districts; good for people valuing calm and community over hustle.
