Kingston on the map.
Ferry village on Apple Tree Cove, 30 minutes to Edmonds.
Positioning
A sense of place.
Kingston sits where Appletree Cove meets the Edmonds ferry route, giving the town a rare blend of maritime rhythm and small-town convenience. The center is compact and walkable, with a working marina, waterfront parks, neighborhood streets climbing into wooded hills, and easy access to trails, beaches, and year-round ferry service. For buyers, the appeal is the combination of daily practicality and weekend-style recreation: launch a boat, catch a concert, or step onto a ferry without leaving town.

Commute & access
Getting around.
Kingston’s primary ferry connection is the Washington State Ferries Kingston–Edmonds route; WSF describes the crossing as about 21 minutes, and Kingston is also served by Kitsap Transit’s Kingston Fast Ferry to downtown Seattle with an approximately 40-minute crossing and passenger-only boarding. For car travel, Kingston is typically used as a drive-to-terminal commute hub; exact drive times vary by destination and traffic, but Seattle is commonly reached by ferry-plus-transit or by driving south via Bainbridge/Poulsbo routes, Tacoma by Highway 3 / south Kitsap routes, and Edmonds by the direct WSF car ferry. Walk-on is generally the most predictable option on both ferry services; vehicle travelers should budget queue time, especially on Fridays, weekends, and holiday peaks.
