Seabrook launches Makers Village on Washington Coast

Seabrook has released the first homes in Makers Village, a new coastal neighborhood north of town that centers on craft, community and walkability. The project adds more than 130 homes plus artisan space, retail and public gathering areas as Seabrook broadens its growth plan for the Washington Coast.

Why it matters: - Makers Village gives Seabrook a new neighborhood aimed at buyers who want new construction on the Washington coast. - The first homes start at $459,000, creating a lower entry point for a walkable coastal community. - The project adds housing, work space, gathering areas and local businesses in one place.

What happened: - Seabrook announced the first release of homes in Makers Village on July 14, 2026. - The neighborhood sits a quarter mile north of Seabrook along the Hidden Coast Scenic Byway. - Makers Village is designed as a walkable coastal neighborhood with its own main street, green space, parks, gathering areas, artisan studios and more than 130 homes. - Casey Roloff, Seabrook co-founder and CEO, said Makers Village builds on Seabrook’s walkable design principles, amenities and sense of connection while creating a character of its own.

The details: - The concept began more than a decade ago, when Seabrook co-founder Laura Roloff envisioned a place where creativity is practiced rather than simply displayed. - The neighborhood is intended to attract artisans, entrepreneurs and creative businesses, including glassblowers, jewelers, woodworkers, bakers and designers. - Makers Court will serve as the central gathering place for seasonal markets, live music, artisan demonstrations and community events. - Planned main street uses include a boutique hotel, movie theater, taproom, co-working space and dedicated artisan studios. - The architecture is Scandinavian-inspired with bold use of color. - Home designs include main-floor living, attached garages, flexible workspaces and practical layouts. - Seabrook says many of the homes are high-efficiency, modern designs. - The homes are aimed at young families, professionals, active adults and retirees. - Construction is already underway on a walking and biking path connecting Makers Village to Seabrook along State Route 109. - Long-term plans call for extending that corridor north to Pacific Beach.

Between the lines: - Makers Village broadens Seabrook from a beach town into a larger mixed-use destination with housing, hospitality, recreation and maker-oriented retail. - The focus on artisans and community events suggests Seabrook is betting that experience-driven amenities can help differentiate the development from typical coastal subdivisions. - The timing also fits a wider expansion push, with multiple new projects planned across the town.

What's next: - Seabrook expects the rest of its growth plan to move forward alongside Makers Village. - By the end of 2026, Seabrook plans to complete the Koko's Restaurant & Tequila Bar expansion, a new Spa Apothecary and two additional retail stores. - In 2027, Seabrook plans to add a medical clinic, an events demonstration kitchen classroom, an RV park, a new hardware store and an Artists/Chef-in-Residence program. - Future projects also include a luxury oceanfront hotel with branded residences, a par-3 golf course, a pickleball club with four indoor courts and four outdoor courts, a new activity center and a K-6 public school. - More information is available at Seabrook's website.

The bottom line: - Makers Village is Seabrook’s latest step in scaling a coastal community built around walkability, craftsmanship and year-round livability.
