Homes in this sweet pocket of Honey Creek don't come around often, and the people who land here tend to stay put. One visit and you'll see why. Tucked in the coveted Issaquah School District, this gem features a gorgeously remodeled kitchen with stainless steel appliances and gas stove, updated bathrooms with heated floors, plus big-ticket updates already done: newer roof, gutters, and updated pipes throughout. Lovingly maintained and pre-inspected, so you can move in and move on with life. Room to spread out and room for your toys: a large bonus room, excellent storage, and extra off-street parking for the boat, RV, or additional cars. Out back, the fully fenced, beautifully terraced yard delivers with a fire pit, and patio built for long summer evenings. Minutes to trailheads, schools, grocery stores, and Issaquah's fantastic shops and restaurants, with easy commutes to Bellevue, Renton, Kent, Seattle, and the airport. Neighborhoods like this hold their value for a reason. Come see what makes Honey Creek home.
Honey Creek sits on the east side of the Renton Highlands, where the plateau breaks into a forested ravine and the creek runs down toward May Creek and Lake Washington. It's one of those pockets that got built once, in the late '50s and early '60s, on lots that would never be platted that size today. Mature trees, wide setbacks, real yards.
The greenbelt is the draw. Honey Creek Open Space runs right through the neighborhood with a wooded trail and bridges over the water, and Cougar Mountain's trail network is a short drive northeast. Down the hill, Gene Coulon Beach Park puts 5,400 feet of Lake Washington shoreline, a boat launch, and a pier within a few minutes of the front door.
Everything else is close without being on top of you. The Landing covers groceries, big-box, and a movie theater. Maplewood Golf Course is on the Cedar River. I-405 is minutes away, with Bellevue and Boeing Renton both an easy commute and I-90 accessible via Coal Creek Parkway.
Homes here don't come up often. People buy and stay.

I grew up mainly in Madison, WI and am a strong supporter of social justice and community building. I went to undergrad at a Quaker College in Indiana and learned even greater respect for varied viewpoints and team work.
I moved to Seattle at the beginning of 2010 after graduate school and moved to the Newcastle area in 2013. I love the Pacific Northwest and am proud to call it my home. I hold a Bachelor’s Degree in Japanese Studies and a Masters of Science in Occupational Therapy from University of Wisconsin.
When I’m not selling Real Estate, you can find me spending time with my family, hiking, playing Ultimate Frisbee, exploring town, enjoying good food, reading books, or playing board games with my family and friends.

Keeping current matters to how well I can serve clients; to this end, I engage with various networks, classes, & conferences to best serve my clients.

Over the course of 25 years as a film and television composer, I developed an investment real estate portfolio and became increasingly fascinated by the value of homeownership, property investment, and architecture. That curiosity eventually grew into a new calling, and eventually I made the decision to transition fully into real estate.
While music will always hold a special place in my heart, I now pour my creative energy into helping people navigate what is often one of life's most meaningful milestones. It's an honor to be a part of such transformative moments, and I now bring that same dedication and passion that defined my music career to every real estate transaction.

Selling a family member's home was a big responsibility, especially since it required extensive renovations before it could be listed. From the very beginning, Elly's knowledge, organization, and genuine care made what could have been an overwhelming process feel remarkably manageable.Elly's understanding of the local housing market was exceptional. She generously shared market data and took the time to explain current trends, helping me make decisions about pricing, timing, and the work that would provide the greatest return. I felt confident that my decisions were based on sound information rather than guesswork.Elly has an impressive network of trusted local resources, including contractors, repair professionals, cleaning services, inspectors, and other vendors. She coordinated every step of a complex renovation, scheduling and supervising the work on a very tight timeline to ensure everything stayed on track. Her attention to detail, communication, and follow-through made the entire process surprisingly stress-free.Throughout the experience, Elly treated both the home and my family's situation with care and respect. She patiently listened, answered every question, addressed every concern. I could not ask for a more supportive "partner". I am deeply grateful for her expertise, dedication, and compassionate guidance. I recommend Elly without hesitation to anyone looking for an outstanding real estate professional.
-Kay Beisse
It has been such a pleasure to work with Elly and Jen. I listed my home in what could be said not the best environment to sell. They walked me through the process and were there to address any of my needs. The marketing plan was excellent and the supporting materials were exceptional. For me working with a realtor that communicates openly and offer great advice. With that said the house sold and even though there was a minor hiccup with the buyers leader, Elly and Jen kept me informed of every detail. I would definitely use Elly and Jenn on my next real estate deal.
-Joy B
Elly helped my partner and I purchase our first home in Seattle and she was fantastic! We really appreciated her communication style, promptness, clarity, and willingness to answer any/all questions we had and to go the extra mile. Elly was a rockstar especially through our offer and closing process, and we'd highly recommend her to first-time and experienced buyers!
-Andrew Bazan
We had the privilege of working with Elly to find the perfect home for us as first-time buyers! In addition to being extremely organized and professional, she worked so well with all of our family dynamics (not an easy feat!) Elly has been a wonderful friend and support for us throughout the whole process. Thank you Elly!
-Alexa Philbeck
My husband and I loved working with Elly. As first-time homebuyers, the whole process was daunting, but Elly was both pro-active and responsive throughout the whole process. She took time to get to know us and what we were hoping to find, and she was thorough, authentic, and supportive from the moment we starting working with her all the way past closing. 10/10 recommend!
-Sarah Miller
We had the pleasure of working with Elly to purchase our first home in the fall of 2025. She was fantastic! She was proactive in helping us identify homes that fit our criteria (something that was a great improvement on previous agents we worked with), was very accommodating to our schedule, and she jumped into immediate action whenever there were any hiccups during the process. She has stayed engaged with us post-closing, using her knowledge and experience to help us navigate all the little things that continue to crop up as we settle into the new place. We could not endorse her more enthusiastically!
-Will Brechter
Elly was a wonderful realtor and we highly recommend her! As first time homebuyers, we didn't know much about the process, and Elly always explained things step by step. She was very available and generous with her time, and was wonderful at working around our schedules. She did video tours for us to help us decide if we wanted to look at a place. She did a great job of negotiating for us and we love our new condo!
-Laura Marx
Elly is so professional and a pleasure to work with.I’ve recently submitted an offer for a listing that she had available and even though we did not get the property, we were able to work out a backup offer that she championed with her Sellers. I really appreciate her going the extra mile to take care of everyone and make sure that we all felt part of the process.Thank you, Elly!
-Robert Johnson
Elly is an outstanding real estate agent. She not only helped me find my first house, but she went above and beyond to teach me what to look for in houses that could be issues later and helped me with what questions to ask. I feel more informed and confident in the home buying process. She’s also very pleasant to work with and willing to travel to multiple locations to find the right home.
-Lindsey Stecker
We had a fantastic experience working with Elly to sell our townhouse in Ballard. She helped us close the sale within just one week! Elly is extremely detail-oriented — from recommending small fixes to optimizing lighting and staging, she made sure everything was ready for a successful listing. She’s also very responsive and communicates clearly every step of the way. Her service brings tremendous value, and we couldn’t be happier with the outcome. Highly recommend working with her!
-Dong Wang
Elly McKenzie is a fantastic agent. She helped me go from, "I just had this crazy idea that maybe my family should move to Capitol Hill," to being under contract on a new-build townhouse in three weeks! Elly is organized, responsive, has great attention to detail, and goes above and beyond the call of duty. She is very perceptive, quickly figuring out what I liked/disliked and wanted/needed in a home. When the townhouse I liked wasn't quite right, she helped me negotiate an amazing deal that included home customization and upgrades. Elly did a great job communicating with me and the builder throughout a whirlwind timeline, as we closed in 45 days even with tons of work being done on our new home.Little did I know that Elly is even more impressive as a seller's agent! She worked so hard to sell my house, often going way above and beyond. We toured houses in the neighborhood together several times, so that she could get a sense of the market and help me understand both how to set my house apart and how to price it appropriately. I decided to do a lot of work on my house to maximize our sale price. Elly and her partner worked tirelessly to help me find and coordinate contractors, taking over the tasks I wasn't up for doing myself. Once we hit the market they did a fabulous job marketing my house, including a video tour for social media, ads, lots of open houses, and more. I felt completely supported through the entire process and am confident we got the highest possible price in a tricky market.I wholeheartedly recommend Elly if you're looking for a real estate agent! She truly is a unicorn of an agent.
-Lauren Hartzell Nichols
Can't say enough great things about Elly. From start to finish, she made the process of selling our home stress-free, which was no easy feat as we were doing the buying/selling thing at the same time.She definitely understands the market (refers to herself as a real estate nerd, in fact), and what sets her apart is her genuine care and attention to detail.I felt like she was truly invested in the process and in us, and I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking to sell or buy a home.
-Kara Killough
Elly recently helped us sell our house in record time in a slow market. Part of it was luck - but Elly deserves a lot of credit for making sure we were well prepared. She got us in touch with great contractors, made sure we were well-informed and had documentation ready for the buyers (so we could all make decisions quickly), and went the extra mile to take care of our needs - from grabbing us extra screws and boxes to putting out the trash cans when we weren’t around. I highly recommend Elly for anyone looking to sell their home.

We had a fantastic experience with Josh who helped us find the perfect home! He is knowledgeable about the Seattle market and in particular with respect to mid century modern homes, which is what we were looking for. Not only is he professional and responsive, he is also a caring and kind individual and fun to work with.
-Vickie Feeman
When I decided to sell my childhood home, I knew I needed a listing broker who could be more than just a real estate expert. I was looking for someone who understood architecture, listened carefully, and could see the bigger picture…someone who could read the market, time it right, and help achieve a result that would make my parents proud as we transitioned our family’s beloved home to its next steward. Josh turned out to be exactly that person. As a midcentury enthusiast himself, he understood that this was more than just a house and recognized its potential to attract real attention with the right strategy. From the moment the listing went live, activity was off the charts. Features in Dwell and Zillow Gone Wild fueled the excitement, and we ultimately received multiple offers on the review date, negotiating a price and terms that exceeded my expectations. To say that Josh made a tangible and meaningfully difference in my life by delivering the results i needed philosophically, financially and emotionally in this life changing event-- would be an understatement. Oh, and also one of the hardest working and nicest humans i have met .
-Tom Gorai
Josh did a fantastic job! Very helpful through the entire process and attentive to the unique needs of my family. If I ever need to relocate again, I'll know exactly who to reach out to.
-Jack Biggar
Josh was very helpful with the sale of the duplex. He was knowledgeable about the market and accurate with the pricing. His judgements about reasonable updating insured the duplex sold in a timely manner. We will use Josh again for our next purchase or sale.
-Andrea Running
I had the pleasure of working with Josh Myers as my realtor this past spring. For several years, I had been interested in homeownership, but the entire process of purchasing a home seemed daunting, and I had assumed it would remain impossible for me as a public school teacher. When I decided to start working with him, he shed so much light on the process that I felt more and more confident every step of the way.I really appreciated Josh's practical, no-pressure approach to working together. He explained every single step of what can be a very confusing world of real estate jargon, paperwork, and procedures, in clear, easy to understand language. He also assured me that no question was a bad question, and was available to answer or re-explain parts of the process anytime I needed something clarified. One other quality I really appreciate about Josh is his humility in his profession- he emphasized that his professional mentors could have more insight or experience regarding any given issue with a house, seller, etc. and would consult with them as needed. This made me feel very comfortable and cared for as a client and that I had a whole team who was prioritizing my needs.Josh's laid back demeanor and easygoing friendliness made the entire process of attending open houses, seeing properties, engaging with a mortgage lender, and taking the steps to closing on my house very manageable and truly fun. As a fellow resident of Seattle's south end, I valued Josh's knowledge of the area and its history. He always knew whom to consult for more detailed info about a property. Having Josh in my corner was paramount to the success I found in purchasing my home in the Rainier Beach neighborhood, and I could not be happier. I recommend Josh with the highest regard. Thank you Josh!
