Building Profile
Pinnacle at Alki is a boutique 11-unit condominium at 1118 Alki Ave SW in West Seattle, completed in 2020. Positioned directly on the Alki Beach corridor, the building offers new-construction finishes and modern construction standards in one of Seattle's most sought-after beachfront locations — just steps from Alki Beach Park and the Alki Path walking and cycling trail.
With only 11 residences, Pinnacle at Alki occupies a distinctive niche in the West Seattle condo market: newer than Alki Bonair (1976), Bay Villa (1997), and Alki Shores (1986), but more intimate than Infinity Shore Club's 37 units or the resort-scale amenity package. The building's scale creates a tight-knit ownership environment where owner-occupancy is typically high and HOA governance is direct and responsive.
Units facing east across Elliott Bay offer the defining view of the Alki Beach experience — the Downtown Seattle skyline rising across the water, cargo ships and ferries crossing Puget Sound, and sunrises over the Cascades. The Alki Beach setting combined with modern 2020 construction standards positions Pinnacle at Alki as one of the more compelling boutique condo opportunities on the beach. Contact Jeff Reynolds for current listings, HOA data, and a full Alki buyer analysis.

Due Diligence
Key factors for buyers evaluating Pinnacle at Alki. Jeff Reynolds reviews each of these in every West Seattle building consultation.
With only 11 units, Pinnacle at Alki has one of the smallest HOA sizes in the West Seattle registry. Small HOAs mean higher per-unit cost exposure for capital repairs and less reserve buffer than larger buildings. Request the full HOA financials, reserve study, and all meeting minutes before making an offer. Understanding the reserve fund trajectory in the first 5 years of operation is a first-order due diligence item here.
As a 2020 building, Pinnacle at Alki is entering the phase where original builder warranties on major systems are expiring. Confirm the status of any remaining builder warranties on envelope, mechanical, and structural elements. The reserve fund has only been building for 5 years — review the reserve study to understand the long-term funding trajectory and whether current contributions are adequate.
Units facing east across Elliott Bay toward the Downtown Seattle skyline command a view premium over non-view configurations. Confirm the exact floor, unit number, and window/balcony orientation before evaluating comparable sales. At a boutique 11-unit building, unit-specific positioning differences can meaningfully affect value. Jeff tracks Alki Beach view premiums across all buildings on the corridor.
Pinnacle at Alki is on the Alki Beach corridor, approximately 0.5 miles from the Seacrest Park water taxi terminal. The water taxi to Downtown Pier 50 runs approximately 12 minutes on weekday commute schedules. Confirm current water taxi schedules match your actual work hours before purchasing. Alki Beach is a summer-activity corridor — confirm the neighborhood's year-round character meets your lifestyle expectations.
Who Buys Here
Buyers who want Alki Beach access with modern 2020 construction finishes — and don't need the resort amenity package of Infinity Shore Club — find Pinnacle at Alki a compelling alternative. Eleven units means no crowds, a direct relationship with fellow owners, and a quieter HOA governance environment. A rare combination of new construction and beach-corridor boutique scale.
East-facing Alki Beach units offer the most dramatic urban view tableau in Seattle — the Downtown skyline, Elliott Bay, ferry crossings, and Cascade Mountain backdrop. Buyers who have toured Downtown towers and find the inward-facing city view less compelling than a water view often discover Alki Beach as a more dramatic and quieter alternative. Pinnacle's 2020 construction wraps this view in modern finishes.
The Alki Path is one of Seattle's premier walking and cycling corridors — a 2.5-mile paved path from the West Seattle water taxi terminal to Alki Point Lighthouse. Buyers who center their daily routine around outdoor movement find 1118 Alki Ave SW's immediate path access, beach proximity, and water taxi commute option an unmatched lifestyle package. Pinnacle's 2020 construction adds the practical finishes to match the lifestyle.

Buyer Questions
Your Agent
Jeff Reynolds has guided condo buyers across Seattle's neighborhoods for over 20 years, including the West Seattle Alki Beach corridor where boutique buildings like Pinnacle at Alki represent some of the most compelling new-construction value in the city.
At an 11-unit building, access matters. Pinnacle at Alki's small owner community means resale opportunities often circulate by word of mouth before hitting the MLS. Jeff maintains direct relationships with owners at West Seattle's smallest buildings — giving buyer clients genuine first-look access when units become available.
West Seattle HOA due diligence differs from Downtown high-rises. Small building reserve funds, warranty expiration timelines, and infrastructure age require a different evaluation framework. Jeff applies a small-building due diligence protocol to every Pinnacle at Alki inquiry.
