If you’re looking to buy a vacation home, or simply want to leave the rat race of the city altogether, you may want to explore Seabrook, a “compact, cottage-style village” along the Washington coast, 18 miles north of Ocean Shores. Seabrook developer Casey Roloff’s vision of this community is based on the concepts of the urban planning movement, New Urbanism. New Urbanism’s principles include the creation and promotion of compact, aesthetically-pleasing, mixed use communities with walkable distances to shops, workplaces, schools and parks.
