Exploring Cordillera Group: Kirkland’s Multi-zoned Street of Dreams
In the vibrant city of Kirkland, the real estate landscape is evolving, and one company leading the charge is the Cordillera Group. Known for their diverse range of projects and a commitment to community, the Cordillera Group is making significant strides in residential construction and development. In a recent discussion, Michael Eney, the CFO, and his partner Andy Marshall, the residential construction principal, shared insights into their mission and the unique approach that distinguishes them from other builders in the area.
A Local Focus with Diverse Projects
Cordillera Group is not just a home builder; they are a Kirkland-based developer with a diverse portfolio that spans various project types. From condominium buildings to single-family tear-downs and townhomes, their aim is to capitalize on the highest and best use of land in Kirkland and the greater Puget Sound area.
Currently, they are involved in exciting developments, including a master-planned community in Port Orchard that will encompass 3,000 lots, including townhomes, commercial spaces, and even a school and grocery store—essentially a complete neighborhood on a golf course!
One of their notable achievements is the construction of the first condominium building in Kirkland since 2006—a significant milestone for the community.
Rooted in Relationships and Community
What sets the Cordillera Group apart? For them, it’s all about relationships. The team has worked with many of the same subcontractors for nearly two decades, fostering a collaborative environment that results in quality construction. Their philosophy is simple: “We build homes that we would want to live in.” This personal touch extends beyond the construction process; it’s about creating homes where neighbors can cultivate lasting connections.
Michael emphasized that community ties are essential to their identity. Whether bumping into a buyer at the grocery store or cheering for kids on the same little league team, it's this community engagement that enhances their work and ensures that every project they undertake is built with care and consideration. TCG leadership is at the center of Construction for Change, whose mission is to support better access to social infrastructure.

This stretch has become a mini “street of dreams,” showcasing a blend of residential living options that cater to the community’s varying needs.
The Meaning Behind the Name
A common query arises: What does Cordillera mean? The term references the Cordillera Ice Sheet, a historic natural formation that played a crucial role in shaping the Puget Sound and surrounding mountain ranges, including the Cascades and the Olympics. As a developer that follows in this natural legacy, the Cordillera Group aims to leave its mark by building thoughtfully designed communities.
