This 800 square foot airy apartment is on the lower level of newly constructed 'Built Green' residence in a quiet neighborhood just north of downtown Seattle. Ballard has been called 'a city within a city,' and has much to offer. A thriving waterfront and happening restaurant and entertainment scene have made this Scandinavian enclave one of Seattle's funnest areas.
Here you'll find a diverse array of great restaurants, cute coffee shops, fun shopping, the best pastries in the city (at Cafe Besalu), a year round Farmers Market, and much more. You will be a short walk from Ballard's core and just down the hill from Phinney Ridge, where the Woodland Park Zoo is located. The University of Washington and downtown Seattle are about 6 miles away.
The unit is a purpose-built, comfortable living space with full size windows that bring in lots of sun and extra-height ceilings; it is not a remodel of a damp old basement. It is decorated in light colors, the bathroom is tiled and rest of the space was finished with bamboo floors. You'll enjoy an open and cheery dining room and living room, TV with cable, free Wi-Fi, a fully equipped kitchen, a private bathroom and a bedroom with a comfy queen sized bed. A double bed air mattress can be provided upon request for additional guests or children. The apartment is accessible via a ramp and the bathroom has a zero-entry shower.
Ballard is a great neighborhood for biking, just minutes to the Burke Gilman Trail. There are multiple parks and playgrounds sprinkled within walking distance for workouts, picnics or playtime for kids and adults alike. The Hiram M. Chittenden Locks (great for boat/yacht watching), Green Lake, and Golden Gardens Beach Park are all just minutes away.
The perfect place to stay for your visit to Seattle!

We designed and built our home and this apartment in 2007. We included the apartment so our families would have a cozy place to stay nearby on extended visits while feeling like they had a space of their own.
Why the Owner Chose Ballard
Ballard is just left of the center of the universe.
The Unique Benefits of this Apartment
Our home is a couple of blocks away from express bus lines that will take you to downtown Seattle (# 17 or 18). Other buses running nearby will take you to the University of Washington (# 44, 46 or 48).
