Private and serene are the words that come to mind when staying at this beautiful Auburn property! Boasting a central location, this home truly provides easy and quick access to popular Seattle attractions, great restaurants and shops, and the scenic Puget Sound!

Spend a day at Redondo Beach, located only 15 minutes away from the property! Sunbathe next to the cool water, comb the beach for the perfect seashell, or walk the wooden boardwalk to take in the scenery. Other outdoor destinations close by include Saltwater State Park, Emerald Down Racetrack, and several golf courses such as Riverbend Golf Complex!

Venture 25 minutes north to Seattle for a full day of sightseeing! First, visit the Seattle Aquarium to meet exotic and local sea life. Afterwards, stroll through the Waterfront Park until you reach the Seattle Great Wheel with climate-controlled gondolas that offer a bird's-eye-view of the city. Travel even higher on the iconic 605-foot Space Needle!

If you visit on a Saturday, make sure to stop by the Pike Place Market, one of the oldest continually operated farmer's market in the United States! Buy fresh produce, seafood, and crafts from local farmers and boutique owner-operated stores.

Additional attractions include the Seattle Art Museum, Museum of Pop Culture, and the Paramount Theatre, where big-name shows play regularly. Just 4 miles away from the home is Virginia Mason Athletic Center, home of the Seattle Seahawks training center and headquarters!

In the evening, relish a superb meal out in Seattle at restaurants like Elliott's Oyster House or The London Plane. Feast closer to home on Washington staples at Duke's Seafood and Chowder!

Great stay at this huge & beautiful home
Stayed here with family, grandparents, aunties and uncles and cousins over winter holidays. The mansion was just like its pictures on Vrbo, very clean. We enjoyed a comfortable stay with lots of convos in comfy living room and enjoyed many meals with many relatives at the long dining table. Kids enjoyed a muddy romp and exploration on the farm fields on the property Property mgrs were very available and helpful, when I had a few ?s Recommend if you’re traveling with a crowd!

We Had A Wonderful Time!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the gorgeous house and impeccably groomed gardens. It was such a lovely way to relax and unwind. We had a chance to meet the owners: Mike and Virginia and they are lovely hosts.

8/10 Good

Fit the bill
Nice old home, beds good, was perfect for the family get together. With an old home like this, it requires a lot of maintenance, the only reason for not giving 5 was related to the upkeep, primarily doors and locks. - bathroom doors would not stay shut/lock and the front door handle/lock was in terrible shape. Woke up to front door open one morning. The back door did not lock. The shower handle on the shared shower came off on the first turn, but I fixed it with a screwdriver. The sink nobs were loose in one bathroom. But I hand tightens them. All minor issues with a little elbow grease easily fixed. Otherwise, great property, and space for what our group of 8 needed.

Sanders Estate
My 4th time at Sanders Estate. Great experience as always. All family and friends enjoyed their stay and the tranquil park like setting. Peaceful and quiet yet only 30 minutes from Seattle or Bellevue and 10 minutes from major grocery stores and shops at the Kent station mall. I highly recommend this place for a family or friends getaway or reunion.
