Wknd in Seattle

Lovely quiet residential area near green spaces, waterfront, and university. Well stocked kitchen, tons of windows that open, lovely gardens and seating out back, and an eclectic collection of books. So nice to have three bathrooms. Lots of square footage for everyone to spread out. Zane was quick to respond to all texts. Great to be able to park right by the house. Safe. Will come back.

Great house in a great location.

Beautiful home with everything you need for a comfortable stay. The yard is lovely, with different areas for socializing, sunning, and reading. Zane quickly responds to questions. We would definitely stay here again.

This is a nice, older home with a very nice backyard. Bedrooms were large with nice walk in bathrooms. Yard had optimal seating, but cobwebs and leaves could’ve been cleaned off furniture beforehand.Home was in older condition, with small tv room and no central air. We were disappointed that there wasn’t central air as advertised, there was only an AC unit in two of the bedrooms. It got pretty warm, even with keeping the shades drawn. Home didn’t seem super clean either- there was spare change on the floor of the bedroom and dirt in the shower.Overall a nice home, but have a few areas of opportunity.

Why they chose this property

Montlake is a centrally located Seattle neighborhood that is quiet, walkable, and known for its historic charm. It has excellent proximity to the University of Washington, parks, and great local eateries and businesses. A short walk to the Montlake cut and Husky Stadium, two of the greatest settings in college sports. Along with two great parks, Interlaken Park, across the street, and the magnificent Arboretum down the street. Great for exploring all that Seattle has to offer and longer trips beyond the city in the Puget Sound region.
