About the host
Hosted by Ron
As your host, Ron, I have decades of experience in hospitality, as the owner of one of Seattle's most beloved restaurants. I expanded into home renovation during 2010 as general contractor as my wife and I brought our 1967 home into the 21st century. We updated every inch of the home and are comfortable on the first floor of this comfortable three story home. We especially love the location, the feeling of being in the forest as we gaze out on the wooded garden and watch the birds.
Why they chose this property
We have lived in Northeast Seattle for years, but especially enjoy this home for its tranquil setting combined with easy access to everything we love. We can be in the Cascade or Olympic Mountains, on Puget Sound, or the San Juan Islands in no time. Our community is diverse, urban, literate and comfortable.
What makes this property unique
We adopted the Pacific Northwest as our home many years ago, have raised our children here, and are delighted to share our community with visitors. We trust you will leave Seattle as smitten as we are!
