About this property
Vintage Westlake Hideaway w/patio & Lake Views!
Vintage Seattle gem centrally located to all the hottest neighborhoods. Our house, built in 1924, is situated on a quiet street in Westlake walkable to Downtown, Fremont, and Queen Anne and a quick ride to Ballard, Capitol Hill, and University. Three public transit lines pass right by to take you anywhere you want to go. There's an expansive shared deck great for grilling and lounging outside. This is the perfect place to relax as you explore all that Seattle has to offer.
The entrance is located at the back of the house off of the deck. Walk down the driveway to the left and you'll see the deck on your right. The deck has a peek-a-boo view of the lake. You'll be located in a renovated basement of a tri-unit building. We live right above and it's an old house, so you will likely hear us and our dog, Gracie, walking around at some point.
Westlake is Seattle's smallest neighborhood located on the western shore of Lake Union. Our house is located on a quiet street off of Dexter Avenue and there are two sets of stairs that will lead you down to Westlake Avenue and the lakefront. Street parking is free and usually pretty easy to find within two blocks of the house. Watch out for fire hydrants which are painted green and often easy to miss.
If you need anything, please let me know.
Westlake is Seattle's smallest neighborhood located on the western shore of Lake Union. Our house is located on a quiet street off of Dexter Avenue and there are two sets of stairs that will lead you down to Westlake Avenue and the lakefront. Just steps away on Dexter you can find several local businesses. Lyon's Grocery is an excellent convenience store with delicious deli sandwiches. If you like boba, Tea King is a great option. The Toledo is a unique bar that also serves amazing flatbreads. And of course there's the Swedish Club which hosts various events throughout the week. If you enjoy kayaking or stand up paddle boarding, I would recommend the Northwest Outdoor Center.
Three public transit lines, 40, 62, and RapidRide E line, have stations on Westlake, Dexter, and Aurora respectively. If you take public transportation, I would recommend getting the Transit Go app for tickets and use your phone's mapping app to find the best routes. If you enjoy walking (or biking), I would recommend taking a walk along the Cheshiahud trail along Lake Union toward Fremont or South Lake Union (SLU). Both are just a mile away via the trail. To get to Pike Place Market, walk to SLU and then south along Westlake Ave which has a lot of shopping and dining options. That will get you to Westlake Center at which point you can take a right on Pine street and the market will be straight ahead. Total walk to the market is about 2 miles.
