Lovingly Updated Detached Cottage In Walkable West Seattle Neighborhood

** MUST LOVE DOGS **

Because of its location in our backyard, this listing is "hosted" by our sweet pup, Nala. Nala is a husky mix that came to our family from the Pierce County Humane Society in February 2021. As you'll see if you visit, digging holes in the backyard is one of her favorite pastimes!

Our 110-year old backyard cottage has been lovingly updated in recent years.

Although you may feel like you’re worlds away from it all when tucked inside, you will actually be just 2-1/2 blocks from the heart of of West Seattle.

Pre-war charm meets modern convenience:

Soak in the original claw-foot tub or enjoy a steaming shower with the new on-demand hot water system.

Snuggle up with your loved one in the comfortable queen-sized bed.

Enjoy your morning coffee in the sun-drenched dining nook, or walk just a few blocks to C&P coffee - a local favorite.

Whip up gourmet meals in the large kitchen with new gas range.

Stay connected with high speed WiFi and lounge in front of the cable TV in your down time.

The Northern Lights Cottage is the backyard cottage on this property. Easy on-street parking on 42nd Ave SW (very quiet and almost always possible to find a spot right in front of the house, one parking permit provided).

Our neighborhood, West Seattle is also home to Seattle’s finest waterfront areas: Alki Beach and Lincoln Park. Alki provides summer fun and excellent views of downtown; Lincoln Park is great for a hike in the woods or a dip in the saltwater swimming pool. We recommend riding the Elliot Bay Water Taxi from Seacrest Pier to downtown Seattle.
