About this property
Spacious 900 sq ft, 1-bedroom apartment, 10 minutes drive to Seattle Waterfront.
Step into your cozy Seattle retreat through a private entrance from the spacious patio. With easy keyless entry, you’ll be delighted (just like so many guests before you!) to discover a MIL apartment with full-height ceilings and a bright, open feel.
6 Steps down are required to enter apartment entry level.
Located just a short walk from Historic Downtown Ballard, you'll be close to amazing coffee shops, local boutiques, live music venues, restaurants, bars, and the best Sunday Farmers Market in the city!
Want nature? The Ballard Locks and Golden Gardens Beach—one of Seattle’s only sandy beaches—are just blocks away and perfect for catching a sunset.
Living Area
After a day of exploring, kick back in the comfy living room seating and catch your favorite shows, movies, or sports on the 43" Hisense Smart TV (with swivel mount for perfect viewing). You’ll have access to many cable channels, including sports, news and local TV, and can log into your own streaming apps too.
Fully Equipped Kitchen
Get creative in the fully stocked kitchen, complete with all major appliances: refrigerator, stove/oven, microwave, and dishwasher. There’s generous prep space on the butcher-block countertops, and you’ll find all the essentials for cooking and serving your favorite meals—including:
Kitchen Aid 10 cup coffee machine or French press
Regular and Decaf coffee provided, teas, sugar, honey and creamer.
Pots, pans, and bakeware, dish and glassware sets x8, flatware, utensils, and serving tools.
Fun extras like a Magic Bullet blender, salad spinner, wok, springform cake pan, muffin tray, ginger grater, and garlic press
Olive oil and variety of spices including salt and pepper
Enjoy meals at the charming dining table for four, or sip your morning coffee in the kitchen coffee nook for two.
Sleep Soundly
The Primary Bedroom features a plush queen-size pillow-top mattress with soft organic cotton and linen bedding—perfect for snuggling in. Bedside tables with adjustable sconces make nighttime reading a breeze. Convenient USB plug in as well.
Wind down with your favorite shows on the 32" LG Smart TV, and store your belongings easily in the dresser, closet, and luggage rack.
Need extra sleeping space? The queen-size fold-out sofa bed in the living room features an adjustable headboard, great for lounging or watching TV in bed.
Remote Work & More
If you need to do some work during your stay, there's a dedicated workspace with a desk and chair in the living room—fast and reliable Xfinity Wi-Fi at 600 Mbps keeps everything running smoothly.
Private Patio
Your own little outdoor oasis! The private patio features a comfy place for two with cushioned rattan swivel chairs and small table, ideal for enjoying a drink, a snack, or a good book while surrounded by greenery and fresh air.

Why they chose this property
We love Ballard for it proximity to Down town Seattle and all the great activities it offers. The new waterfront park added to Seattle Pike Place market with new aquarium addition is our favorite place to spend an afternoon sight seeing, eating great seafood and enjoying the water and mountain view. From there you can take a fun ride in the Seattle great wheel, walk to historic Pioneer Square or visit the Iconic Seattle Space needle.
Ballard itself offers access to Golden Gardens beach or Discovery Park for a fun local hike, both about a 10 minute drive from the apartment, perfect for watching our local wildlife and watching epic sunsets.
An easy 10 minute walk will lead you to the heart of Historic downtown Ballard filled with great restaurants, coffee shops, cocktail bars, shopping, ice cream shops, farmers market, local breweries and more. Enjoy a new movie release at the Majestic Bay theater or visit the Nordic Heritage Museum and learn about the history of this once Scandinavian community. All within walking distance to the home, No car needed.
