About this property
Bright Garden Level Ballard Abode; 86 Walk Score!
Welcome to your home away from home.
Spacious one bedroom basement apartment located in the quaint, tree-lined Seattle neighborhood of Ballard. Foodie destination, with tons of breweries.
It is a lovely place to stay if you want to be close enough to downtown to enjoy the tourist attractions of Seattle and other neighborhoods, but staying like a local. The bedroom has a comfy memory foam queen bed and vanity with two convenient sinks.
Walk a block to local neighborhood restaurants and coffee, and minutes to downtown Ballard, Phinney Ridge, Greenlake, Fremont, and Wallingford for more amazing restaurants.

Things to note:
Ceiling height:
The ceilings are a bit low, just something to be aware of if you are on the taller side.
Floor:
As is common in basement units, the floor may be cold for some.
Noise:
Neighborhood is very quiet with low traffic, there is an upstairs unit, so you will hear walking, talking, tv noises.
Smoke detectors:
The smoke alarms are connected throughout the whole house, so if one goes off the whole house will beep, including the unit above.

About the host
Hosted by Tony Scartozzi

I’m a longtime Seattle resident who takes pride in creating inviting, well-designed spaces for people to enjoy. Hosting allows me to combine my love of hospitality and the Pacific Northwest in helping guests feel at home while experiencing the best of the city. Whether you’re visiting for a weekend getaway or a longer stay, I strive to make your experience seamless, comfortable, and memorable.
Why they chose this property
Ballard is one of Seattle’s most beloved neighborhoods. It has a rich Scandinavian heritage, vibrant food scene, charming boutiques, and incredible access to the outdoors. I love how you can spend the morning at the Ballard Farmers Market, enjoy fresh oysters by the water in the afternoon, and take a peaceful sunset stroll along the Locks or Golden Gardens. The property is also just two blocks from some of my favorite local spots: Delancey’s (amazing wood-fired pizza), Rosellini’s (incredible pastries), Tarasco (a cozy Mexican spot with karaoke), and Frankie & Jo’s (delicious plant-based ice cream). It’s a perfect mix of local flavor and laid-back charm.
What makes this property unique
This property is more than just a place to stay—it’s a thoughtfully curated retreat. Located on a quiet, tree-lined street, the home blends modern comfort with cozy touches that reflect the character of the neighborhood. From the relaxing outdoor seating area to the light-filled interior, every detail has been designed to feel welcoming and functional. And with Ballard’s best pizza, pastries, ice cream, and even karaoke just two blocks away, guests truly get to enjoy a local experience right outside the door.
