Welcome to this spacious, stand-alone townhouse on the north slope of Queen Anne hill near SPU and Fremont.
Sunlight streams through dramatic windows, creating a warm and welcoming feel. Expansive territorial views from nearly every level, provides visual interest throughout the year. The main level is spacious and airy with beautiful hardwood floors, gas fireplace and custom wood and metal staircase. You will love the quality and design choices of this modern townhouse by high-end builder, MRN Homes.
Entertaining and every-day-living will be a joy in this open concept home. Chefs of all levels will appreciate the well-appointed kitchen complete with gas cooking, large prep island, and walk-in pantry.
The upper level features two bedrooms and laundry. The primary bedroom is highlighted by a wall of floor to ceiling windows with filtered Ship Canal views and attached spa-inspired 3/4 bath with walk-in closet. The second bedroom on this level would make a great guest area and features an attached full bath.
The spacious roof-top deck will be a favorite destination throughout the year, but especially enjoyable during our gorgeous summer months. 4th of July fireworks from Gas Works Park are easily viewed from this location.
The lower level bedroom with attached 3/4 bath would make a great home office or guest room. You will also love the safety and convenience of the attached one car garage with entry to the lower level.
The home inspection report, sewer scope and other home documents are available on the home’s website at the See Documents link below.
A few words from the homeowner
Let there be light. Large windows bring in so much light, even on the gloomiest of Seattle days. And for those brilliant summer days, enjoy top-down, bottom-up shades, including blackout shades in the guest bedrooms.
Our sanctuary in the city. Having a home in the city without any windows peaking straight into a neighbor’s house is an uncommon privilege and we appreciated the privacy. Rooms on each level made it possible for both of us to have private work from home setups for those endless Zoom meetings.
What about summer BBQs? The spacious roof deck is one of our favorite hangout spots in this home. 360 degree views, including the Cascades, Salmon Bay Canal, Gasworks Park, Ballard Bridge, and Fremont Bridge! Perfect at-home viewing of the fireworks across the city and Christmas Ship Festival through the canal.
Modern, elegant style. Unique Hickory hardwood floors, floating stairs, and high-end finishes throughout the house.
Cook and entertain? Check. We love to cook and hang out with friends, family and this kitchen is perfect for both, simultaneously. Only to be topped by the walk-in pantry – especially useful when stocking up for the pandemic or a snowy day.
Location, location, location! Equidistant from all the food and fun in Queen Anne, SLU, Ballard, and Fremont downtowns. We loved our scenic walks around the neighborhood and Discovery Park (just minutes away!). Proximity to the Burke Gillman and Ship Canal trails were especially appreciated for our trail walks and bike rides. If you’re commuting to work, there’s easy access to South Lake Union, downtown Seattle, or 520 to hop on over to the Eastside.
Okay you get it. This place is awesome! So why are we selling?
Now that we’ve expanded our family with both a pandemic baby and puppy, we are looking for more space and trading in our city-living for more suburban grounds.
Neighborhood favorites not to be missed.
We hope you enjoy them as much as we did!
- Byen Bakeri – neighborhood Nordic bakery. Best kringle in the city!
- Theo Chocolate – can’t walk within a few blocks of the factory without stopping in for a bar or two!
- Ship Canal Trail – lovely stroll along the water, where kayakers and hammockers intersect
- Storyville Coffee – best coffee in QA. Enjoy the cozy seating by the fireplace on cold rainy days
- How To Cook A Wolf – our favorite restaurant on the Avenue with delicious pastas and tasty Seawolf bread
- Grocery runs – PCC, Safeway, and Trader Joe’s are all minutes away!
- David Rogers Park – don’t miss the secret tennis courts
- SPU campus – a walk through the curated campus lawns is perfect to recharge the soul

Queen Anne is one of the most well-known and noteworthy neighborhoods in Seattle. The neighborhood is the site of the iconic Space Needle and some of the most magnificent views in Seattle.

The Queen Anne Library features tall ceilings with large leaded glass windows and hanging lamps giving the building a spacious feel. The historic branch is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and has been named a landmark building by Seattle’s Landmarks Preservation Board.
Close by is the Fremont neighborhood, humorously self-described as the Center of the Known Universe. This bohemian neighborhood has it all: public art, stellar views of Seattle’s skyline, delicious food, and quirky shops.
The Fremont Troll is a colossal statue, located on North 36th Street at Troll Avenue North, under the north end of the Aurora Bridge. A popular attraction for both neighbors and tourists, the troll is clutching an actual Volkswagen Beetle, as if it had just swiped it from the roadway above. The vehicle has a California license plate.
