About this property
Alchemy Design Build brings design-forward cottage living to Columbia City—smart, stylish, and refreshingly intentional. Eight standalone homes deliver the feel of a single-family residence without the drag of high-maintenance ownership or rigid HOA oversight. Open main level connects a streamlined kitchen, dining, and living areas built for actual use—weeknight dinners, easy hosting, or a quiet reset. Engineered hardwoods run throughout—no carpet, no LVP, no apologies. Upstairs, two bedrooms offer calm separation with a polished bath featuring dual sinks, heated floors, and thoughtful storage. Outdoor space is private, fenced, and ready for pets, play, or a future shed. Select homes have roof decks capturing Lake Washington, Mt. Baker, and Cascade views, putting you front row for Blue Angels season. Set on a quiet residential street in coveted Columbia City, a vibrant & diverse neighborhood with independent shops & restaurants where farmer’s markets & festivals cement the tight knit community. Hop a train to the game, downtown or the airport– commuting is a breeze. For those who prefer great design and a vibrant neighborhood over extra rooms they’ll never use. Small House. Big Life.
