About this property

The “Queen of the Lake” is available for sale for the first time in a long long time! One of the largest floating homes on Lake Union, she occupies the entire end of the dock--moorage on 3 sides. The views of the city are unblocked, unparalleled & unbelievable. The 4 bed/2 bath floating manse boasts 2800 sq ft, 22’ ceilings, hardwood floors, updated chef’s kitchen & cozy fire place in living room. There are 2 master suites & the other two bedrooms also used as office & TV room. Let’s talk about indoor/outdoor entertaining & decks: This home has tons. Downstairs there’s a heated & covered deck with a hot tub, and the coolest floating dock (you can’t do this anymore, but she can). Upstairs, there’s a Juliette perch off the living room, & deck off master with spiral staircase to rooftop deck allowing you to enjoy the last bit of sunset. Two more decks off the dining room & kitchen. Almost no other floating home has this many perches. The home is infused with light, amazing protected views & unique separation from neighbors. AC & security, too. The home has 1 reserved off-street parking space across street from dock entrance. Current owners made many improvements: new siding, new exterior & interior paint, new floors, new hot tub, totally upgraded electric, outdoor plugs for electric boats, outdoor heat lamps, new circular stairs to rooftop deck, and updated and improved the floatation system. Tom Hanks would have killed to try to sleep in this Seattle gem. The float is the way.
