About this property
LIGHT-FILLED SEATTLE CONDO WITH LOW HOA DUES & RENTAL FLEXIBILITY! Low HOA dues and a rental-friendly policy make this a compelling opportunity for homeowners and investors. Tucked on a quiet, tree-lined street between First Hill and Capitol Hill, this light-filled home offers a peaceful retreat with exceptional city access. Large windows bring in abundant natural light, while the flexible layout lives comfortably like a one-bedroom, with a defined sleeping area and separate living space. Generous storage includes a walk-in closet and extra building storage. Located on the private first floor at the back of a classic 1930 building, the home feels quiet and removed while keeping everything within easy reach. With a Walk Score of 98 and Transit Score of 100, Seattle University, First Hill hospitals, Whole Foods, Boon Boona Coffee, Salt & Straw, and Top Pot are just outside your door. Head to the rooftop terrace for open skies and city views. Light-filled, low-maintenance, exceptionally connected, and rental-friendly—no car necessary! For even more convenience, zoned street parking and secure garage parking options are available nearby, within just a few blocks.
