House | Entire Home | House Sitting Negotiable
Available Dates:
From August 22, 2026

Description

Our one-bedroom suite is just five blocks from the University of Washington's north entrance. It's in a daylight basement (meaning most of the suite is above ground and the windows are full-length in a turn-of-the-century home). Tastefully decorated with hints of Italy, Spain, and Mexico. Luxurious queen bed with perfectly comfortable mattress. The piano in the basement needs some work but could be tuned if negotiated. The professionally designed backyard makes one feel like they are in Europe with Italian bricks, French bistro chairs, and a water feature that makes one forget they are in the city. It is located within walking distance of The Ave (officially named University Way) and the multitude of restaurants and coffee shops. The Ave is also a hub for local transportation, being close to two light rail stations (UW 43rd and Roosevelt and 65th). It is also within walking distance of University Village if you don't mind hiking back up! Trader Joe's and Whole Foods are 12-15 blocks away. Cowen and Ravenna parks are great for strolls or runs. Rent kayaks or paddleboards on Lake Washington or Lake Union, then enjoy dinner at Agua Verde with a stunning sunset. The owners are a UW biostatistics professor who works jointly at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center and helped introduce the COVID-19 vaccines to the world and a Spanish teacher. ~900 sq feet TV/high-speed Internet All utilities included The washer and dryer unit is shared with us and is on the same floor as the apartment. Full-sized fridge The stove/oven is a smaller size. It has a 3/4 bath (sink, toilet, shower, no tub). Microwave, coffee maker, and almost every other necessity you could need in the kitchen.
