North Capitol Hill Craftsman — Steps from Volunteer Park, Game Room, Sleeps 16

A 4,000 sq ft North Capitol Hill Craftsman on a quiet, tree-lined street, steps from the east entrance of Volunteer Park and the Seattle Asian Art Museum. Eight bedrooms across three floors, five king beds and four queen beds, a game room with a pool table that converts to ping pong and dining, and the kind of residential street that makes guests feel like locals rather than visitors.

Volunteer Park — 48 acres of Olmsted-designed gardens, the Asian Art Museum, and the Volunteer Park Conservatory — is a 2-minute walk from the front door. The Harvard-Belmont Historic District is your immediate neighborhood. Bus routes 10 and 49 on 15th Ave E connect you to Capitol Hill Light Rail for the rest of the city.

This is one of the largest private homes available for short-term rental in North Capitol Hill — with eight bedrooms and 16 sleeping spots, it works particularly well for family reunions, multi-family trips, corporate retreats, or any group that needs significant space without splitting across multiple properties.

THE HOME

Three floors of Craftsman character — original details, warm interiors, and generous room proportions throughout. The game room on the main floor has a pool table that converts to both ping pong and a dining table, giving the group a flexible gathering space beyond the main living areas. Five king beds across the upper and main floors, four queen beds on the upper and basement floors.

Note on layout: this is an open-plan Craftsman — some of the sleeping areas are configured as open dens rather than fully enclosed rooms. Groups who require complete privacy in every room should review the layout carefully before booking.

Also note: 2.5 bathrooms for up to 16 guests. The primary bathroom is full with tub and shower. Plan accordingly for larger groups — staggered morning schedules work well.

THE NEIGHBORHOOD

North Capitol Hill is one of Seattle's most architecturally significant residential neighborhoods — the Harvard-Belmont Historic District surrounds the home with stately historic estates and mature tree canopy.

Broadway and the Pike-Pine corridor are 20 minutes on foot or a short bus ride.
