About this house rental
Beachside bonfires at Golden Gardens. Watching the salmon navigate their way to their spawning grounds via the Ballard locks. Ballard, once known as Shingletown for its residents’ aptitude for producing cedar shingles, is home to some of the best restaurants, bars, & music venues in the city. Located steps from some such eateries & just a block from a direct route downtown via bus line, our Tudor sanctuary has you covered if you’re in the market for a real Seattle experience.
-MAIN FLOOR-
Living room

Dining area
Kitchen
Access to turfed backyard with several seating areas
-SECOND FLOOR-
Primary bedroom: king bed, dresser, small closet, luggage rack
Secondary bedroom: Queen bed, large closet, luggage rack
Bathroom with shower and tub
Open and uncluttered, the space is airy and comfortable with sun-dappled views of mature Japanese maples. It doesn’t get much more Seattle than an urban Tudor in one of our older neighborhoods. Please use the recommendations you’ll find in the house for restaurants and things to do! There are so many wonderful things to eat, do, and see nearby.
The mattresses in the bedroom are LOVELY - high quality memory foam. Mini-split heating/cooling system allows you to control the temp separately for the two floors so you can stay super cozy all night long.
FYI there are about 12 stairs from the sidewalk to the front door and the bathroom is located on the second floor. While families of all types are welcome, we do not have high chairs available or child-proofing of any kind. Parties are prohibited.
Need more space? Check out the listing for the downstairs unit where an additional four guests can be accommodated.
We provide coffee for your first morning in town but you’ll want to pick up a bag of ground coffee for the drip machine and/or French press for the rest of your stay.
Please keep in mind that this is an older home with less than ideal insulation between this unit and the unit below. We ask that shoes be removed upon entry and tv and/or music volume be kept low at all times. Quiet hours start at 10pm, both indoor and outdoor. Smoking legal substances is perfectly fine in the backyard but no smoking or vaping in the house. Note to chefs and wannabe chefs - please use the vent above the stove while cooking. The smoke alarms are connected throughout the whole house so if one goes off the whole house will beep, including the unit below.
Your pets are adorable but please leave them at home. Also, driveway is shared with the neighbor so please park on the street - always plenty of spots available!

Our time here was fantastic! The home was in a great location and the street was very quiet. Parking on the street was never an issue. The kitchen was well stocked and we enjoyed cooking meals on the gas cooktop. Tony was very communicative and would respond to any questions we messaged him about. Would stay again and highly recommend!

This cottage was just what we needed. Everything was tidy and attractive. We had to park on the street, but every time we came, there was a perfect spot available right out front. We had our 88-year-old mother with us and she found the stairs to be a challenge, but it helped that the restroom was upstairs near the bedrooms. Our host was easy to communicate with and the neighborhood seemed quiet and safe.

The Ballard location is great and the neighborhood so adorable! The location makes it easy to get into downtown Seattle.Prior to arriving, Tony and I were in communication about his expectations of guests, so we were prepared upon arrival. The house is a lovely lodging with thoughtful amenities. The photo of the living room is exactly how the room looks. It's a great space for 2 - 4 people. There were 2 of us.Access to the house was easy and the welcome binder provides you with information of the Ballard as well the Seattle areas.You'll have all the kitchen utensils you'll need if you're cooking a meal.The backyard is cute and if you have children, there's room for them to play. The leaves on the Japanese maple were in their fall splendor.The beds were comfortable with blankets and comforters for those who trend cold, like my friend.Because we're women, we only ask for more face towels.We definitely had an enjoyable long weekend here in Ballard. Thank you for a comfortable stay!
