This is a 1940s wood-frame house, fully renovated, in the part of Seattle where the food alone is worth the trip. An award-winning interior designer handled the overhaul: cherry cabinetry, granite counters, a terracotta tile accent wall in the bathroom, new flooring throughout. It reads like someone's actual home, because for a long time it was.<br /><br />You're in the <b> Central District </b>, a five-minute walk from <b> COMMUNION </b> and three blocks from the neighborhood's Ethiopian restaurant row. Cook in the <b> full kitchen </b> if you want, or don't. There's a built-in desk nook if you need to get work done between meals.<br /> Ground-floor, one bedroom, one bathroom, with its own private entrance.<br /><br /><b> Kitchen </b>: cherry cabinetry, granite countertops, full appliance suite including dishwasher and electric range. Built for actually cooking, not just reheating.<br /><br /><b> Living Room </b>: cream linen sectional, brass pendant lighting, wall-mounted speakers, a flat-screen TV, and a built-in desk nook for remote work.<br /><br /><b> Bedroom </b>: a bay window with floor-length linen curtains, olive bedding, and a reading chair. Quiet and restful, away from the street side.<br /><br /><b> Bathroom </b>: terracotta tile accent wall, matte black fixtures, floating vanity, combination tub and shower.<br /><br />Throughout the unit: new flooring, designer wallpaper accents, and lighting chosen room by room rather than bought in a set. Fast wifi and fresh linens are provided. <br />Worth knowing up front: this is a converted house, not new construction. You'll hear footsteps from the unit above, and the original windows let in some street noise. We leave a white noise machine running for exactly this reason. If quiet at all costs matters more to you than character and location, this probably isn't your place. If you want a real kitchen, a walk to some of the best food in the city, and a private entrance to call your own for a few nights, it probably is.
