General overview
Our home in the Seaview Neighborhood of West Seattle boasts sweeping views of the Puget Sound and Olympic Mountains. While our street is private and safe, we are located within an easy walk to Lowman Beach, Lincoln Park and numerous restaurants. We are a short e-bike ride from famous Alki Beach and the ferry to Vashon Island and the Kitsap Peninsula. Downtown Seattle is a short water taxi ride away via Alki. Seattle is within an hour of the Cascade Mountains, with great skiing and hiking opportunities. if you are looking for the best of both worlds: city amenities with the coziness of a west coast beach town, you will love staying in our home.
The space
Our home is located on a private street and offers an open-concept floor plan on the entry level, with sweeping views of the Puget Sound from every room of the main living space. The primary bedroom, laundry and a small sitting room are upstairs. Furnished decks can be accessed from both the living room and primary suite.
We are offering use of two small children’s bedrooms on the first floor, separated by a barn-style door. Both children’s bedrooms contain twin-sized daybeds that can be converted to king-sized beds, if needed. Children’s bedrooms are across the hall from a full bathroom.
The airy primary suite has vaulted ceilings and skylights, with sliding doors that lead to a covered patio. The upstairs bathroom has a jetted tub, two sinks and a shower.
Notes
Our home has five bedrooms, but we are currently offering three for exchange, as we are hosting an au pair through September 2024. Her bedroom and that of our oldest child will remain locked during the exchange (they will not be home). In the future, we will be able to host up to 8 guests.

Neighbourhood
Seaview is located on the western side of West Seattle, facing the Puget Sound and Olympic Mountains. You can watch cargo ships, sailboats and ferries float by from both levels of the home. On occasion, one of the resident orca pods can be seen swimming in our stretch of water.
Walk to the nearby beach to enjoy paddle boarding, picnicking or even scuba diving (if you’re willing to brave the chilly ocean waters). Walk a bit further, into Lincoln Park, to find a playground, wading pool, trails and sport courts. During the summer, you can enjoy Lincoln Park’s public saltwater pool.
We can offer two e-bikes for your use. We are a 10-15 minute bike ride from sandy Alki Beach, with tons of restaurant, coffee and entertainment options. The Junction, West Seattle’s downtown area, is within easy walking or biking distance, as well.
Getting to my home
