About This Home
Welcome aboard Seaweed, a beautifully updated Seattle houseboat offering unobstructed Lake Union views and exceptional flexibility for living life on the water. Measuring 33’ x 12.6’, this thoughtfully designed floating home features rich wood interiors, abundant natural light, a jetted soaking tub, and onboard laundry—creating a warm, efficient space that lives comfortably year-round. Moored in a rare 70’+ slip, Seaweed offers far more than just a place to dock. Enjoy a private dock with ample storage, built-in cabinetry, and additional space for a second vessel or sailboat. A stunning wooden canoe is also available and negotiable with the sale. This oversized slip presents a unique opportunity for yacht owners seeking a guest or caretaker cottage, or for those wanting to expand their on-water lifestyle. The rooftop deck delivers panoramic, unobstructed views—perfect for relaxing, entertaining, or taking in iconic Lake Union sunsets. Over $100,000 has been invested in updates and maintenance, including a recent haulout, making this home truly move-in ready. Current moorage reflects the premium slip ($3,000/month + $500 liveaboard fee), though the home can be relocated to reduce monthly costs. Pets and 12-month minimum rentals are permitted. Seaweed is ideal as a full-time residence, city retreat, or lifestyle purchase—where flexibility, setting, and experience define the value.
