About This Home

Top floor living with Space Needle and Elliott Bay views — this is the one. Perched on the top floor of this well-located Queen Anne boutique building, this south-facing top floor condo delivers something rare: a space that feels expansive, intentional, and quietly luxurious — all at once. Natural light pours through every room, landing on rich hardwood floors, designer lighting, and a gas fireplace that anchors the living space with warmth. The kitchen has been remodeled to impress — waterfall quartz counters, custom cabinetry, and stainless appliances make it equally suited to weeknight dinners and weekend entertaining. The bathroom? A spa-like retreat, fully reimagined with finishes that feel far from ordinary. Step onto your private balcony and take it in: Elliott Bay shimmering in the distance, the Space Needle framing the skyline, and sunsets that make it genuinely hard to go inside. When rooftop views are calling, the communal deck delivers a full panoramic payoff. Every detail has been considered for how you actually live — a custom bedroom closet, an additional storage unit across the hall, in-unit washer/dryer, and dedicated garage parking. And with strong rental potential, this is as smart financially as it is beautiful. World-class dining, coffee shops, and nightlife are steps away, with Queen Anne, Belltown, South Lake Union, and downtown all within easy reach. Some homes check boxes. This one raises the bar.
