This part of Ballard is among the most peaceful yet close to the action of Ballard. We are west of 24th which is less busy than east of 24th. We are one house off of 28th, the boundary of all single family homes to the west, again a more relaxed area than to the east. You can easily walk to the Green Grocer, Olaf's, Rupee, Kimchi House, Samara & Piccolinos on 32nd-walk! and Copine (Michelin rated gourmet restaurant!) and the new gourmet place ADDO which are due east on 24th and 63rd. If you want a more extensive grocery selection hit QFC on 24th and 57th. Walkable! And just two more blocks is Market Street and Ballard Avenue, the main streets in Old Ballard. Ballard Ave. is one of the best streets in Seattle full of shops, restaurants and pubs! If you are in town on Sunday a must attend is the Ballard Sunday Market on Ballard Ave!

Please ask us for tips anytime for things to do in the area. We have been living and working in the area for decades and know every inch of Ballard and Seattle. Bobby's family has been in Seattle since about 1890!

Great Base For Any Seattle Visit

This property is remarkable. Great established, safe neighborhood. Awesome natural light, all updated amenities and at the same time warm, very clean and comfortable. Easy access to all of Seattle. Check in is a breeze and hosts Bobby and Jensa could not be better. Have stayed here many times and will continue to recommend heartily. Awesome place.

Excellent stay!

This is such a cute little apartment that worked out perfect for my family of 4. Its super clean and located in an excellent neighborhood! Very close to restaurants and coffee shops, and not a far drive from the space needle and downtown. We had such a great time during our 4 days in Seattle and would 100% stay here again. The only reason for 4 stars is the people above us were a little noisy the last 2 days of our stay, the footsteps started pretty early and we went well on into the night. But other than that, everything was perfect!
