Enjoy all the comforts of home in a safe, wooded area of NE Seattle, close to UW

After sharing our ground floor apartment for 12 years as Premier Hosts, with over 200 five-star reviews (VRBO #341581, https://www.vrbo.com/341581?unitId=341581), we are ready to welcome you to our second place! This newly completed fully contained apartment in our family home in a quiet residential neighborhood is reached by a separate entrance one floor down from street level. This unit boasts a spacious open concept living/dining/kitchen area with all appliances. You’ll have full refrigerator, gas stove, dishwasher, microwave and a lovely gas fireplace. The kitchen is fully stocked with cooking utensils and dinnerware. You’ll enjoy a comfortable leather sofa with two recliners which provides perfect viewing spot for 75 inch smart TV. The table seats 4 guests with multiple other seating areas for your group. The room has a lovely outlook to the wooded garden with a view of the Burke-Gilman trail with outdoor access to the full length deck through sliding doors. On the deck you can enjoy the view or grill on the large handy gas grill. Garden, patio and fire pit use by arrangement.
The view bedroom sports a king size bed, nightstands with charging ports and an accent chair as well as television and large closet with built-ins.
The second bedroom has a queen size bed, a full closet and a television.
All rooms have easy access to the full bath with a deep soaking tub, shower and plenty of storage. Heated floor!
Your laundry room has a large capacity washer and dryer as well as an additional sink.
You will find your apartment well-stocked and maintained by the owner who lives upstairs and is always accessible. Ample street parking is available.
You will be one to two miles from the University of Washington campus, the vibrant University Village shopping center, Seattle Children’s Hospital, Magnuson Park on tranquil Lake Washington. Easy access to bus transportation and University of Washington Station. Light rail will allow you to avoid parking by whisking you swiftly downtown, to Northgate (Seattle Kraken complex) or to Sodo for Seattle Mariners, Seattle Sounders or Seattle Seahawks games. Light rail travel to or from Seattle-Tacoma International Airport takes 42 minutes with a short bus or rideshare trip from the station to your home away from home.
If you prefer to walk or bike, you can easily access the Burke Gilman trail to enjoy 27 miles of varied outlooks from the shores of Lake Washington to the UW campus to Lake Union and the thriving community of Ballard.
Several playgrounds are within a mile or two to delight the little ones. They will also enjoy the Seattle Children’s Museum at Seattle Center, where they will also find the Pacific Science Center. The Seattle Aquarium on the waterfront is a popular destination, near the Great Wheel Ferris wheel. Other nearby museums include Seattle Asian Art Museum in Volunteer Park, Museum of History and Industry on Lake Union and Seattle Art Museum downtown near the bustling Pike Place Market. Of course, you won’t want to miss the iconic Seattle Space Needle with its rotating glass floor for 360 degree views of the city and Puget Sound. Just at its base is one of our personal favorite, Chihuly Garden and Glass, showcasing the famed local glassblower’s amazing work. Of course, you can make a day trip to famed Mount Rainier or the Olympic National Park and points beyond. Hiking, biking, kayaking and more are right at your fingertips. If you look forward to staying in and enjoying your own company, you will find all the comforts of home right here!
If you need space for more guests, please check out our downstairs unit, #341581, https://www.vrbo.com/341581?unitId=341581, as well.

Delightful Stay
We enjoyed our stay because of the wonderful location and because of the extra bit of hospitality shown to us. We met the owner upon arrival and were given instructions about all of the appliances and tv. Also, we immediately noticed some of the generous touches, like welcoming chocolates and bottled water. The location is fantastic as it backs up to a great trail which is accessible down the street. We walked home from UW and to a local brewery. If you appreciate renovation details like high end tile and solid core doors like I do, then you will find those in the lovely apartment. One of the best VRBOs!

Lush garden retreat
This home is heavenly. Perfect size, newly remodeled. The owner/ Host was amazing. Walkable cafe & Metropolitan Market, the best grocery store - is right down the road. I was born & raised in Seattle, currently in SoCal ( for 27 yrs) if I were to move back- this would be the area. I absolutely love it.

Excellent property and host
Ron was hands down the finest host I’ve ever had at a rental property. He was on-site the entire time, which certainly helped with the experience, but he was very attentive from reservation through departure. He met me on site, walked me through the entire property, showed how everything worked, and was very pleasant. I saw him a few more times randomly and was always professional and communicative. The property was immaculate, very well designed and decorated and felt much larger than the square footage. The porch was a delight, beds comfortable, bathroom immaculate, kitchen operated perfectly. Close to UW -but not too close - and adjacent to the Burke Gilman Trail for runners, bikers, or walkers: a terrific amenity. I definitely recommend this property and Ron and given the opportunity I’d stay there again.

Beautiful home
We were the 2nd family to stay at Ron’s. The home was well stocked with everything we needed even extra toiletries/hygiene supplies. It was supplied with all the cleaning supplies we needed. Extra towels, blankets, pillows and sheets. When we got there Ron was ready to hand us the keys (so it’s not contactless), he gave us a quick tour of the home to show us how to use the deep shower/bath, the washing machine, dishwasher, etc. the tv has a great sound system with surround sound, we had to turn it off cuz we didn’t want to hear bluey in surround sound… LOL. The home is very modern with new appliances & furniture. The view from the balcony is beautiful. It’s on the second floor so be prepared to go down several steps to get in/out. We didn’t use the backyard at all. When we left Ron asked if there was anything he could do for the next guests, I only mentioned having instructions for the A/C cuz it got hotter at night, and we’d open the windows and the cool evening breeze was enough for our stay. Ron lives upstairs Google map said it’s 20 minute drive to downtown Seattle, but with daily traffic took us at least 30 min to get to where we wanted. My grand daughter had a concert at climate pledge and instead of 32 min, it took us 1hr and 15 min to get there. Just be prepared for traffic from this location. My grandson (3 yrs old) loved the toys in the media cabinet. Plus there were family friendly games & puzzles. We had a wonderful stay and would definitely stay here again.

Great new apartment!
We have stayed at Ron’s before and loved it. This is a new apartment in the same building. Everything is great. Two cautions for older viewers: the apartment door is fifteen steps down from the street level and the shower is in a deep tub. We had no problem with either (ron installed a shower grab bar) but better one should know. Ten day stay was relaxing and comfortable. We will be back.
