The Emerald Homestead in the Heart of the Emerald City

Ideally located near the major crossroads in Seattle, the Emerald Homestead is conveniently situated for those visiting to experience all of what Seattle has to offer, just minutes to downtown, I-90 and I-5. Set against the backdrop of sweeping panoramic views of Lake Washington, Mount Rainier and the Cascade mountain range, this architect designed home provides a great base for those who are attending weddings, family reunions or conventions to relax and recreate in a luxurious yet comfortable setting.

The neighborhood amenities offer many services within walking distance in this quiet bedroom community of single family homes.From the fine dining at Daniel’s Broiler to less formal fare at Bluwater Leschi, Heyday and That’s Amore as well as the casual dining at QED Coffee and Golden Wheat Bakery, there are several quality options for eating out within a mile.

Access to Lake Washington beaches and boat ramp are just a few minutes walk from the house. Designed by the same landscape firm that created Central Park in NYC, and known locally as the “String of Pearls”, Colman Park, Frink Park and Colman Beach all add a sylvan setting that brings nature into the city.

Cleaning guidelines to prevent the spread of COVID-19:
We’ve created 16 point cleaning checklist based on recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). We have a 48 hour waiting period in between rentals.


The flowing open floor plan painted in soft earth tones and anchored by rich exotic hardwoods, surrounds you with the finest of materials all within a jewel-like setting.

A true gourmet kitchen awaits you, complete with Viking designer series appliances, beautiful solid cherry cabinetry and opulent slab granite countertops.

Retreat to your expansive master suite complete with view deck, double sided fireplace, sumptuous bath with jetted tub, hand-crafted stone surfaces and one-of-a-kind blown glass vessel sinks.

This abundant light-filled home envelops you with the beauty of nature year round.

Christmas in Seattle

This house was perfect for our family Christmas trip! Beautiful view of the lake, quiet neighborhood, and close to the city. The owner Mark was great- very accommodating and quick to respond. The house was clean, well stocked, and the perfect size for our family. Mark even provided a Christmas tree, which the kids loved. Would definitely recommend to others and stay here again!

Great Visit!

The property is as advertised, plenty of space, stocked kitchen, perfectly located. Mark is a responsive host. My only critique is some of the furniture needs to be updated. We spent a lot of time around the dining room table, and visiting in the living room. The furniture was a bit uncomfortable. We would stay here again.

Great house, great neighborhood, great view

Our family of 8; 4 teens, 2 adults and 2 seniors, stayed in June and had a great time. The house held all of us more than comfortably, the kitchen and eating area was large enough and well stocked, as were the bathrooms. The house is in a great neighborhood with amazing views. I would recommend to friends and family for sure.
