The space
This newly furnished and remodeled home has modern amenities, a quiet location, and proximity to all that Seattle has to offer.
The living areas are spread over three levels.
The entry level has a bedroom with lots of possibilities... perfect for groups of all different configurations. It has a twin over twin bunk bed, as well as a twin over full bunk bed. Just outside this bedroom is a full bathroom with bathtub.
Up one level is the main living area. This open concept space has a chef's kitchen with modern counter tops and stainless steel appliances. This flows directly to the dining area with seating for 8 (expands to accommodate more), plus stools at the breakfast counter. Continuing from the dining area is the living room, furnished with a queen futon, DVD, and cable TV. Enjoy our collection of games in front of the gas fireplace.
Continuing up to the top floor, you arrive at dual master bedrooms, each with an en suite bathroom. One bedroom has a king bed and the other has a queen bed.
The home also features a washer/dryer for use by our guests.

The neighborhood
This home is central to everything Madison Valley has to offer: great restaurants, parks, hiking, supermarkets, day spas, and more.
Your hosts made Madison Valley their home when settling in Seattle 8 years ago... and haven't looked back since.
We love walking the streets of this neighborhood, and we will gladly suggest fun walks depending on your interests. Stroll to the beach at Madison Park. Walk by multi-million dollar estates. Discover hidden neighborhood gems such as the farmhouse with horses in the yard and the home that doubles as an eclectic art studio and antique truck gallery. Take a walk through the fabled Arboretum to Lake Washington.
Once you have worked up your appetite, enjoy the countless restaurants that Madison Valley ("Little Paris") has to offer. In addition to French gems, try our favorite tapas restaurant or the best Japanese food east of Tokyo. Take your morning coffee in one of numerous bakeries. Or opt for Thai, pan-Asian, craft pizza, Tex-Mex or more.
Our home provides easy access to Downtown (Pikes Place Market, Seattle Art Museum, Seattle Great Wheel), Seattle Center (Space Needle, Chihuly Glass Museum), South Lake Union (MOHAI), University of Washington, and Capitol Hill. All are accessible by car, bus (numerous bus lines a few blocks from home), or for the adventurous, by foot.
If all of this touring (and eating) has you tired, pamper yourself with a visit to a day spa or nail salon. There are several of each within a few blocks of home, and we are happy to point you in the right direction.
