608 E Lynn St

1929 Classic Bg. w/ Original Fixtures & Finishes This is a one bedroom, 1 bath apartment at the El Cerrito, which is a nine unit building located at 608 East Lynn St., in Seattle's Eastlake neighborhood. The El Cerrito is a 1920s Everett Beardsly, Mediterranean style design that features tiled baths, hardwood floors, nine foot beamed and coved ceilings, and arched windows with stained glass accents. The El Cerrito has never been "remudeled," so most of the original fixtures, finishes and character are intact. This unit is on the top floor in the southwest corner of the building. It is approximately 800 (honest) square feet and is well laid out with large rooms and ample closet space. There is one large bedroom that can easily accommodate a king sized bed, a couple of dressers and a desk. The living room is light and spacious with very large south facing windows, plenty of room for entertaining and space left over for a formal dining table and chairs. The kitchen has an adjacent breakfast nook sized eating area and enough extra space to accommodate a portable dishwasher that comes with the unit (if desired). The tiled bath is light and airy and features a separate, adjacent dressing and makeup area with a built-in vanity table and room for a bench or stool. There are day and night views of the space needle, downtown buildings and Lake Union from every room -- even the bathroom! There is also a shared roof top deck one floor up with picnic tables, barbecues and sweeping views of Lake Union and downtown. The building is occupied by a diverse group of professionals and has a very strong sense of community. The rent includes water, sewer and garbage utilities, AND hot water. There is a FREE storage locker in the basement of the building and FREE bicycle storage in a shared garage with outside access. Parking is on street via City of Seattle Residential Parking Zone (RPZ) permit. Shared laundry facilities are in the building three floors below this unit. There is ample room to conveniently store your laundry supplies in the room. Cost to wash AND dry a whole load in only 50 cents. Pets may be considered on an individual case basis.
