Wake up to gentle water views, enjoy the natural light reflecting off the lake, and unwind in the evening with the city skyline just minutes away. Located close to downtown Seattle, the home offers convenient access to restaurants, cafes, and major employment hubs while maintaining a sense of privacy and calm on the water. Ideal for personal use, a weekend escape, or long-term ownership as a distinctive lifestyle asset.
