Welcome to The Ives, a 1928 Seattle classic at the crossroads of Eastlake & Portage Bay. This spacious corner studio is bright and utterly charming with an abundance of period details; coved ceilings, built-ins, hardwood floors and leaded glass French doors concealing a space saving Murphy bed. A walk in closet large enough to double as home office space, an inviting living room, separate dining area and a remodeled kitchen. A canvas of greenery beyond large windows for peace and privacy in a pet friendly building with a secured storage space, shared laundry and bike room. Stellar location allowing for easy access to neighborhood cafes, Lake Union’s waterfront as well as UW, Capitol Hill, South Lake Union and Downtown. Quintessential Seattle city living!
