About this property

Welcome to Ravennity! Very close to Light Rail, UW, Greenlake

Just a 5 minute walk from the Roosevelt light rail station, this spacious, 2 bedroom apartment is at a nexus for urban and natural amenities. On the top floor of a classic craftsman home, it overlooks a tree-lined boulevard. The fully equipped kitchen includes cookware, induction cook top, oven, and full size fridge. Newly renovated with washer and dryer in unit. It is walking distance to parks, a Whole Foods grocery store, and many restaurants and other fun destinations.

The space:
There are custom and artistic touches throughout the space. The front porch offers a pleasant sanctuary overlooking the boulevard: perfect for morning coffee or evening cocktails. The TV includes a Firestick so you can easily log into your personal steaming accounts. Owners live and work onsite, happy to respond to any questions.

Guest access
Just 5 blocks from the new Roosevelt Light Rail station, you'll be able get to and from the airport in under an hour regardless of traffic! Downtown is just a 10 minute ride. Some guests have found it cheaper to rent a car from the Avis/Budget car rental one block away rather than shuttling around a busy airport.

If you wish, I will grind organic coffee fresh the day you arrive. Caffeinated or decaf, just let me know. Otherwise, Urban Luxe Cafe is right around the corner and Herkimer Coffee, just up the street. And wonderful nearby restaurants too numerous to mention; I'll send you a detailed list on request.

University District Farmers Market is open Saturdays from 9 - 2.

We offer 2 off street parking spots and there is usually free all day street parking available nearby.

Other things to note:
NO CHORES! As our guests, there is no to-do list at check-out.
All bedding and towels are 100% cotton.
We are meticulous about cleaning.
Quiet hours 10pm - 7am
Please contact me if you need flexibility in your arrival or departure or anything else.
No such thing as a stupid question ~ just ask!

Quick but Sweet Stay

We only stayed one night, but it was so enjoyable. We loved the neighborhood, we walked to Wholefoods and cooked in, kitchen had everything we need. Was pleasantly suprised at all the "nice" extra touches in the unit. Fresh ground coffee, snacks and drinks in the fridge, it made us feel right at home. Wynia was super sweet and checked in on us when we arrived, she really has thought of everything. The upstairs apt has lots of charm, loved the older light switches and the historic details while having all the modern things that make staying in the apt comfortable. It was really a pleasure. Great experience if only for one night. I appreciate renting from someone who has put so much thought into making her guests feel at home.

Fantastic Stay in Great Neighborhood

Clean and charming apartment in a convenient location and great neighborhood. Walking distance to light rail, Whole Foods, and multiple parks. The apartment was well stocked and comfortable. Wynia and Ben could not have been nicer, more communicative, or accommodating. They were great. Easily one of my favorite VRBO experiences. Would absolutely stay there again.

Wonderful Find

We had a wonderful time at Ravennity, a lovely 2 bedroom second floor apartment. Our hostess is an artist in several media and has made a warm attractive nest of a place including many samples of her work. She and her husband went out of their way to assure that we were comfortable. We enjoyed long walks in the neighborhood and adjacent Ravenna Park.

Excellent place, close to UW and train station

The place was excellent, very cozy, clean, and quiet. The owner was very responsive and super accommodating. We enjoyed our stay there very much. The house is conveniently located in walking distance from the UW and from the train station (in case you want to go to the city). the place was meticulously clean and had all necessities and more. will definitely recommend to others.

The place was super close to u village and campus and was adorable. The whole place had fans and AC units making it a dream in the summer heat. Our host was great and took care of everything for us! No cleaning, and she even ground us some fresh coffee!

Fantastic Location

We enjoyed our stay at Ravennity. The location was great- near Green Lake, bus lines, light rail, and groceries. We biked to the Burke-Gilman trail and took the light rail into the city center. The apartment was comfortable and the host very welcoming. We appreciated the laundry facilities and freshly ground coffee.

We had a wonderful time visiting family in Seattle. Wynia was a fabulous host. She was available if we needed anything and the space was private yet close to essentials like the park, restaurants and the grocery store. Everything was provided and we really appreciated the AC as it was hot during our stay. We just had to show up and enjoy!

Could not have had a nicer stay! Wynia was such a thoughtful host, and the apartment was comfortable and well-stocked with everything we needed plus extras.

Way better than a 4-star hotel!

We stayed in Wynia’s beautiful space for three nights during a trip back to visit Seattle neighborhoods where we used to live after many years away. After our stay here, we moved to a 4-star hotel downtown that a friend gifted us. The only problem? Everyone wished we were still tucked cozily in this Ravenna retreat, enjoying the smell of the linden blossoms, sleeping in the comfy beds, waking up to make French press coffee with fresh grounds, and relaxing on the front porch after a run on one of the many nearby paths. Our teens begged to go back! We had no problem finding delicious food (Wynia provided a great list of suggestions) and convenient transportation (the 1 line is blocks away, for those like us who don’t have a car). The space was immaculate, fully stocked, and decorated with color and art. We feel so lucky!

Ravenna Retreat

This was a perfect location for us, close to both Green Lake and the University District. The apartment has everything that you need, along with some beautiful decorative artwork. I appreciated the tea options that were available. We enjoyed meeting our host, and she was happy to make recommendations. When we had an issue or question, she responded quickly. We would love to stay here when we visit again!

Excellent place to stay near UW

We really enjoyed our stay Ravennity! The house is in a quiet residential neighborhood a short drive from UW, with many restaurants and grocery stores a short walk away. The apartment was clean and spacious, with plenty of amenities including freshly ground coffee! Wynia (the host) was always very responsive and checked in us often to make sure everything was going well. She even made sure we had enough coffee to last through the trip. Overall, we'd highly recommend if you're looking for a clean, comfortable place to stay while visiting UW and the surrounding area!

About the host

Hosted by Wynia Lang

Host profile image
I love Seattle and would be happy to meet you! I moved here from rural Wisconsin when I was 18, and never left. For the last three decades I have been creating custom art glass for high end architectural projects. You’ll see some of it in evidence here. My studio is on the main floor. Husband Ben and I are in this together but you’re more likely to see me ~ I’m the on-site extrovert.

I have a long-standing fondness for etymology and entomology. I have a larger than average collection of beetles and seed pods. Partner dancing and country duets light me up!

I love exploring outdoors including nearby Ravenna Park; a symphony of sounds and rich aromas.
