About this property

One Block Off Broadway - 2 bed/2 bath with parking in hip historic Capitol Hill

Perfect location! 98 walk score. Seattle's oldest and hottest neighborhood. East Mercer at 10th Ave East. Ground floor apartment just four blocks to Capitol Hill light rail station ($3 to/from airport), streetcar, best restaurants, coffee shops & bars and Volunteer Park. South Lake Union just down the hill. Fred Hutch, hospitals, Kenmore Air and Space Needle and MoPop within minutes. Street car to Seattle University or International District. Car? You don't need one but I have private off street parking.

Gorgeous updated 1902 Dutch Colonial with unique loft-style feel. You have entire main floor with outdoor patio. Perfect for two couples, friends or family up to five. Both bedrooms have new high-quality queen beds with their own full baths (one has a two-person shower, the other a shower / tub), with Euro Duravit low-flow toilets. Beds have hotel quality duvets with allergy protectors on mattresses and pillows and soft microfiber sheets. Extra-long trundle bed couch (new 2022) in living room easily coverts to a queen bed and sleeps a fifth guest. We have a Pac-n-play available for infants/toddlers.

Amazing sun-drenched kitchen has high end gas stove, farm sink, stainless built-in fridge and huge oak island. My wife is an amazing French trained cook, so kitchen is well stocked. Living room has 50" 4K UHD TV with all streaming services and a gas fireplace. Forced-air central heat and zone AC keeps things just the right temp. Washer/dryer in unit. Coded locks on both doors mean no keys to pick up or return.

Great for business and corporate stays, events or sightseeing, visiting relatives, or checking out the music or sports scene. Light rail goes directly the stadiums (in 12 minutes) and the University of Washington (in 5 min). I know you'll love this space. It has a wonderful cozy comfort that is hard to beat.

Blissful Stay in One Block Off Broadway

We loved our family vacation in Capitol Hill! It was the perfect home away from home, and an ideal spring point for wandering around Seattle. We has everything we needed for a family with two children, ages 9 & 12. The home home is sweet, cozy and inviting. It was just the right a amount of space. The owners have thoughtfully provided so many things. Mike and Kat are wonderful hosts. We highly recommend this home!

Enjoyed our stay!

It was fun to explore the Broadway area. Lots of restaurants within walking distance. Our hosts were very accommodating, even added YouTubeTV to their streaming service so we could watch Huskie football!. Kitchen was well stocked so could easily cook. The 8 stairs up to the entry were a bit of a challenge, but otherwise our stay was great.

Friends and Family in Seattle

Renting and staying in One Off Broadway was a delightful experience. The owner was understanding and helpful when we needed to change our scheduled stay. Communication throughout was clear and thorough. The space was great for two couples and was comfortable for visits from our son and his friend. It is a great location to walk to QFC, restaurants, and Volunteer Park.

Feels like home

What we really enjoyed about this property is the cozy and comfortable atmosphere that made it feel like home. The kitchen is beautiful if you want to do some cooking and there are lovely local restaurants if you want to eat out. The beds are comfortable. Everything is well stocked and thought of. Everything was very clean and well cared for. The outdoor patio was a sweet little cove to have a quiet conversation. The warm hospitality and helpfulness of the hosts was the cream on top.

Superb Stay

I have stayed at many vacation rentals here in the US as well as outside the US. This is one of the best if not the best we’ve stayed in The instructions were clear. Check in was smooth. The owners checked in during the stay offering assistance but none was needed!’ I loved the little notes left around the rental reinforcing instructions on appliances, temperature control etc. The home was extremely comfortable and tasteful. We absolutely intend to stay at this rental next time we visit Seattle

Perfect home away

This property is amazing. It is clean and so well stocked with everything you could need. Location is great. We used public transportation for the most part and it was very convenient. Neighborhood is quiet. Grocery store very close. Found a great place in the neighborhood that sells locally made frozen entrees for those days you are tired and just want to relax at home.

Wow, they thought of Everything!

We generally stay in hotels when traveling to Seattle. It was a choice between two hotel rooms or a VRBO with two bedrooms. Avoiding the usual haunts was our attempt to "reconnect" with the Capital Hill area. Our hosts were welcoming, informative, open to communication and information-sharing even before the booking. On arrival we were immediately impressed. The property does sit in a central part of Capital hill within easy walking or ride share distance from everywhere we wanted to be. As in the photo, the kitchen is magnificently appointed, thoughtfully stocked and appealing. Snacks, baked goods, and a bottle of wine awaited us. The nuance "little things" were all part of the first impression. The entire living space is beautifully decorated, tastefully/fashionably updated, while retaining the character of original construction. All one needs from music to wide screen TV with wealth of channels, gas fireplace, high quality furnishings, extremely comfortable bedding, toiletries, AND protected parking are all part of the package. This property is kept in immaculate shape, and the owners' rescue dog driveway greeting is a charming bonus. Throughout our stay we had privacy, comfort, felt welcomed, free of "house rules", and left with a feeling of having received fabulous value. Thank you Mike and Kathleen! We will return.

About the host

Hosted by Mike and Kathleen

I personally manage the property to a very high standard. No management company involved.
I bought my house in 2002. It's a 1901 Dutch Colonial that was completely remodeled in the 1980s and 2012 to make it into two terrific living spaces.
I live upstairs with my lovely wife, a French trained chef and best-selling author. I'm a tech guy who studied architecture so I've also put my own stamp on this home, too. Most notably, I remodeled the downstairs apartment, moving the kitchen into what was a barely used conservatory. I completely rebuilt it, installing high-end skylights, solid wood custom cabinetry, kitchen island and even a gas stove.

Why they chose this property

It sits at the edge of the most vibrant urban neighborhood in Seattle. The ability to walk to literally dozens of restaurants, bars and coffeehouses was what attracted me to this house as I had lived in London just before purchasing it. The home has five garages in what used to be a 1900's carriage house for horses in the back. Off street parking too, a rarity in this neighborhood.

What makes this property unique

Off street parking
Just four blocks / 5-min walk to light rail station
Two private entrances
Covered front porch or large side patio surrounded by greenery
Beautifully finished interior
Bright natural light year round
Just far enough of the busy main high street to be quiet yet in the middle of everything
Just four blocks from a vast and beautiful park with a conservatory and museum
Wifi, Netflix, Amazon Prime Video
Amazon Echo music and information device
Easy coded self-locking door handles with your personal code to enter
