About this home
Welcome aboard one of Seattle's most unforgettable homes, an original City-registered housebarge floating on Lake Union. This isn't just a 2-bedroom houseboat...it's a front-row seat to life on the water. Perched on a coveted outer deck with leased slip, you'll soak in breathtaking, unobstructed lake views & cotton-candy sunrises right from your king-sized bed. The upper level showcases grand carved pillars, etched glass accents, a wall of windows, open-concept living, granite counters, & gleaming refinished floors. It's artistic, soulful, & anything but cookie-cutter. The second bedroom fits a queen or makes the ultimate home office-because Zoom hits differently when sailboats glide past your window. Yes, you can even jump from the upstairs windows straight into the lake. Hauled out & pre-inspected June 2025. Moorage $1,325/month including utilities. Financing available. RPZ off-street parking. Pets welcome~teach your dog to climb the swim ladder! Less than a mile from downtown & minutes to Google, Adobe, Amazon, & the beloved Fremont Market. You can kayak after work & hop Bus 40 to Ballard or the stadiums. Watch sailboat races during Duck Dodge, catch 4th of July fireworks, Christmas boat parades, & New Year's sparkle at the Space Needle. Located in China Harbor where neighbors become friends: marina parties, floatie hangouts, ducks eating from your hand, blue herons & seals-it's truly magical. You are not only purchasing a home, you are purchasing an extraordinary lifestyle!
