About this property

Seattle Carriage House: Private Urban Retreat with Chickens

  • This enchanting home, is a wonderful place for enjoying your time in Seattle. Part rustic hunting lodge - part romantic cabin nestled in the quaint city neighborhood. Very private, very classy and very fun! This comfortable and well stocked and cared for home is well equipped for all of your needs.

    Situated at the intersections of Capitol Hill, Eastlake and Portage Bay neighborhoods which are very central to all Seattle has to offer and a really cool area to call home while you explore Seattle and really get a sense of enjoying city life.

    Walk to wonderful restaurants, party at the hip Pine/Pike corridor, watch the sunset from the West side of our location, and the sunrise just down the hill....both within a very short walk. Super quick drive or very short cab ride downtown, walk to U-District, Gas Works Park the Arboretum, Broadway, Madison Park, Volunteer Park, and bike just about anywhere on the Burke-Gilman trail just across the bridge or at the extreme mountain bike course (look up 1-5 Colanade Mountain Bike Park). Jump on a paddleboard or rent a kayak just on the other side of the bridge as well - (Check out Aqua Verde Paddle Club and Cafe). Skiing and tubing is an hour away at Snoqualmie Pass, or you can go wine tasting at Chateau St. Michelle or check out Redhook Brewery in Woodinville. White water rafting is about 60-90 minutes as well. There is a lot to do here!

    Families will love the separate spaces on the top floor and main floor, hidden nooks, shelves and shelves of games and toys for ALL ages, enjoy the rustic and comfortable features and careful attention to every detail.

    Totally refinished with all modern amenities including Rinnai water heater, gas range, stainless steel appliances, air conditioning, stereo system, high speed internet, cable for two tv's, Nintendo Swtich, tons of movies, games and books.

    Sleeps quite 6 comfortably with very comfortable beds with down comforters, wonderful linens and mattresses including a Tempur-Pedic. Two main bedrooms on first level, and space for at least 4 with one bed and a futon and a secret nook on the second floor.

    Two fireplaces, full - subway tiled bathroom with chandelier, fantastic modern and rustic lighting throughout. Full kitchen with dishwasher and all of the necessary equipment to entertain, cook and prepare meals or relax and open a bottle of wine and party with friends!

    This is a great place that has been enjoyed by families, friends, girls weekends, guys weekends, wedding parties, and extended stays. The courtyard and location of the house give this place real added private feel in the middle of the city.

    Our guests LOVE our city chickens! Plan to take a few eggs for breakfast as our guests, or just get to know the friendly girls.

    It really is a great place to enjoy a vacation or get away! Let me know if I can help you plan anything, or if you have any questions that I can help with. We love this place, and really want you to be able to enjoy your time here too.

    Managed by 'ex' Four Seasons Hotel employee and clean freak.
