It’s the kind of view that stops you in your tracks the moment you walk in. Set atop a boutique 11 unit building on the southeast slope of Queen Anne, the home offers a great mix of privacy, scale, and everyday livability. Two private decks give you front-row seats to some of the best scenery in the city—perfect for morning coffee or winding down at the end of the day. Inside, the layout is spacious and functional without feeling overdone. The oversized living room flows into a formal dining area, and there’s a breakfast nook that looks straight out over the lake. The kitchen is built for both cooking and gathering, with stainless appliances, a large island, and black granite counters—all oriented toward the views. The primary suite is a standout, with south-facing exposure, incredible city and Space Needle views, a walk-in closet, and an en-suite bath. Two additional bedrooms offer flexibility for guests, kids, or a home office, along with a shared hallway bathroom. You’ll also find a dedicated laundry room with full-size washer and dryer, plus plenty of storage throughout. From a convenience standpoint, the building checks all the boxes—tuck-under parking and elevator service from the garage level all the way up to the penthouse make day-to-day living easy. Location-wise, you’re just a short walk to Queen Anne Avenue, Roy Street, and Taylor Ave shops and restaurants, with quick access to Seattle Center, Climate Pledge Arena, Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, Amazon, and UW Medicine. Easy access to Highway 99 makes getting around the city simple. If you’ve been waiting for a true penthouse with real square footage, unbeatable views, and a walkable Queen Anne location—this is it.
