Modern Life City House

In Columbia City, you’re in your own small “city” where everything you might desire is right at your fingertips. In less than half a mile, you’ll find yourself in the heart of Columbia City’s business district, where grocery shopping, a farmers market, cute shops, destination dining, entertainment, and more all await. When you need to pick up fresh ingredients, head to PCC Community Markets, stop by the Farmers Market on Wednesdays to peruse dozens of stalls, visit Bob’s Quality Meats, and pick up fresh baked goods from Columbia City Bakery. If you don’t feel like cooking, dine out close to home at raved about restaurants like La Medusa, Island Soul Rum Bar & Soul Shack, Geraldine’s Counter, Super Six, Pagliacci Pizza, Tutta Bella Neapolitan Pizzeria, Taproot Cafe & Bar, The Comfort Zone, Bua 9 Thai Cuisine… and more. Stop by Coffeeholic House, Empire Roasters & Records, or Olympia Coffee Roasting to fuel up in the morning, and grab a drink at Columbia City Ale House or at Lottie’s Lounge. This is only the beginning—there are so many other great eateries and shops to check out!

Situated just a couple of blocks from the Columbia City Light Rail Station, this home is in a prime location for an effortless commute. Hop on the light rail train and enjoy a traffic-free ride into Downtown Seattle, or keep riding all the way to University of Washington. The light rail also goes to SeaTac International Airport, making this a smart spot for frequent flyers. Getting around the area via car is also a breeze—Interstate-5 is only 4 minutes away, and the I-90 Bridge is just a 6-minute drive away.

Excellent transit and city amenities are easily within reach, but with this location, you don’t have to sacrifice outdoor beauty for urban convenience! Cheasty Greenspace is practically in your backyard, and here you’ll find scenic trails to explore that let you feel like you’re miles and miles away from the city. Jefferson Park Golf Course is also right around the corner, and the 52-acre Jefferson Park with its dynamic offerings is less than 1 mile from home. In the opposite direction heading toward Lake Washington, Rainier Playfield flows into Genesee Playfields, Genesee Dog Park, Genesee Park & Playfield, and eventually ending at Stan Sayres Memorial Park & Boat Launch right on Lake Washington. It’s an impressive, connected network of parks, and you could even continue on along Lake Washington Boulevard to extend your adventure!

During the past couple of years, many people with open-concept living spaces found themselves in need of separate rooms due to work from home, online school, and all of the challenges brought by just needing to be at home a lot! And with so many jobs transitioning to more flexible schedules, many people are finding themselves in need of a home office (or two). This home features 4 bedrooms, plus an office, and each versatile space is ready to grow and evolve with your changing wants and needs in the years to come!
