    West Seattle boasts a largely diverse range of homes, townhomes, condos, and single family residences. So, for many, it's a long haul neighborhood meaning you'll be able to stay here through the many seasons of life.

  • What to expect

    The people who live in West Seattle LOVE living there. West Seattle is HUGE, and basically its own city that’s made up of smaller micro-neighborhoods, each one with its own unique feel.

  • real talk

    West Seattle feels like its own city which has its positives but also means you can be somewhat isolated from Seattle proper. There really is no need to come to the city so you'll want to be prepared to dive into the culture and activities of West Seattle. Also, commuting into Downtown is doable but if you work on the Eastside you'll want to negotiate a few work from home days. .

TRANSIT

Some people might have the impression that West Seattle is “too far away,” but with so many great transit options you can still easily zip around the city from here! West Seattle has a myriad of bus lines, and those who need to utilize the bus to commute for work will likely find the RapidRide C Line most useful. This line has several stops throughout West Seattle and and goes straight into the heart of Downtown Seattle and South Lake Union. You can also take a water taxi straight into Downtown Seattle if that’s more your style!

For those who love to jet off to far away vacations or just need to travel frequently for work, West Seattle is a *prime* choice—you’re just about a 15-18 minute drive (depending where in West Seattle you live) right to the airport.

Plus, Light Rail is coming to town with 5 added stations between the Stadiums and Alaska Junction (coming in 2030!).

What people are saying

“Having bought and sold several homes, I can honestly say Matt and his team are the best in the business! Matt is knowledgeable, personable, and incredibly organized. After we moved out of state, he handled everything — from new carpets and painting to cleaning and staging. The whole process was seamless, and working with Matt and his team remotely was completely stress-free. Thank you so much for making it so easy!”

“We've worked with Matt twice now (both times very successfully) and honestly wouldn't go to anyone else. This time around we got to work with the whole team - everyone is so great and they all go above and beyond. GHAH just makes the whole thing so much easier and Matt keeps it so real. From day one they actually listened to what we wanted and what our budget was, but kept our expectations inline with what was realistic. It feels like working with someone who is genuinely on our side. They're incredibly organized and communicative too. Appointments were always smooth, they do all the scheduling with other companies as needed, we always knew what was happening next, and we never had to wonder where things stood. That kind of hand-holding (in the best way) makes a huge difference when the process can feel so overwhelming. We're also using Happy at Home Contracting - equally amazing! Medardo and team are top tier. Truly cannot say enough good things about Matt and the GHAH team!”
