About this home

Perched on the 4th floor of Canal Station North, this light-filled residence offers a front-row seat to the best of Ballard living. Step outside to iconic coffee spots, destination dining, boutique shops, live music, the Nordic Museum, and the beloved Sunday Farmers Market, with the Locks and Golden Gardens just minutes away for scenic strolls and sunset escapes. Inside, expansive south-facing windows bathe the home in natural light while capturing serene canal and Olympic Mountain views from every room. The open 2-bedroom + den, 1.75-bath layout is thoughtfully designed for both everyday living and entertaining, with excellent bedroom separation and a spacious, airy feel throughout. The timeless kitchen blends style and function with shaker-style cabinetry, honed granite counters with bar seating, and stainless steel GE appliances, opening effortlessly to the living area. A private balcony extends the living area—an ideal spot for morning coffee, evening wine, or simply soaking in the views. The primary suite comfortably accommodates a king-sized bed and features a walk-in closet and an ensuite ¾ bath. A private second bedroom with its own walk-in closet is ideally positioned near a full bath, while the versatile den provides space for a home office or study. In-unit laundry, generous storage, two side-by-side parking spaces, and a dedicated storage unit complete the offering. Light-filled, low-maintenance, and effortlessly stylish—this is Ballard living at its best.
