About this home

Worth a fresh look in Ballard! This bright 2-bedroom, 1-bath condo offers a hard-to-find combination of value, features, and location. Tucked among mature trees, this peaceful second-floor home feels private while keeping you close to everything Ballard has to offer. Inside, you'll find an open-concept layout with warm hardwood floors, a wood-burning fireplace, A/C, and a private balcony overlooking lush greenery. The updated kitchen features cherry cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, breakfast bar, and a pass-through that keeps the living space connected. You'll also appreciate the in-unit washer/dryer, designated garage parking, and low HOA dues — features that can be surprisingly difficult to find at this price point. Step outside and you're minutes from Ballard Avenue, the Farmers Market, restaurants, breweries, shops, Ballard Locks, Golden Gardens, and the Burke-Gilman Trail. If you've been watching Ballard and waiting for the right opportunity, come take another look. Buyers financing with the preferred lender may qualify for a 1% lender credit, up to $10,000. Ask your broker for details. Sometimes the right home makes more sense in person. Come see what this one has to offer.
