    What's special

    Heirloom wood-burning fireplaceGarden plotsLarge walk-in hallway closetHardwood floorsPlaster-of-paris wallsShade treesPrivate fenced yard
    HUGE private fenced yard, ALL utilities included ($800 a month value) in this Wallingford Duplex! Private driveway and eligibility to buy a resident parking pass from the city. If you do your own yard work, you get a $200 monthly rent discount! Pets - Dog owner's dream! Hardwood floors, doggie door letting out to a fully fenced backyard. The yard is huge - with a firepit, picnic table, garden plots, shade trees and two storage sheds. You'll only need to take the doggo for walks when you want... to all the local parks! Just the Right Size - Inside you have a heirloom wood-burning fireplace, Plaster-of-Paris walls, spacious bathroom with blue tile and recent plumbing, and a large walk-in hallway closet for indoor storage (both bedrooms also have standard closets). Peekaboo views of the Needle and downtown from the back porch, Mt. Rainer and the Cascades from the living room windows. Two watertight storage sheds with 200 sq ft of extra storage. Neighborhood - Check out the Walkscore! - 2 minute walk to Kate's Pub and all the other nightspots. - 10 minute walk to Gasworks park (feel free to sublet your parking space out to fireworks watchers!), - 15 minute walk to your UW classroom. - 20 minute walk (or 5 min drive) to the Zoo. - 30 Minute Bike to South Lake Union (we know, we used to bike it ourselves) - Transit - Half a block from the 26, 512, 301, and 661 stops. A block to the 5, 860, 871, and 880. 15 minute walk to the Light Rail - You can take your pick between the Wallingford and U-district Farmers markets (within bag-carrying range) Kids - The schools are the best in the city, and we are half a city block from the best elementary school in Washington (the International School). Not a suburb - This is a city house for city people - those moving from the suburbs might not be able to handle the road sounds. The house comes with a driveway AND entitlement to buy a resident pass from the city. Average Uber/Lyft ride gets here in 2 minutes. Us: We used to live in this gorgeous place and are heartbroken to leave it. We are NOT using a property manager; no faceless corporation or cold bureaucracy here. Feel free to negotiate your lease! Being small-time owners we cannot go months without a rent payment, but we'll understand when times get tough. We are looking for people partner with to keep this house filled with joy for many years to come. Note - A single-occupancy apartment downstairs is not included in the lease and shares a laundry room. Our family still lives in that lower unit. WE pay all the utilities for you (800 per month value). All utilities included (a $800 a month value in the winter)! Fully refundable $600 per pet deposit (max of 2). Security deposit, pet deposit, first and last month's rent due at start. Spreading out initial payments over 6 months OK.
