We are a family of three with a 3.5 year old. This apartment is located near many parks and lovely walks… perfect for little ones! Paula makes it very family friendly with books, games and stuffed animals. My daughter was never bored. It’s about a 20 min drive into downtown, which didn’t feel long. It was nice to be removed from the hustle and bustle. The view from the yard of lake Washington is beautiful. We sat in the hot tub on rainy days and looked at the lake. In terms of amenities it had just enough of everything we needed. There’s a PCC market right down the street. The noise of life upstairs was never loud or overwhelming. Paula would text if anything special was happening like garbage day or gardener visit. That would give us a chance to communicate our needs too. Thank you for sharing your home with us Paula!
