This is the best weekend getaway house EVER ! I live in Seattle but I wanted to take a relaxing "vacation" -- without the time and stress of travel - and I found it! Carter's home is utterly charming - it is on a tiny quiet dead-end lane with an amazing view. I would buy this home in a minute - it is truly a little gem - I haven't seen anything else like it in Seattle. The immediate neighborhood is quiet and because the house is nestled above an expanse of greenbelt it feels like it is out in the countryside. A few miles away are the shops and restaurants of West Seattle - a charming "small town" within a big city. Our host Carter was a sweetheart - he also lives in Seattle and he was quick to reach out to check in on us and answer any questions by text and email right away. He also considerately placed directions around the house to guide us. The next time I have guests I am going to rent Carter's house and have my guests stay at my place while I relive my "weekend at Cinque Terre" - it was just that special.
