This is a very spacious home that accommodated or group of 7 well. We were two families with kids 8-12 yrs old. It was nice to have split-level living. The two bedrooms on the 3rd floor and two bedrooms on 1st floor offered each family privacy. My husband enjoys cooking so the very nice gas range and the outdoor grill were put to good use; as were the quality cookware.
Location was great. Don't be distracted by the North East location on the map. It only took 5 min to get on I-5 and then about 10 minutes to downtown. It can take longer to get to downtown from the center of the city than it did from this home. Location was surprisingly convenient! But, even better, you have access to so much more of what Seattle has to offer! I was literally 10 minutes from Green Lake, Matthews and Carkeek Beach, Gas Works, the Freemont area, and Husky Stadium "Go Dawgs!".
Heads up: I don't think this is an ideal house for anyone who travels with slightly messy individuals or those who are not detail-oriented. This is a well cared for home with a fair amount of rules/suggestions and the expectations align with that. Also, there is a house just behind this home, sharing the backyard space. So if you require extensive privacy this may not be ideal. However, we were not at all bothered by those residing in that home. We may have seen them once.
Enjoyed the home and would recommend to others.
