About this home
Modern design meets sustainable luxury in this exceptional freestanding corner townhome in Columbia City. Built by Dwell Development and boasting a coveted 5-Star Built Green certification, this home blends stylish architecture with eco-conscious living—surrounded by lush evergreen and perennial gardens that create a true urban oasis. Inside, polished concrete floors, radiant heating, triple-pane windows, mini-split A/C, and an HRV system deliver year-round comfort and efficiency. Fresh interior paint and refreshed exterior paint and staining add to the home’s crisp, move-in-ready appeal. The light-filled gourmet island kitchen is a dream for any home chef with seamless indoor-outdoor flow. There’s also space for raised garden beds, perfect for cultivating your own green retreat. The upper level offers 2 bedrooms, laundry, full spa-like bathroom, and terrace overlooking the community gardens. Practicality shines with an oversized one-car garage and an additional uncovered designated parking space. Located in the vibrant Rainier Vista community with access to a pea patch, park, and playground, all just minutes from the Link Light Rail, this home delivers the perfect balance of tranquility, connectivity, and modern living.
Columbia City, located between Mount Baker and Rainier Beach, is a historic and walkable Seattle neighborhood with a classic main street and a strong arts-and-food scene. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Rainier Ave S and S Edmunds St intersection, where indie restaurants, coffee counters, small galleries, and late-night music spots line the sidewalks. The Royal Room, Columbia City Theater, and Ark Lodge Cinemas act as cultural pillars with a steady calendar of shows and screenings. Early-1900s storefronts and brick facades frame Rainier Avenue, while side streets shift to Craftsman homes and compact apartment buildings. Genesee Park and Lake Washington’s shoreline add open space and water views. Link light rail at Columbia City Station ties the district to the rest of the city.
