We are a family of four looking to rent our wonderful house in Seattle’s Green Lake/Tangletown neighborhood while we are on sabbatical from the University of Washington in the first half of 2027. Our home would be a great fit for a couple or family looking for short-term housing while on sabbatical, renovating their home, exploring longer-term housing options in Seattle, or for other reasons seeking a short term rental home. We love our house! It is a classic Craftsman bungalow with finished basement, extensively and beautifully renovated by JAS Design-Build in 2022-2023. The house is a short walk from the Tangletown, Wallingford, and Green Lake commercial districts, and is ideal situated for commuting via car, bike, or public transit to many locations in the greater Seattle area.

We love to cook and designed our 2022/23 renovation around the kitchen. - Powder room - "Command center" with cubbies and jacket hooks for storage and organization.
