Bellevue: Sunsets and Skyscrapers

I heard from the showing agent that this condo gets great sunset views and I don’t doubt it. Western facing windows in the biggest rooms (living room and master) even give a view of downtown Seattle—at least the tallest buildings, from what I could see. And the location feels more like a residential street (tall trees, circular drive entry) than an urban city block.

The kitchen and bathrooms have been updated with pleasing, popular choices (slab granite, stainless and tile) and the mirrored walls in both the living room and master bedroom make these long, big rooms seem even bigger. A fireplace and separate laundry room add to the appeal.

I liked the entry, too. No steps, just a locked gate that opens to an exterior hallway, and the unit’s entrance is right there. Pets are permitted, “subject to restrictions.” Parking is assigned in the garage below. And located one block off Bellevue Way and Main Street, you’ve got all the downtown Bellevue hotspots within reach.
