Name: Tom
Location: Lake Washington, Seattle
Size & Type: 350 sq. ft. condo
Tom says: Here are some pictures of my tiny 350 sq ft condo on Lake Washington in Seattle -- which I'm selling alas! I don't know whether they will be of interest or not. It's in a no-frills 60s building with a neat mid-century feel built on pilings over the water. If you jump out the window, you get wet!

Cont'd: We did a mild remodel on the kitchen and bath, put some wool carpet in it and called it home.

Your favorite element: Incredible to be able to swim from one's own dock in one of the best neighborhoods in Seattle for under 250k. Very sad to be selling it.

Seattle, represent! (Is this that neat building kinda by 520, where all the units are angled to have an undivided view of the lake?)
I like how you've used yellow and orange throughout the space. It compliments the wood-tones nicely. On a gray day, I'm sure the space feels cozy for it. On a good day, the sharp contrast of the oranges and the blues would draw the eye right where you want it--out over the lake.
I like that you left the kitchen enclosed in the remodel. I'm not much of a chef, myself, and my biggest pet-peeve with some studios is that they make you stare at the kitchen all day long.
It's not the height of style, but it looks healthy and livable. Good luck finding a new space!
Very cute! I know the building too, it's right next to Madison Beach, one of the best chill spots you can find in the summer!
Good luck with your sale!
