2042 Franklin Avenue E # A

A rare Eastlake find that feels like a private retreat. Tucked along one of the neighborhood’s most coveted streets, this in-city cottage-style townhouse blends charm, function, and an unbeatable location. Inside, hardwood floors, designer tile, A/C and a bright, efficient layout make the home live larger than expected. The main-level bedroom is its own private escape with an en-suite bath, brand new stacked washer and dryer, and direct access to a fully fenced backyard with a treehouse feel, low-maintenance landscaping, and storage shed. Upstairs, the stylish kitchen features slab granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a newer dishwasher, updated sink hardware, and a new garbage disposal, all flowing seamlessly into the living and dining areas, plus a convenient half bath. The top level offers flexible loft space ideal for a home office, guest space, or creative setup. Bathrooms have been thoughtfully refreshed with newer toilets. Finish the day on the rooftop deck with peekaboo Lake Union and city skyline views. Off-street parking with alley access adds everyday ease, while the location puts you just steps from Eastlake favorites, Lake Union, and quick access to South Lake Union, downtown, and UW. Pre-inspected for added peace of mind. No HOA!
