5440 Leary Way NW # 614

Two parking spaces included in Ballard. That alone is worth a look, but this one-bedroom-plus-DEN has more going for it. The chef's kitchen with breakfast bar is genuinely spacious, the living room fireplace makes winter evenings easy, and the southeast-facing balcony gets the kind of light plants and people both appreciate. The den flexes as an office, guest space, or reading room. A walk-in closet, extra laundry room storage, controlled access garage, and garbage included round out the package. Then there's the location. Ballard puts you on foot to some of the best new restaurants in the city, live music, coffee, shopping, and four grocery stores. The Ballard Farmers Market runs every Sunday, year-round. When you need to get out of the neighborhood, Highway 99 and I-5 are minutes away, and the RapidRide D runs frequent service downtown.
