COPY OF THE FLYER
I have a great friend of mine that invited us all over to his townhome in Queen Anne for a Superbowl Party on Sunday. I would never turn down a Superbowl invite from him for three reasons:
Back in the summer of 2008 when we started looking for homes, he always seemed to have the “perfect” place in mind. During the time we looked, he struggled with leaving his unique waterfront floating home on Portage Bay. It didn’t surprise me as I would have loved to live at that place as well. Incredible views, great floor plan, and perfect setting for summer social events. To that end, the search for the right place continued.
Over the course of a couple months, we had looked at 3-4 houses when we stumbled upon the McGraw Street Townhomes built by Howland Homes. The first features that stood out to me were the size, the quality of build, the rooftop decks and the exterior of the building. This particular unit featured the following:
It didn’t surprise me when he decided it was the right place for him. At the time, most Seattle developers had just finished a cycle of townhome after townhome of the same exact Craftsman build. In my mind there was nothing wrong with them, but it just wasn’t the right fit for this friend/client. What made the McGraw unit so unique in addition to the list above is that it was constructed with good intentions. Each room is spacious, the kitchen is suited for entertaining and the rooftop deck takes full advantage of the view. With over 1,714 square feet, this 3 bedroom 3.25 bath simply put was a perfect place for him.
Lesson learned, don’t settle for what you don’t want, just start looking for what you do want. Inevitably, you’ll find the house that is right for you.
A big thanks to my buddy who threw a great party.

It was brought to my attention by Chris Pardo (The Architect) of the project. He does some pretty amazing work. I was impressed simply by the exterior, but when you flip through the pictures, you notice the interiors are pretty incredible as well. (see here)
A few of the features include:

I had two things inspire me this week to post about in-city townhomes. First, NY Magazine had a great piece in their Home Design Fall 2010. The second, was an announcement by Washington Square in Bellevue.
When Washington Square broke the news that they would be running a lease-to-own program on their townhome models, it made me wonder what the overall popularity is with in-city vertical living.
In many other markets, like New York, Boston, San Francisco and Vancouver, townhome/brownstones are incredibly popular. Seattle lacks the same urban density as these markets, but over time it’s likely we will continue to see more in-city options. So what are you thoughts?
Here are my pros and cons:

Did I miss anything? If you live in one, it would be great to have your opinion.

I wrote about these townhomes a few weeks back. At the time, my clients had one of them of under contract. Since then, they have closed and have been very happy since moving in. Out of four homes, two are available. The best one available without question is 2351 “B”. It has a master suite with rain shower, spacious kitchen and incredible rooftop deck. If you are in the market for a townhome, I would definitely check it out.

This townhouse is worth a look. My clients purchased in the same development. Out of the two left, the “A” unit is my favorite. If you are looking for urban living and brand new construction, you can’t go wrong. Check out the rooftop deck as well. Unreal.

We have invited many of the neighboring homes, but thought it would be nice to extend the invitation to all of you as well. If you can make it, stop by and say “hello”.

My wife and I joined some friends yesterday for an afternoon BBQ in Seattle. The house sits on the Northwest slope of Queen Anne and has a beautiful rooftop deck with panoramic views from Ballard to Alki. Besides really enjoying our friends and the “rare” afternoon sunshine lately in Seattle , I was enamored by the views. It reminded me what made it so special when he purchased the home in May of 2008.
It is lesson that we need to live by in all of our purchases of real estate. It always pays dividends to buy a home with the “IT” factor. The “IT” factor can be explained by the home having something so special that (it) is undeniably the determining factor for the purchase. For example, it may be a big West facing view, a remarkable kitchen, a enormous master suite with walk-in closet , or maybe its a functional layout. Bottom line, you must remove emotion and add strategy when making a purchase. Focus on the most important elements of a home that make it special. Make sure it has the “IT”. Kudos to our friend that made a GREAT purchase.
Here are a few shots of the remarkable views.
