SeattleAfloat.com: Life Afloat In Seattle

One of the three most sought after floating homes in Portage Bay is available!!! Just listed by floating home expert and Portage Bay resident this is one you want to see.

Designed by architect Gerald Van Slyck in the late 1950s to early 1960s, this distinctive floating home captures the essence of midcentury design with a NW sensibility. Vaulted ceilings, clerestory windows, and generous skylights welcome shifting sunlight that dances through the rooms & reflects off the water, giving the space a luminous, ever-changing quality. Outdoor areas frame tranquil Portage Bay views, while the intimate four-home co-op dock offers a genuine sense of community. Includes one dedicated parking space & a 43-foot moorage slip - a timeless blend of architecture, light, & waterfront serenity. Second from the end, this is your perfect retreat from the daily city life putting you absolutely in touch w/ nature at its best. $1,480,000

Love it when my toes coordinate with a boat. Showing an incredible marina in Westlake and saw this cutie moored up there. Are you interested in living on the water in Lake Union. This property has an expansive waterfront home, five office spaces at the water’s edge, and over 40 boat slips (including 8 large end slips!!!). All fee simple. So much opportunity. Shoot me a message for more info.
