Property Description
First time on the market in more than 30 years, this cherished 50's era floating home with dedicated parking space offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Seattle's iconic waterfront lifestyle on coveted Portage Bay. Affectionately known as *Fleetenhus*, this quintessential Scandinavian-inspired floating cottage captures the simple beauty of life on the water, where every day begins and ends surrounded by the sights and sounds of the bay. The efficiently designed two-bedroom, one-bath home has been refreshed with a new roof, fresh interior & exterior paint, new carpet, and new appliances, creating a welcoming retreat ready to enjoy today while offering the opportunity to personalize over time. What truly sets this home apart is its exceptional relationship to the water. Generous wraparound overwater decks create an expansive outdoor living environment that feels immersed in Portage Bay, offering abundant space for dining, entertaining, relaxing, or simply watching changing light dance across the water. A small boat slip with channel access makes it easy to head out for a paddle or cruise. Ownership includes the cooperative dock slip and deeded parking space. Rarely does a floating home with this combination of history, character, generous outdoor living, coveted location with room to expand become available. An exceptional opportunity to become part of one of Seattle's most treasured waterfront communities with easy commute options via H2O, 520 or I5!
