Located at 513 1st Ave N in Seattle's Lower Queen Anne neighborhood, this efficiently designed one-bedroom, one-bathroom unit offers a thoughtful layout that maximizes every square foot. Light wood-tone flooring runs throughout, creating a warm, cohesive aesthetic across the entire space. The entry hallway sets a clean, modern tone with crisp white walls, a recessed utility panel, and a round gold-framed mirror that adds a stylish accent. The hallway leads naturally into the main living area, where an open-plan kitchen and sleeping space share a generously sized room bathed in natural light from large windows overlooking Seattle's cityscape and surrounding greenery. The kitchen is outfitted with stainless steel appliances — including a range, microwave, and refrigerator — complemented by light wood upper cabinetry, dark lower cabinets, and a subway tile backsplash. The bedroom area features a sliding barn door closet with matte black hardware, adding an industrial-modern touch to the otherwise light and airy space. The bathroom is well-appointed with a dark espresso wood vanity topped with a white countertop, a large wall mirror with bright overhead lighting, and consistent light wood flooring that ties the space together. Clean lines and neutral tones throughout give this unit a polished, contemporary feel.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
