A modest "mid century classic" bungalow in the oldest neighborhood in Seattle, near the locks where boats of all sizes go out to the Puget Sound and where salmon go upstream to spawn. House is in quiet neighborhood, our 6-year-old Chesapeake Bay Retriever is friendly, energetic, eager to please and a bit neurotic. Needs to have human company. Seattle is beautiful in fall, Ballard is like a small town, near marina and a ferry ride to the beautiful Olympic Peninsula. I am a gardener, writer and designer.
