Seattle's oldest neighborhood is a hang-out hot spot
Considered by some to be Seattle's oldest neighborhood, Georgetown, set along the Duwamish Waterway, was founded in 1851. Despite being surrounded by freight train tracks, Interstate 5, a private airport and an industrial district, it has pockets of comfortable residential streets and is a hot spot for independent shops, cafes, bars and restaurants. "It's grown in popularity in recent years and is one of the most visited hang-out spots for residents of surrounding neighborhoods," says Geoff Hill, managing broker with Keller Williams Greater Seattle. A top-producing agent, he's been a Realtor since 2006.
Boutiques and art, Georgetown Trailer Park Mall
Georgetown's retail is all about local business, with boutique shops and a focus on art and design. Koplin Del Rio and studio e are two of the neighborhood's art galleries. A destination for quirky shopping, Georgetown Trailer Park Mall, located near the airport, is a collection of small businesses in vintage trailers. The mall is one of the Georgetown Flea Market locations. "The flea market is a pet- and family friendly gathering of over 75 local artists and artisans," Hill says. "There's original art, antiques, handmade goods, and one-of-a-kind vintage clothing." A stop on the monthly art walk Art Attack, the mall also hosts the Bizarre Bazaar Holiday Market each November and springtime tasting event Georgetown Bites! Other area events include October's Georgetown Haunted History Tour, a multiday walking tour held annually for over 20 years. The Georgetown Carnival takes place in June and features live music, a cake walk, a beer and wine garden and much more. Not to be missed are the power tool drag races.

Beverages galore, Airport Way eateries
Beverage-based businesses include Georgetown Brewing, Tinte Cellars, Jellyfish Brewing Company, Georgetown Liquor Company and numerous bars. "Georgetown is especially popular with connoisseurs of craft beer and delicious Mexican food," Hill says.The main drag on Airport Way has a variety of cuisines and cafes. Eater Seattle recommends Donburi Station's Japanese comfort food and The Corson Building for communal multicourse dinners. The restaurant, housed in a 1910 Italianate, has indoor dining, patio seating and garden settings. "Just a few blocks south is one of Seattle's most popular cake shops, Deep Sea Sugar and Salt," Hill says. The business is open for slices and cupcakes; whole cakes can be ordered in advance.On Sixth Avenue, the Conscious Eatery has an array of sandwiches, offers vegetarian options, and gives patrons the satisfaction of knowing that for each meal sold, another is donated to a local nonprofit.

A haunted mansion, Craftsmans and townhouses
Many single-family homes are found between Corson Avenue South and Ellis Avenue South. Here, on Carleton Avenue, is the Gessner Mansion, a privately owned historic property. Also known as the Georgetown Castle, this turreted Queen Anne Victorian has a sordid backstory and is believed by many to be haunted. Georgetown houses generally come without such creepy credentials. Early 20th-century Craftsman bungalows are particularly common. Other options are contemporary builds from the 2010s, many of which are duplex-style townhouses. Real estate prices range from about $600,000 to $870,000. "Georgetown is a bit of a hidden gem for those who've grown weary of over-crowded and over-priced options in more centrally located neighborhoods," says Hill, contrasting the neighborhood to Capitol Hill, Belltown and Fremont.
Considered haunted and nicknamed Georgetown Castle, the Gessner Mansion is a local icon.
