About This Home

As of September 2013

Location, Location, Location. So close to vibrant downtown Columbia City with its great restaurants, jazz club, theater, bakery, cinema and Farmer’s Market. PCC has broken ground on their new large grocery just down the street. Very close to Lake Washington and Genesee Off-Leash Dog Park. Sits up high with views of downtown, Mt. Baker, a peek of the lake and overlooks Genesee Park from all three levels. Loft-like architecture - high ceilings & lots of light. 1-car garage and off-street parking.
