Tucked away in the Tobira building, this 692-square-foot west-facing condo offers beautiful views of the Puget Sound, Downtown Seattle, and stunning sunsets. Updates include fresh paint, brand new carpet, and a newer water heater, so you can move right in without worrying about a thing! Additional highlights include a balcony, and a parking space that’s listed as one space but has been used to park 2 medium-sized cars tandem. Located at 108 5th Ave S 611 Seattle, WA 98104 and merely blocks to light rail stations, bus lines, a huge variety of incredible restaurants and bars, excellent shopping, the stadiums and much more, this condo is listed for $425,000. 

When you arrive home, the Tobira building’s stylish lobby greets you, and as soon as you step inside this warm and inviting condo, the layout effortlessly unfolds. A well-designed floor plan makes the most of the space and lets this condo live large, and the main living area is wonderfully spacious. The balcony offers the opportunity to get an even better view of the city scene that surrounds you, and in addition to views of the Puget Sound, breathtaking sunsets, and towering skyscrapers in downtown, you also have a prominent view of the iconic 1914-built Smith Tower in Pioneer Square.

In the open kitchen, a smart design means you don’t have to sacrifice function, and granite counters, stainless steel appliances, and eye-catching details (like artistic light fixtures and modern cabinet hardware) all lend themselves well to the classic yet contemporary aesthetic. Bar-style seating is perfect for city living—entertain in style when you have guests over, and enjoy having a spot to sip on your morning coffee before heading out the door.  

A bonus den expands your potential even more, and you could use this extra square footage to set up your office or a home gym! In this condo’s bedroom, large windows let you enjoy the view as you’re snuggled up in bed, and built-in closet space makes it easy to stay organized. And finally, the bathroom offers design that matches the finishes you’ll find in the kitchen for a cohesive aesthetic throughout.
