Embrace Simple Living with this Cottage’s Easy Layout and Timeless Design
One of this cottage’s top features is its smart layout and design. This home has no wasted space, and yet offers easy flow. The entry and living room seamlessly transition into the kitchen, which effortlessly flows out onto the deck and backyard.

The west side of the home is where this cottage’s bedrooms and bathroom are tucked away. We love that this home’s entire layout still feels cohesive even while providing privacy and separation of space. You can set up a home office where you can work away in peace and quiet, or hang out in the living room and be a part of the day’s happenings. You get to choose!
Farm to Table Flow: Large Kitchen Transitions Right into the Sweet Backyard
This spacious kitchen is ready for all that life brings your way. New appliances promise that this cottage comes with everything our modern Diva Dwellers expect. A Samsung refrigerator, a Bosche dishwasher, a double oven range, GE gas, and GE range hood all ensure efficiency. Whip up homemade feasts and enjoy the bounty from your garden as often as possible. The kitchen even offers built-in seating, but you can easily up your guest count by adding your own dining table and a few extra chairs.
French doors swing open into your backyard oasis. A gorgeous deck overlooks the backyard, and you can set up comfy patio furniture and a grill to cook up delicious eats at your next barbecue get-together. The backyard is your own haven for entertaining, but this dynamic space can be put to work, too. Our Diva Dwellers loved home beekeeping from this space, and you’ll also find tons of delicious edible plants and herbs here as well. There’s a sour cherry tree, blueberries, huckleberries, sage, rosemary, oolong tea, lavender, echinacea, and hops. Put your green thumb to work and add your own favorites into the mix!
As evening approaches enjoy great views and sunsets over the Olympic Mountains. You can also gather around the fire pit to roast marshmallows and stay toasty warm.

How to Buy a Home in Seattle: The Entire Process in Brief
Let’s get down and dirty. Owning a home in Seattle is an amazing experience and it can be fun. Do not listen to all of those cranky folks who think Seattle is not what it used to be and a middle-income owner cannot afford to buy a home in Seattle. Strap in, get yourself some strong Seattle coffee and learn how to be a smart and savvy home buyer in Seattle.
Steps For Buying a Home in Seattle
- Find Your Guide: Find an agent that is super savvy and will be your ultimate navigator.
- Choose Your Priorities: Size, Condition, Or Location?
- Home Buyer Intake Process: Schedule a sit-down meeting with you and your real estate team to dive into what you want in a home.
- Financing: Get your financial house in order.
- Big Search: The big home search in Seattle
- Making an Offer: Know what you need and how to prepare yourself to make an offer.
- You Are In Contract: You’ve signed on the dotted line. Now… the hard work really starts.
- Inspecting Your Home: What to look for, how to hire an inspector, and how to respond to the inspection.
- Reviewing The Title Report: The title report is often the most overlooked portion of the buyer’s review.
- Reviewing the HOA/Resale Certificate (for Condos): …Also an overlooked portion of the buyer’s review process.
- Appraisal Process: Most homes are purchased with a home loan. The appraisal determines the final value by your lender for your home.
- Final Loan Approval: All kinds of things can come up during the final loan approval process, so be prepared.
- Final Two Weeks of the Process: Walkthrough, inspection resolution, and (for god’s sake) do not make a huge purchase on a credit card.
- Signing Your Final Homeowner Documents: You made it!
- Closing Day: You get the keys and access to your home.
This is just a starting point, and we have so much more to share about the home buying process. Browse our Home Buyer page for a comprehensive home buying education.
