THE RESIDENCES AT FAIRVIEW
The Residences on Fairview is a limited collection of 21 attached residences on fee-simple lakeside lots. It consists of about five acres, over 1,000 feet of waterfront, and includes the marina, the marina club, offices, 12 floating home sites and the 21 lakeside residences. The Residences create a “quintessential” Seattle place with iconic views of Gasworks Park, float planes, crew shells, sailboats, and a connection to the water – a celebration of the outdoors, in the middle of the city, just ten minutes from the heart of downtown Seattle.
The Residences are located on Wards Cove on the only 5-acre waterfront site that allows for a contiguous shoreline residential development with panoramic views to this degree. From the beginning, the design and development team focused on creating a highly crafted, boutique, multi-family development, establishing a new landmark on the eastern shore of Lake Union.
Living areas are on the upper floors, both indoor and outdoor, with guest bedrooms or home office entries on the ground level. The kitchen and living areas are located on the third floor, above bedrooms and office spaces. Open plan design maximizes the spaces and encourages views from all rooms. Open stairs also provide seamless space from floor to floor.
The three level, two or three bedroom plus den homes range from 2,500 to more than 3,000 sf and may be personalized to the owner’s specification. No two units are exactly the same, while working off a basic kit of parts.
