Coffee shop in Belltown Seattle Washington

(206) 910-2300 2231 Second Avenue Seattle, Washington

When you walk into this quaint coffee shop located in Belltown Seattle the first thing you see is the unique red serving counter. You are greeted not by an employee but by the owners themselves who will then take your order and make your coffee themselves.

If you are a coffee addict as I am (and a self proclaimed connoisseur and expert) then you know that not all coffee shops are made the same. Lavender and Rose Mocha(free of thorns) are some of the specialty drinks that you may delight in.

The owners of the shop Ben, Jesse and Chris have a secret (don’t they all) roast whose origins they would defend with their lives. The entire inside of this coffee shop is littered by local artists displaying seattle’s diversity. All the art is of course for sale (so buy some they are starving).

Once you grab this home brewed gourmet coffee relax by the window and watch people walk by or get cozy in a comfortable leather couch.

This shop in Belltown also has tables and free wifi for those students that require coffee to complete their overdue homework. Or work on that soon to be famous novel that you will never really finish.

As you close your laptop that you where really just pretending to use anyway, you can grab a board game and be social! Clue, Quelf, game of life and Risk are some of the entertaining games available.

In this most illustrious Belltown Coffee Shop you may grab a cupcake (you can work it off later) and a danish made by locals. Their are many other shops around that you may frequent (ok I mean bars where you can get drunk).

Bedlam is open untill 3:00 in the morning on friday and Saturday for all you drunks that need to sober up before you drive home.

So if your in the area or want to poke your head into some seattle culture then for the love of god stop by Bedlam Coffee Shop located in Belltown Seattle, WA

Downtown Seattle condos

Belltown condosWant to see some interiors from my recent Downtown Seattle condo and Belltown condo tours? I always take snapshots on tour and then send a wrap up report to the buyers if we don't see anything they fall in love with or if they want to take another look a what we saw. After four or five condos and walking around on what I call the Aerobic Downtown Seattle real estate tours, the pictures help. This one was from a unit in Cristalla in early Belltown (corner of 2nd & Lenora). I took some of 98 Union in Downtown Seattle as well as Royal Crest in Belltown, but I liked this shot the best. We love our hardwoods in Seattle - even with real estate in the air. I am happy to share if you want to see any other photos of some of my tours.

Downtown Seattle condos are surprisingly affordable if you are willing to go low square footage and Belltown condos are another great option for being right in city.

We are happy to help you find your perfect Downtown Seattle living situation - feel free to shoot any questions this way!

Gallery belltownBelltown real estate: Just North of Downtown Seattle, you can find some affordable condo options with big views. Here are some Puget Sound views I took from the Gallery condo building in Seattle's Belltown neighborhood. The Gallery Building does have some great views - both of Puget Sound and the Space Needle, but I really hope a lot of research was done by the buyers who bought at the Gallery auction the other night.

Belltown condos - checking out the area. Careful attention to height restrictions and building plans is required when buying Seattle condos in a neighborhood that is changing as much as Belltown is - and at such a rapid pace. One of the units I looked at had expansive views, but I know very well based on an article I saw in the paper weeks back that there is a building going up that will block a major part of the seascape. Sure, they will still have a view and there is no certainty with anything we do, but at least get all the facts.

There are great views of the Puget Sound and Downtown Seattle in Belltown:

Gallery Auction Results: Belltown Real Estate Unveiled

Seattle Realtor Courtney Cooper Seattle Real Estate, Seattle Washington: Real Estate Agent in Seattle, WA

Looking for Belltown Gallery Auction Results? The Gallery Auction has long been one of Belltown's most anticipated events. It was astounding to witness the sheer volume of dollars that were spent on these places!

Gallery Auction results surprising for many! It was extremely interesting to see the mass exodus of hopeful would be Gallery Auction bidders who thought they might get a steal. There were some good deals last night, but nothing I couldn't have negotiated up front in a normal purchase and sale without the pressure of the auction itself. It just goes back to my earlier statement: "Do not be afraid to put in an offer that may not be socially acceptable." In the case of the Gallery before the auction, they may have taken it based on auction result numbers I saw last night.

So here are the Gallery Auction results as I recorded them personally, so I should put in a disclaimer that I am human and may have made a mistake. By the way, these are in auction bid order:

423 791 $397,500 $195,000 ***

*In my opinion, the winning bidder for unit 721 probably got one of the best deals of the day. Although the unit is right next to the owner's lounge and I have heard that there is quite a bit of horizontal sound traveling in Gallery, this was a phenomenal price to get into that location!

*** At this point, I had to accompany my bidder out of the room, but I will update later with results from the last four auction results.

Gallery Auction Results Wrap Up -

Overall, I would say Gallery raked in far more dollar per square foot than I would expect them to have. I would say this proves that Seattle real estate is alive and well and that Belltown real estate is still moving! The condo market has definitely changed and we will be seeing more of these types of sales in my opinion based on the backlog of inventory.
