Amazing and serene view house, art deco charmer, fully restored
Casa Florence is a beautiful 1936 house located on a serene bluff with expansive westward ocean and island views.
Named after Ms. Florence, who lived in the house over 60 year, and at 102 years old decided to move into a smaller place.
The house sits far back from the street on a view bluff. There is ample street parking. 20 wide and gradual stairs through the park-like front yard bring you to this amazing setting.
The main floor has a large living room with enormous picture windows to the view. A beautiful dining room also allows access to the 150 sq ft entertaining deck. The fully appointed kitchen has all the dishes and equipment necessary to cook the meal of your dreams, or to spread out a take-out feast.
The grand staircase leads up the large master bedroom with seating area and view windows. The 2nd bedroom is also upstairs, its flexible configuration has two twin beds which convert to full sized beds. This is also a view bedroom. The spa-like bathroom is also upstairs. It includes a large deep vintage tub for soaking and a separate shower.
The house is a westward facing bluff. Set far back from the street, with city forest land below it, the location is serene. Casa Florence offers stunning 180 degree ocean views of the Puget Sound and its silently gliding ferry boats and ship traffic, islands across the water and the Olympic Mountains.
And the sunsets! The house faces west and golden sunlight fills the house every afternoon and evening. Each day has its own special sunset.
Privacy - nearly all windows face the view, giving guests excellent privacy and opportunity to enjoy the view at the same time.
Sorry, no dogs. No emotional support animals either. Only service animals that have been extensively trained to perform specific tasks.

Nicely appointed and very comfortable for a 3 nights stay. Quiet location with a notable view of the water.Would certainly consider staying here again when we visit relatives in the area.
We enjoyed our stay here. Appreciated it more every day. Would love to stay here again.Things I wish were better:-Master bedroom could have a king size bed.-There should be an antenna on the television. I would have loved have had a relaxing Sunday in the house watching a football and enjoying the property.Highly recommended.
This property is such a delight to stay at. Beautiful views of the Olympics, ferry boats and puget sound. Everything you need in the kitchen to make it feel like home. Will definitely come back to stay again.
great little location in West Seattle. Within striking distance of downtown Seattle (via water taxi) and within walking distance of West Seattle eateries, etc, but far enough away to avoid all the noise of night life. Recommend it highly and will stay here again when in the area.
This house was comfortable with lovely views of the Sound. We loved the quiet neighborhood and the fact that it gave daisy access to downtown Seattle. Would definitely stay there again if traveling to the area.
Such a charming home with gorgeous views of the sound. I looked forward to arriving here at the end of each day to relax and soak in the atmosphere.
Thank you for an excellent experience from start to finish!
We've stayed in many older homes and this was one of the better ones as it was well heated. The trampoline was a nice touch and the kids loved that. I did think the home was closer to the ocean (15-20min walk), so clarifying that would be nice, but otherwise a good stay.
Had a great time. Able to watch the boats/ferries/ships pass by, and the Olympic Mtn range was the backdrop. Nice drive down Alki Beach to seafood diners, and lots of dining/shopping along California Ave.
The house is beautiful but comfortable. Very clean and well stocked with necessary dishes and such in kitchen. The view is absolutely amazing of the mountains and the water. The owner was very good at answering questions quickly. Overall, would definitely stay here again!
Had such an amazing time. The house is perfectly located in a quiet neighborhood and gorgeous view of the bay. We spent 90% of our time on the deck. We even got to see the Northern Lights.
I would come back in a heartbeat. One of my best experiences yet.
This rental is highly recommended. Wife and daughter loved the area's relaxed atmosphere. Property owner was very courteous and communicated well.
The internet and TV services were exceptional.
You have to try some of the area restaurants, and the Frensh Bakery.
Enjoyed the view in the evening for 9 days. Sunset is awesome.
The house is cute, and the view is AMAZING! Our host thought of absolutely everything a guest might need. The neighborhood is quiet, with shops and restaurants close by. I highly recommend Bakery Nouveau. Alki Beach is a short walk/drive down the hill. Downtown Seattle is about 15 minutes away by car. Just book it, you won't be disappointed!
