What This House Offers
Rainier Beach Waterfront Home Rental | 4 Bed • 2.75 Bath • 3,730 SF
Save money on moorage fees and gas with a level 2 EV charger! Waterfront home for rent on... the shores of Lake Washington in South Seattle. Offering 3,730 square feet of living space, this unique home combines mid-century architecture with spectacular lake views and rare, private waterfront amenities.
Set on 50 feet of waterfront, the home features sheltered deep-water moorage, a private boat lift tucked beneath the home, and direct access to the lake—for paddleboarding, kayaking, or relaxing by the water.
Floor-to-ceiling windows frame panoramic lake views from nearly every room while filling the home with natural light. Original mid-century details—including exposed beam construction, vaulted ceilings, floating stairs, skylights, cedar-lined walls and ceilings, hardwood floors, custom built-ins, and a sandstone fireplace—create a warm, sophisticated atmosphere.
The spacious kitchen features a large center island, breakfast bar, new appliances, abundant cabinetry, a wet bar, and an adjacent dining area overlooking the water.
The home includes four bedrooms and 2.75 bathrooms. The primary suite offers a peaceful sitting area with lake views, a walk-in closet, and an en-suite bathroom.
Additional living spaces include a loft overlooking the lake, a family room opening through French doors to the waterfront deck, and multiple outdoor decks that provide the perfect setting for morning coffee or evening sunsets.
