Captain's Cottage, historic cottage on corner lot.

The quiet and cozy Captain’s Cottage is an homage to the unique history of Ballard, where a large population of Scandinavians worked in the boat building industry at the turn of the 20th century. Inside this 1915 cottage showcases many treasures from the Captain’s seafaring travels. The house is situated on a corner lot with a front and back yard, where one can sit under the shade of fruit trees or take a walk to explore the neighborhood full of great restaurants, cafes and breweries with outdoor seating. **If you have mobility issues please note steps are required to enter the property and access the bathroom.
