Tucked into a beautiful garden of lush greenery, The Ranch offers a quiet, calming respite in the midst of the best of Seattle. It's the perfect retreat at the end of each day, offering landscaped grounds where you can dine alfresco, watch your children play in the yard, and unwind in the shade of lofty Douglas firs.

This home is located in the Wedgwood neighborhood of Seattle, a location that gives you easy access to the entire north side of the city. The University of Washington, Green Lake, the Woodland Park Zoo, and the shores of Lake Washington are all within three miles. Venture just a bit farther and you can find yourself downtown (seven miles) or catching a spectacular sunset at Golden Gardens Park (five miles).

Step inside to be greeted by a living space full of mid-century style, where walls of picture windows bring in the beauty of the natural setting. You'd never know you were in the city as you recline on the sofa to stream movies, play board games at the dining room table, or step into the kitchen to get started on dinner.

A number of little touches make this home particularly special. There's a dedicated office nook where you can log onto the WiFi with a view of the garden. Families with children will also feel welcome, thanks to the provided high chair, booster seat, baby gate, kids' bikes, and Pack 'N Play. Leave the day's clothes to refresh in the washer/dryer in the basement, sit outside in the breezeway with a glass of wine, and retire to two comfortable bedrooms for a restful night's sleep.

    This is our 2nd time staying in this property and we will return again. It’s a great space for our 11 year old and our dog. Our son, who lives in Seattle, spends a lot of time with us there. Love it!

    This mid-century modern home is exceptionally peaceful and private. The grounds are beautifully designed and kept. You can sit outside many different spots - shade and sun, tables or recliner - and enjoy the trees and the garden. You feel like you are in a very private spot even though this is a busy neighborhood, because of the way the house is set back from the road and surrounded by trees and lovely hedges. Truly exceptional space outdoors, and a comfortable and thoughtfully appointed home as well. For us, having ramps at the back door was especially helpful as I was recovering from surgery while there. We had a totally wonderful experience at the Ranch!

    We lived in Wedgwood and adore the neighborhood. This felt like we were back home (but nicer)! The lot is amazing and private. The house is well laid out. The furnishings are lovely. Our daughter especially love the pod chair! We look forward to our next stay.

    The yard was awesome, clean, and well maintained. The home had lots of large windows and was generally aesthetically pleasing. The carpet seemed very old/worn and smelled somewhat which was surprising for the price of the home. There was a sign requesting shoes not be worn inside but when my wife walked around the house in white socks they got dirty so we felt better wearing slippers inside. The house seemed to have an “old” smell in general. The bed was extremely uncomfortable for my wife and I. Overall, was a good experience but for the price, I had higher expectations.

    We were so fortunate to find the ranch! It was close to where we wanted to be and such a beautiful property! We enjoyed a lot of outdoor time- coffee in the morning, cocktails in the evening. Gardens and grounds were beautiful- amazingly peaceful! This property must be very special to the owners! The beds were kind of hard and the carpet shampoo was overwhelming when we first walked in but cleared it out quickly and enjoyed our stay!

    Booked the Ranch to help my brother convalesce after a surgery. It was a perfect quiet spot. The grounds are wonderful. Accomodations were great. The property manager was responsive on a few minor issues. Would stay here again!

    We loved the comfort and style of the home. The secluded property allowing for wide open windows to view the manicured landscape made for a very country in the big city feel. Also the home was well equipped with everything needed down to a dog bed which was also loved by our beagle.

    The home is located in a densely populated suburban neighborhood. However the lot is huge and extremely private. It lends itself to a park like setting quite extraordinary for this area. Large windows allow you to enjoy the garden from inside the unit. The weak points were the carpet and the low qualty beds. The kitchen and foyer have laminated flooring I would recommend this throughout the house.

    This property is probably my favorite in my almost 20 year history of staying at VRBOs. It is clean and looks just like the photos. The actual grounds are huge and super private; it felt like we were in the middle of a forest or park yet in a great location in Seattle. Only thing of note is that like most places in Seattle, there is not air conditioning; we happened to arrive on a date where the temp was in the high 90s and broke the record by 6 degrees (so just very unlucky timing for us). Despite being a bit warm during the day, at night with windows open and fans it got plenty chilly, so it was not an issue. Also had one very minor drain issue that the response was immediate for, so know they take great care of the guests here. A very strong 5 stars!!!

    This older house on Vicasa is a hidden gem, offering a serene escape with its expansive, beautifully maintained yard filled with mature trees. The interior blends vintage charm with modern amenities, ensuring a comfortable stay. Conveniently located in a quiet neighborhood, it’s close to shops and restaurants while maintaining privacy. Perfect for a peaceful retreat or exploring the local area, this property exceeded all expectations. Highly recommended!
