Charming Magnolia Rental Properties
Magnolia offers a uniquely peaceful, “oasis-in-the-city” lifestyle, perched on a hilly peninsula just northwest of downtown Seattle. Known for its quiet, tree-lined streets and a strong sense of community, the neighborhood feels miles away from the urban bustle while remaining only a 15-minute commute from the city center. Residents are drawn to the 534-acre Discovery Park, Seattle’s largest green space, which features miles of trails, rugged sea bluffs, and the historic West Point Lighthouse. The neighborhood’s heart is “The Village,” a charming commercial district filled with local boutiques, cozy cafes, and family-owned restaurants that foster a classic, small-town atmosphere.

What People Say About Our Leasing Team
We were living in a property managed by them in Magnolia and they were totally professional. All the maintenance issues were addressed on time and I would happily recommend them to anyone. Yes, I had a larger portion of my deposit deducted during my move out, but we were going through a lot at that time personally, and the entire process was totally hassle free.
– Vivek B.
Avenue one is the best! I just moved back to Seattle from LA and ended up in the most perfect building on Queen Anne through Avenue One! The team is so kind and attentive, and the building is beautifully maintained. Would highly recommend them for anyone looking for a great leasing company!
