About this home

A rare opportunity to own one of three penthouses at the iconic Gainsborough — a 1930s Tudor Revival landmark perched in the heart of First Hill. This historic building offers a rare blend of old-world grandeur and elevated city living, tucked along a serene, tree-lined street in one of Seattle’s most connected neighborhoods. Step off the elevator and arrive at the top floor, where your private 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom penthouse awaits. The open layout offers the opportunity to make this home your own. Expansive windows frame captivating city views from every room, filling the space with natural light and creating a seamless connection to the surrounding skyline. Residents enjoy secure entry, a rooftop deck, and a charming historic lobby. Whether you’re savoring your morning coffee or unwinding at day’s end, you’ll appreciate the unique blend of historic charm, modern comfort, and elevated city living that only a penthouse at the Gainsborough can offer.
