Moving to a new West Seattle home

This is my 835th post on AliceIsTheKey.blogspot.com! It's been a nice starter-home, but after more than 4 years, I'm moving to a new address. I hope you will follow me to my new home at www.WondersInAliceLand.com.  More than just real estate information, Wonders In Alice Land also focuses on Living Single, Living Green and Living the Law of Attraction.

It promises to be an adventure :)

Prudential Northwest Realty welcomes Santa Paws

What is the holiday season without a few puns?

My colleagues and I, in the West Seattle Prudential office, decided to put together a fun little holiday event for our past, present and future clients (after all, everyone fits into ONE of those categories). On Saturday, Dec. 3rd, from noon-2:30, Santa Claus will be in our office to have his picture taken with you and your pet (or your other friends/family). And we will give you a free copy of the photo for you to proudly display wherever!

We will also have free refreshments if you are camera-shy and just want to come by to say hello and watch the fun.

If you are feeling generous, you can choose to donate pet toys, pet food, etc. to benefit Ginger's Pet Rescue

OR, if you'd like to add a little joy to the Christmas of a needy, yet deserving child, we will also have a donation barrel to benefit the Marine Toys For Tots toy drive. Bring you NEW and UNWRAPPED toys to the Prudential Northwest Realty office and drop them in the designated bin. We will deliver them to the Toys for Tots distribution center in late December to help brighten Christmas for a child who might otherwise receive nothing.

Questions? Give me a call at 206-708-9800. Or, if you have donations but can't make it to the Prudential office, contact me and I will arrange to have it picked up from your home or office.

Pedestrian safety in West Seattle

It's not exactly a sidewalk, but ...

While walking my dog along Roxbury the other day, I noticed that the City has painted lines and pedestrian icons (for lack of a better word) along the road in lieu of actual sidewalks.

I guess that's a step in the right direction (pun intended).

Have you seen these anywhere else around West Seattle?

New listing already sold!

I was going to write a post telling all about the Seatac condo I listed yesterday, but we already have two offers on it!

Who says Seattle real estate isn't selling?

Here's a link to the listing, anyway, in Wedgewood Manor, 3425 S 176th St, 98188.

If you want your home sold, particularly West Seattle homes, give me a call at 206-708-9800.
