Here is a rare opportunity for a wealthy movie buff. The floating home used for exterior shots in the 1993 Tom Hanks & Meg Ryan hit romantic comedy, "Sleepless in Seattle," is available for sale for the first time in 14 years. Many visitors to Seattle ask to see the over 2000 square foot "houseboat" with the killer views of Lake Union. It is the tan one with green and purple trim peeking at the very end of a this private residence dock. There are only 500 houseboats / floating homes around Lake Union's shores, and I believe this is one of the very largest (4 bedrooms/2 baths) and has unobstructed views. Yes, that's the bench Hank's sits on during the fireworks scene, just visible at the end of the dock beyond that hanging flower basket. Visitors can only catch a full view from a respectful distance via one of the Lake Union tour boat operations. For other views of its setting, see my More Seattle Stuff page here, and see the real estate ad here.
