The Grove is a great new apartment complex in Ballard with reasonable monthly rent prices, multiple unit arrangements, and a couple lease-length options. Although the walls are somewhat thin, other amenities, such as in-unit washer & dryer and full kitchen, make the small space more comfortable. The building is highly secured in a nice residential area, while also being very close to many great local businesses, grocery stores, and downtown Ballard. There is also a sizable community rooftop to... be enjoyed. Read More

The grove is wonderful for what it is! Obviously you are getting a small studio in a building with no amenities, but if you know that coming in and don’t expect anything extra then it is quite lovely. Everything Is clean and new. Fairly good insulation so you don’t hear your neighbors. All the appliances are new and nice. Overall it’s a great place if you don’t care about all the bells and whistles that come with more expensive apartments. Would definitely recommend living here.

I have been living at The Grove for a year and just re-signed for another year! It is a very clean and modern apartment building that is well built. I rarely, if ever, hear any noise from other tenants and everyone I have interacted with from the staff to other tenants has been extremely nice! I would highly recommend The Grove if you are looking in the Ballard area!

This building is fairly new, the lobby, elevators, and halls are kept clean and tidy. The actual apartments are really nice. They have a modern feel. I love the in unit washer/dryer (and that they are two separate machines, not one of the combos). The bathroom is big considering the size of the apartment. It is walking distance to breweries, coffee shops, restaurants, and a produce store.

Downsides are the lack of AC. It wold get up to 90 in my place during the summer. The large windows are... beautiful but create a greenhouse effect. Also, the minimal street parking could be a real pain sometimes. Read More

Though I have only lived at the Grove for a short time, I have really enjoyed my experience so far! The location is great. I love that the apartments are walking distance from lots of fun restaurants and shops in Ballard. I especially appreciate the fact that the studios have a full kitchen and in-unit washer/dryers, something that is weirdly hard to come by for studios in Seattle. The only less ideal aspects of these apartments are the street parking (though you can usually find a spot near-ish... by) and the lack of AC (it can get quite hot in the summer). Overall, I have really enjoyed living here. Read More
