Building Profile
1350 Alki is a 10-unit, 6-story condominium at 1350 Alki Ave SW in West Seattle, built in 2008. Positioned directly on the Alki Beach corridor between Bay Villa Alki Beach (1210) and Pinnacle at Alki (1118) to the north, the building occupies a prime stretch of the Alki Ave SW strip with eastern views across Elliott Bay to the Downtown Seattle skyline.
With just 10 units spread across six floors, 1350 Alki is among the most intimate buildings on the beach. The low unit count per floor — likely one or two per story — creates a residential density profile closer to a luxury apartment building than a traditional condominium complex. Owner-occupancy in buildings of this scale tends to be high, and resale velocity is characteristically low: units here trade infrequently, often before reaching the open market.
The 2008 vintage places 1350 Alki in a well-established phase — past its builder warranty period and with a documented HOA history, but approaching the timeframe where reserve fund health and major system review become first-order due diligence items. Contact Jeff Reynolds for current listings, HOA financials, and a full buyer analysis of the Alki Beach corridor.

Due Diligence
Key factors for buyers evaluating 1350 Alki. Jeff Reynolds covers each of these in every Alki Beach condo consultation.
At 10 units, 1350 Alki has one of the smallest HOA structures on the Alki Beach corridor. Small HOAs mean higher per-unit cost exposure for capital repairs, less reserve fund buffer, and more direct owner governance — for better and worse. A single major capital expenditure (roof, elevator, envelope) can materially impact monthly fees. Request the full reserve study, 3 years of meeting minutes, and current budget before making an offer.
Built in 2008, 1350 Alki is approximately 17 years old — a typical inflection point where first-generation mechanical and envelope systems approach end-of-life timelines. The reserve fund has had 17 years to build, but should be evaluated against projected capital needs. Request the most recent reserve study and confirm the funding percentage. An underfunded reserve at this building age is a material red flag. Jeff evaluates this as a first-order condition on any offer.
In a 6-story, 10-unit building, floor position matters significantly. Upper floors on the east-facing Alki corridor have clear Elliott Bay and Downtown Seattle views; lower floors may face the street or have obstructed water views. Confirm the exact floor, unit number, and view corridor before evaluating comparable sales. The floor premium at boutique Alki buildings can be 10–20% between lower and upper floors. Jeff tracks this spread across every building on the strip.
1350 Alki is approximately 0.4 miles from the Seacrest Park water taxi terminal — a walkable distance on the Alki Path for most buyers. The water taxi runs to Downtown Pier 50 in approximately 10–12 minutes on weekday commute schedules. Confirm current service hours align with your actual work schedule before purchasing. The West Seattle Bridge and California Ave bus routes are the primary alternatives when the water taxi is not running.
Who Buys Here
Buyers specifically targeting the 1200–1400 block of Alki Ave SW — the densest concentration of boutique condo buildings on the beach — find 1350 Alki a well-priced alternative to newer construction like Pinnacle (2020) and 1200 Alki (2000). The 2008 vintage offers a balance of established HOA history and relative modernity compared to 1976–1986 era buildings further east on the strip.
Buyers who've toured larger Alki buildings and find them too impersonal gravitate toward 10-unit buildings like 1350 Alki and Pinnacle at Alki. A 10-unit HOA operates more like a co-op than a traditional condo association — owners know each other, decisions happen by direct consensus, and community character is determined by the people, not a management company. This appeals strongly to long-term ownership buyers.
At 0.4 miles from the Seacrest Park water taxi terminal, 1350 Alki is among the closest Alki Ave SW buildings to the Downtown ferry connection. Buyers who commute to Downtown Seattle's office core find the 10–12 minute water taxi ride from a walkable terminal a compelling alternative to the West Seattle Bridge commute — and a lifestyle differentiator from any other Seattle neighborhood.
