The pool

An "extraordinary opportunity" has hit the Capitol Hill rental market. Capitol Hill developer Michael Malone is putting his 1905 St. Mark's mansion up for rent, CHS has learned. You can make the nearly 9,000 square-foot 10th Ave E home with "dramatic views," the "fantastic rec room" and the "pool side terrace and gardens" your romping grounds. But you'll probably need roommates. Rent clocks in at $15,000. A month.

Extraordinary opportunity to rent a fully furnished estate on the crest of Capitol Hill, with dramatic views of Lake Union, Downtown, and the Olympic Mountains. Gated drive opens to 1-1/2 acre property and historic Arts and Crafts style home. Tremendous craftsmanship, very inviting residence, lovely rooms. library, media room, paneled dining room, fantastic rec room, pretty kitchen family room with access to the pool side terrace and gardens. Cabana.

According to county records, the 1.5 acre property and 6-bedroom house was already in the Malone family when the Hunters Capital head acquired it in 1990. No word on why Malone is making the fully furnished home available now but perhaps he's enjoying his new Broadway Building which is a little more in the heart of the action.
