Metro on First, a 106-unit apartment community in Seattle’s highly sought-after Queen Anne neighborhood, has sold for $42,600,000. Dylan Simon, Jerrid Anderson, and JD Fuller of Kidder Mathews’ Simon | Anderson Multifamily Team represented the seller — a large, institutional owner —and directly sourced the buyer.
Originally built in 2001, Metro on First has undergone substantial interior renovations in recent years, positioning it as a light value-add opportunity for the new owner. Its premier Queen Anne location offers immediate access to downtown Seattle, South Lake Union, and a host of lifestyle amenities — making it a prime asset in the city’s evolving multifamily market.
“Metro on First offers a rare combination of location, scale, and potential in one of Seattle’s most desirable neighborhoods,” said Simon. “Investor appetite remains strong for well-positioned assets like this, even in today’s evolving market landscape.”
