About the Building
Montreux sits at 425 Vine Street on the north edge of Belltown, where the neighborhood begins to hand off to Seattle Center and Uptown. That position is practical: the Sculpture Park, the waterfront and the Seattle Center campus are all short walks, and so is the Downtown core, without the density of the 1st and 2nd Avenue core blocks.
The building has long served buyers who want a well-placed pied-a-terre rather than a full-service tower, and its home mix reflects that with a large share of compact studios and one-bedrooms, some two-bedroom plans, and loft-style layouts on the top floor. Shared spaces consistently reported include a rooftop deck with BBQ and broad city and Space Needle views, a small fitness room, a business and conference area, a club and game room, a secured lobby, an elevator and on-site management.
Residence Character
- Scale suits a pied-a-terre or a first ownership step in Belltown more than it suits a large-home buyer.
- Top-floor loft-style plans are the largest layouts in the building; most homes are studios and one-bedrooms.
- The rooftop deck is the building's shared outdoor room, with BBQ, city and Space Needle exposure.
- Balconies, decks, parking and storage occur with some homes rather than all. Verify each for a specific residence before writing an offer.
Amenities
- Rooftop deck with BBQ and city outlook
- Fitness room
- Common club and game room
- Business and conference area
- Secured lobby with on-site management reported in current listings

Important
No Rental Cap ≠ Short-Term Rental
A building can allow an unlimited number of owners to lease their residences while still requiring a 30-day, three-month, six-month, twelve-month, or longer minimum lease. Rental-cap percentage and minimum lease duration are separate rules and should always be reviewed independently.

Association rental and leasing rules, rental caps, current cap availability, waitlists, minimum lease terms, fees and short-term-rental policies can change at any time. Information should be independently verified through the current resale certificate, declaration, rules and regulations, association management and applicable City of Seattle requirements before purchase or lease.
Building permission does not itself establish that an owner is eligible to operate a short-term rental. Seattle licensing and operator/unit eligibility requirements apply separately.
