We’re pleased to introduce you to Brooke Kavieff, Sales Agent at The Emerald in downtown Seattle. You may have enjoyed a virtual or in-person tour with Brooke or have seen her in a Zoom spotlight or video recently. She’s in high demand these days! Bringing 7 years new home real estate sales experience and an extensive background in new construction, Brooke is happy to be part of the team behind this exciting new real estate development calling The Emerald, “An Elegant, sophisticated and luminous building.”
As someone who has just as much appreciation for the outdoors, as the indoors, Brooke covets a good water view that can be enjoyed steps from all the action of city-living. “My favorite view is from our southwest corner one-bedroom. There’s so much to see from this corner. I like looking down at the street scene in Pike Place, watching the ferries pass by in Elliott Bay, admiring Mount Rainier when she makes an appearance. Prospective buyers and brokers who tour are always surprised to find how many of our homes have water views!”
Originally from Texas, Brooke has called Seattle home for the last 3 years, “I love living close to the water and the mountains, it’s the best of both worlds for an outdoor-lover like myself.” Ask Brooke about her favorite spots to enjoy the great outdoors in the Pacific Northwest or where to find the best nearby jogging trails. An avid runner, Brooke has added completing the 2015 NYC Marathon to her list of achievements.
Join us as we go behind-the-scenes with Brooke sharing her favorite spots in the neighborhood, model home design, interior details by Susan Marinello Interiors and even what we’d find in her Pike Place Market bag:
What are some of your favorite building design features?
I love our interior finishes! Susan Marinello did an incredible job making the selections. They are elegant, contemporary, and warm. One of my favorite special touches that Susan included is the wall accent tile on the ground floor and amenity levels. It has a beautiful raised pattern that almost looks like sand as the tide is going out. The lights directed from the ceiling down across the tile brings out the unique design of the tile. I’ve never seen anything like it, almost all of our guests make a comment about how beautiful it is.
Do you have a favorite model home design?
One of my favorite model home designs is our southeast corner one bedroom with a den, Residence 2402 designed by ASH Staging. To play off Model Residence 2402’s sharp angles, ASH opted to ground the living room with a round rug and curved sofa paired with a Robert Parry Lotus Chair carved in African walnut. This floor plan has my favorite den in the entire building! It’s wrapped in floor to ceiling windows with views down to Smith Tower, Pike Place, and Elliott Bay. The den is separated from the bedroom by the living room and kitchen, which creates privacy for someone working from home.
What are some of your favorite spots in the neighborhood to frequent?
Some of my favorite local spots in the neighborhood include Michou for a healthy grab-and-go lunch or a nice picnic along the Seattle waterfront. Storyville Coffee for coffee, of course. Their location also has one of my favorite views of The Market. When I’m in the mood for a little shopping, I love to walk over to Alexandra’s Designer Consignment on 4th Ave. & Olive. I always find something unique when I’m there!
If we took a peek inside your Pike Place Market bag, what 3 items would we find?
My bag would definitely include a Gluten-free Cinnamon Roll from Cinnamon Works, a fresh bouquet of Dahlias, and a block of Beecher’s smoked cheese.
The Emerald has welcomed its first residents and is offering on-site and virtual tours of eight new model homes and our recently unveiled 39th-floor veranda and rooftop amenity space. Schedule your personal tour with Brooke to be among the first to step onto The Emerald Veranda and experience an outdoor lounge with chef-grade barbecues, lounge seating, dining tables, outdoor firepit, fireplace, outdoor TVs and heaters, and incredible views day and night.
