Out of all the apartments I’ve lived in, this one was probably the best—but that’s not saying a lot lol. I lived here around 2 years and moved in the perfect time in early 2021 (mid panny + bridge closure) to get a reasonable rate. Now similar apartments in the same building are ~500$+ a month more. So close to Alki, close to downtown and the water taxi. If the weather was like spring and summer all year here, I would have stayed, but the winters are miserable. Pros: Overall the main pro here is the location. Even with the bridge closed I could walk to a dr, massage, nail appointment, multiple grocers, grab food, coffee, etc. You will hardly ever need to drive. Less crime than other Seattle areas we’ve lived. Even with street parking our cars were never broken into or keyed. The build is high quality. Hardly had issues with garbage disposal, toilet, or anything in the house compared to other places I’ve lived. The only issue was our living room heater which did not seem adequate for the space it was supposed to heat, or the windows were the issue. Never quite figured that out. Cons: the parking lot has EXTREMELY TIGHT SPACES. So tight each time you park if you have any spot other than on an end cap where you drive straight in, you will need to take a 2-5 point turn to park. We have a compact car and were just skinny enough to fit with enough room to exit. A ton of people have trucks (unsure why needed in the city and that they’re allowed in such a small lot) and larger cars. For visitors there is a very close pay to park lot that we never had troubles with break ins or anything. If your apt is facing the strip walk by Tallricos it will be loud on the weekend evenings with people drinking and fighting. There is almost always drama on karaoke nights. One of the workers at the burger joint next door also throws Jim beam bottles on top of the dentist office—not sure why with all the dumpsters in sight—multiple times daily which is an eye sore, but gets cleaned off every season or so. There needs to be one additional maintenance person hired, the one working since we’ve been there is amazing and he has his hands full with the upkeep and requests. Another person at least part time would lift his load and turnaround times for tenets. Weird cons: the bathroom sinks are square shaped so you have to clean them almost daily or they look disgusting due to not being hit by water every time you use it. The elevators break down a lot. I’ve been stuck in it a few times lol.

I lived at 4730 from end of April 2022 to 2023. I enjoyed it for the most part. Izzy helped me with my application and Axel answered all of my questions during the initial appointment. The main reason to why I chose this place over others in the Junction is the safety. Like others have said, the parking lot is secure, everyone knows almost everyone, and almost every door requires access via key fob. Mail was never stolen. I've never felt unsafe living at this building. The area is super convenient. I walked to the stores (Safeway, Wholefoods, TJ's), out to the bars. There is almost always someone out in the Junction, even through the residential area. Still be aware of your surroundings though, obvi. There's even a dog wash downstairs of the apartment that I loved! Spencer is quick with maintenance repairs and works hard to get things fixed, too. A few things worth mentioning: Parking is expensive but worth it in my opinion. Spots are super tight, and you will most likely get frustrated. I was lucky enough to snag an ADA spot with a valid placard. I would suggest reading through the fine print and every single line, acknowledging the charges that will occur monthly. There was an apparent "discrepancy" regarding the Fetch system they are required to charge you for - whether you use it or not. You will pay for common area electricity and such too. The elevators constantly smelled like dog urine through out the day. I know the floors are mopped in the morning... but a lot of dogs live here (good thing)! There is a dog run upstairs that owners rarely take care of and let their dogs do their doo, and just leave it for others to clean up. YUCK! For what it is, I found it worth it for that time in the life. I would live there again if I had to. Definitely check it out if you are looking for a spacious, clean, bright apartment in the Junction area. It is a little expensive, but you are paying for convenience and safety.

I have lived here 5 months and have experienced excellent customer service from the team. Izzy a Leasing Consultant is always quick to respond and provided excellent customer service regarding a family emergency I had, making the situation much more tolerable. I'm impressed with the teams willingness to help out and accommodate me during that time. Spencer from the maintenence team was incredible fixing the maintenence issues i had with my apartment. I submitted a work order for three small issues I had in my unit. Spencer came out the next day and had the issues fixed before I returned home from work. I came home to the work completed and note detailing the work that was done. I was impressed with the friendly customer service and the urgency placed on my ticket, regardless of the urgency. This is a great place to live, and the views from the roof are incredible!

When I first moved here, the management was constantly changing and there wasn't much stability, however two years later, Axel and Izzy are doing a great job! They are both friendly and professional, and get the job done. Furthermore, maintenance has been swift and work around your schedule. Most of the neighbors are nice friendly people, and the overall building is nice. Location is walkable to a bunch of restaurants and shops in the Junction on California Ave. I like the gym, rooftop, grill, dog run, and coffee areas! Parking rates are a little high, but that's expected for this area, and has been safe so far. Highly recommend for anyone moving to Seattle/West Seattle!

I love this sunny, quiet, quality, comfortable and warm home - 4730 California. The location is perfect and interior exterior design is modern and the view is wonderful. The management and maintenance staff are very friendly, understanding and helpful. Olga is an awesome staff and treats us just like good friends and help you as much as she can. She is one of the reasons that I want to sign the lease. Blann is the best maintenance man and usually fixed the problems within one day. Jamil is a great person and always there to help you deal with all kinds of issues. I didn’t know anyone when I first moved to Seattle. Now, I really appreciated their amazing work and make me feel good around here. The residents in the building are also very friendly and respectful. I enjoy living in 4730 California.

New management team lead by Jennifer is extraordinary. Total care of the tenant with wow level of service. Responsive office team, exceptional maintenance professional. Highest marks for the community maintenance, sparkling appearance and common areas. On site management welcomes feedback and strives to wow at all times. The current leadership team under Jennifer's direction deserve the highest marks! Bravo & congrats!

My girlfriend and I just moved up from Dallas. We had something on the order of a dozen apartment viewings scheduled with the intention to sign a lease in under a week. There are some nice places around the junction, but when we were walking the area, we noticed a building we hadn't scheduled. Decided to check it out, you know, because why not. We were so thrilled we did. Olga was by far the most pleasant leasing agent we met with, and once we decided that we were moving forward with California 4730, she took out her whole Saturday to ensure we could move in before I started work on Monday. Lovely place, helpful staff, fantastic location. We're really looking forward to our experience as part of the California 4730 community.

Move in process was super easy and seamless. Izzy was my main point of contact. She answered the 1000 questions I had and made me feel secure and happy in my decision. I love this neighborhood and this community.
