Edith Macefield House
4.2 (257)attraction
Hemmed in by a shopping complex, this tiny Ballard cottage famously held its ground—and drew comparisons to Pixar’s Up.
Description






Edith Macefield famously refused to sell her small farmhouse to a multi-million-dollar commercial development. The site has since become a whimsical local landmark and symbol of stubborn independence, frequently decorated by visitors with balloons and mementos. In practice, stopping by is primarily a curbside view—a quick, nostalgic encounter driven by an intriguing backstory.
