Property Description

Live in the center of it all, one of Seattle’s most sought-after pockets only steps from Wallingford, Green Lake, and Tangletown - while enjoying the comfort of a beautifully maintained Craftsman with meaningful updates. Classic architectural details like hardwood floors, built-ins, substantial millwork and an original fireplace pair with modern improvements across major systems. The main floor’s open transition from living to dining to kitchen spaces delivers a smooth, cohesive flow perfect for comfortable day-to-day living and memorable entertaining. From the abundant off-street parking in back, step into a bright Craftsman-style kitchen showcasing solid-wood cabinetry and welcoming natural light. The prominent corner lot offers notable future development potential along with the rare benefit of up to four off-street parking spaces. The finished walk-out lower level adds valuable flex space for work, guests, hobbies, or entertainment. With updated siding, windows, heating, plumbing, and electrical, plus a completed pre-inspection and sewer scope, buyers can move in with confidence. The fully fenced, landscaped yard offers a peaceful retreat that feels worlds away from the city, yet you’re moments from beloved cafés, restaurants, shops, parks, and transit. A truly central location with the charm, flexibility, and convenience Seattle buyers seek.
