About this home

Classic Seattle homes are plentiful, but ones with this level of personality and charm, along with the right kind of modern living, are rare to find. A Wallingford classic, deeply cherished for the last 25 years. Fully renovated with all systems updated and modernized, along with a layout transformation that creates all the right living spaces. Upper level features 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, including an impressive primary suite with vaulted ceilings, desk nook, built-ins and southern exposure showcasing sensational city views, plus one of those lovely balconies you dream of having. Light-filled main level offers classic, spacious rooms, gorgeous hardwoods, an impressive sunlit kitchen with adjacent family room, convenient sunroom, plus bedroom/home office and powder room. A walk-out lower level adds even more flexibility with its spacious rec room (5th bedroom potential), ¾ bath and multiple storage areas. Storybook, south-facing sunny backyard with secret garden vibes and ready to become someone’s new happy place. Imagine magical outdoor gatherings surrounded by mature perennial gardens, all fully fenced for total privacy. Newer roof, sewer, furnace, AC and appliances for peace of mind. Easily accessible detached garage, on a street-to-alley lot. At the intersection of Phinney Ridge, Green Lake and Fremont, yet tucked away on a quiet Wallingford residential block. Timeless character. Modern comforts. Decades of lovingly cultivated gardens await.
