About this home

Why settle for soulless? This 1910 Craftsman will capture your heart with its classic charm, timeless character and thoughtful modern updates. A covered front porch welcomes you home, overlooking the fenced south-facing yard where you can gather, garden, and play with friends & furbabies. Step inside to soaring ceilings, a proper entry and gorgeous hardwoods that lead through beautifully connected living spaces framed by graceful arched openings. Delight in the abundance of natural light streaming through the large living room windows. Whip up meals in the sunny kitchen with butcher block counters, under-cabinet lighting, stainless appliances and a crisp subway tile backsplash. A generous dining room for hosting loved ones & a full bath complete the main floor. Upstairs you'll find 3 bedrooms, each with a walk-in closet, plus mini-splits for year-round comfort. A stunning ¾ bath features heated floors, marble tile & under-cabinet lighting. The finished lower level offers a 4th bed, bonus room, laundry & half bath. Rest easy knowing major systems have been brought into the new century: updated electrical, plumbing, roof, double-pane windows, gas furnace & heat pump. Tucked into Ballard’s coveted West Woodland neighborhood, this unbeatable location puts the best of Ballard, Phinney & Fremont at your fingertips - from numerous coffee shops, dining hotspots, parks, breweries & farmers markets. Ditch the car for everyday errands & enjoy an easy-breezy bike or bus commute downtown.
