About this home

Rare Gregory Heights opportunity on a level 12,726 square foot corner lot. This 1949 mid-century basement rambler features approximately 1,570 square feet of living space with 3 bedrooms, 1.75 bathroom, and a partially finished basement. Bring your remodeling ideas to customize the existing home, or explore the property's outstanding development potential. Zoned R3 under Burien's updated middle housing guidelines, the property offers exceptional land utility. Buyers may be able to keep the existing mid-century home and construct up to two detached backyard cottages (DADUs) of up to 1,000 square feet each—ideal for rental income, guest houses, or multigenerational living. For builders and developers, the large lot may also support full multi-unit redevelopment (up to 4 to 7 units) under the updated city code. Conveniently located just blocks from Lakeview Park and the St. Anne Hospital, schools and minutes from shopping, dining, and transit in Olde Burien. Easy commute to downtown Seattle and Sea-Tac Airport. Buyer to verify all development and zoning feasibility to their own satisfaction.
