About this home
Some homes simply provide a place to live—this one tells a story. Nestled in the heart of North Admiral, this rare Mid-Century Modern residence blends iconic architecture with contemporary comfort. One of only four homes in an intimate boutique building, with one residence per floor, walls of windows on three sides fill the home with natural light while offering exceptional privacy. Thoughtfully updated in 2025, it features refinished hardwood floors, new laminate flooring, fresh interior paint, central air conditioning, an advanced HEPA air scrubber with added air purification, and an energy-efficient hybrid heat pump water heater. The spacious kitchen showcases granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, pantry storage, and a sunny breakfast nook flowing into the formal dining room and expansive living room, anchored by a striking period stone fireplace. The primary suite offers a spa-inspired five-piece bath with dual vanities, while a private elevator opens directly into the residence. An individual garage, large private storage room, community pool, and fitness room complete the lifestyle. Just moments from Metropolitan Market, neighborhood cafés, acclaimed restaurants, the historic Admiral Theater, Hamilton Viewpoint Park, and less than a 15-minute walk to Alki Beach, this is a rare opportunity to own a beautifully updated Mid-Century home where timeless design, walkable convenience, and modern comfort come together.
