About this home

Investor / entrepreneur alert! Exceptional Live + Work townhome rocks a priceless Walker's Paradise location, where perfect business space meets perfect home. The sleek, level-entry commercial space boasts 12' ceilings, heated concrete floors, floor-to-ceiling glass, and an accessible 3/4 bath. Leverage the synergy of the unique Charlestown community of Live/Work townhomes, including busy Olympia Coffee, Welcome Road Winery, and convenient neighborhood hotspots for beauty, health, home goods and more! Tucked behind the townhome, a landscaped courtyard entry leads to a light-filled 3/2 residence above the retail space, where an expansive open-plan home with green views and chef's island kitchen is equally perfect for gatherings or solitude. Full bath plus a guest-or-media room complete the second level; top-floor primary suite with deck boasts 4-pc bath, WIC, and blackout shades; a 3rd bedroom and full-size laundry are just down the hall. Throughout the home, top-down/bottom-up blinds provide both privacy and light. Outside, find 1 designated off-street park space, plentiful on-street parking for clients or guests, and pro-maintained gardens. Any owner-occupant will relish the 10-second commute from luminous retreat to their own vibrant workspace; investors will appreciate the increasing rarity of Live/Works, and the value of this location for prospective tenants. Transit, C-Line, West Seattle amenities, freeway access: all conveniently near. A very special opportunity!
