About this home

Tucked on a leafy corner lot, this 1939 cottage has a great layout, a generous footprint, closets galore and Cascade views, and it's on the market for the first time since 1994! Inside, fresh paint runs throughout, and the main floor gleams with newly refinished hardwoods. The living room centers on a wood-burning fireplace, the formal dining room holds space for everyone at the table, and both feature huge picture windows looking out to the greenery. The big eat-in kitchen fits a proper table by more windows, plus counter seating at the peninsula, a handy office nook, and French doors out to a large Trex deck above the backyard. The primary bedroom and a full bath are also on the main. Upstairs, hardwoods continue through two more bedrooms, including a knotty-pine hideaway with French doors to a Juliet balcony, plus a full bath and a walk-in closet. The lower level is all opportunity: a pine-paneled rec room, workshop, laundry, and loads of storage. Outside, a fully fenced yard, brick patio and mature trees create a private retreat, and the attached garage sits off a rebuilt driveway. Already updated: the sewer line (repaired and lined), garage door, driveway, French doors, picture windows, and deck. Move in, update the rest at your own pace, and end up with a seriously fabulous home in one of Seattle's best neighborhoods, blocks from Miller Park and the dining and retail on 19th Ave E. Only minutes to Volunteer Park, the Arboretum, and 520.
