About this home

Timeless Seattle Box Foursquare showcasing exceptional craftsmanship and thoughtful updates in one of Capitol Hill’s most desirable locations. Impressive curb appeal and a welcoming covered front porch introduce a home rich in period character, featuring leaded glass windows, clear-stained millwork, box-beam ceilings, pocket doors, wainscoting, a grand staircase, and oak and fir floors. Generously proportioned living and dining rooms, a gas fireplace, and a private office or den create inviting spaces for everyday living and entertaining, while the circular floor plan provides an easy, natural flow throughout the main level. The beautifully remodeled kitchen features abundant cabinetry, custom tile work, granite countertops, heated travertine floors, dual sinks, a skylight, a casual dining area, a breakfast bar, and a bay window overlooking the private backyard. An ironwood deck extends the living space outdoors. The second level includes three spacious bedrooms and a full bath with heated floors, dual sinks, and laundry. The finished attic offers a bedroom and flexible office or family room with a peek of the Space Needle, while the lower level features an additional bedroom or media room, a ¾ bath, laundry hookups, and a storage room. Detached 2-car garage with an additional off-alley parking space. Entire property enclosed by brand-new premium fencing. Just blocks from Capitol Hill’s popular restaurants, cafés, shopping, light rail, bus transit, and beloved Volunteer Park.
