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.

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.
