About this home

Some homes just feel welcoming from the moment you arrive. This charming West Seattle Craftsman makes a lasting first impression with classic curb appeal and a covered front porch that invites you to slow down and stay awhile. Western exposure brings an abundance of natural light throughout the day, with beautiful afternoon and evening sunsets to enjoy. The spacious kitchen and dining area create a warm gathering place for everyday meals, and entertaining, while 3 bedrooms offer flexibility for guests or a home office. Downstairs, additional living space for movie nights or relaxing. Step outside to a private, fully fenced backyard designed for enjoying the outdoors. A covered patio extends the living space, while the fire pit creates a natural gathering spot. Raised garden beds are ready for your green thumb, and a storage shed provides room for all your outdoor essentials. Pride of ownership shines through with fresh interior paint and new carpet (2026), along with thoughtful improvements including a new roof, new basement stairs and LVP flooring in the basement (2024). And then there’s the neighborhood - walk to Highland Park and Highland Park Elementary, with Westcrest Park just mins away. Just around the corner, Highland Park Corner Store is a favorite neighborhood gathering spot for Thu night wine tastings, food trucks, and catching up with neighbors. More than just a home, it’s a place to settle in, enjoy the everyday moments, and make it your own.
