About this home
Situated on a desirable corner lot in the sought-after Maple Leaf neighborhood, this light-filled home is deceptively spacious with 5 bedrooms and 2.75 baths. An extensive 2009 renovation thoughtfully reimagined the home, creating inviting, functional living spaces with oak hardwood floors, two gas fireplaces, and double-pane windows. The beautifully remodeled kitchen opens to the living room and features slab granite countertops, a charming garden window, stainless steel appliances, and a hooded gas range. Flexible living options allow the home to function as a generously sized single-family residence or offer potential for a guest suite, MIL, or rental using the lower level together with a second kitchen on the main level as a non-conforming ADU. Outside, enjoy a fully fenced, low-maintenance yard and gardens, a storage shed, and off-street parking for three vehicles. Just blocks from Maple Leaf Reservoir Park, with 16 acres of open space, walking paths, playground, sports courts, and sweeping views of Mount Rainier and Lake Washington. Direct Metro Route 62 service to South Lake Union and Northgate Link light rail just over a mile away provide convenient access to downtown, the University District, Capitol Hill, and Sea-Tac Airport. Level corner lot provides added flexibility and potential for a DADU or other residential development under Seattle’s current Neighborhood Residential zoning. Buyer to verify development potential with the City of Seattle.
