About this home
Welcome to this truly special 5-bed, 3.25-bath home in the heart of North Beach, where timeless character is seamlessly blended w/ thoughtful modern updates. Earthquake-retrofitted, newer systems, tankless H2O, & central A/C, this exceptional home reflects years of intentional design & pristine maintenance. The living rm features hardwd floors, original mahogany doors, a bay window seat & gas fireplace. The kitchen offers SS appliances, granite counters & solid-wood cabinetry w/ pull-out shelving. The adjoining dining rm features a built-in hutch & glass sliders that open to a stunning south-facing Ipe deck. The main level also boasts a ¾ bath w/ heated flrs, stacked W/D, & a large, light-filled bedrm. Upstairs, all 3 bedrms enjoy partial Puget Sound & Olympic Mt. views. The primary suite provides a walk-in closet & ¾ ensuite bath. The lower level showcases a bedrm, family rm, 2nd kitchen, full bath, additional laundry, & separate entrance, creating flexibility for multigenerational living or ADU. The yard has been thoughtfully transformed into a charming cottage garden, where granite stepping-stone pathways wind through the front, sides, & back of the home. The fully-fenced, private backyard serves as a peaceful oasis, perfect for birdwatching. A huge detached two-car garage off the alley includes shop space, & an upper-level office or storage space (possible DADU?). Lots of off-street parking in front. Tons of storage throughout. North Beach access is just a block away.
