About this home

Welcome to a home that blends lasting quality with fresh, move-in-ready updates. Rebuilt from the studs up in 2006, it has just been updated again with new interior paint, new carpet, professionally refreshed landscaping, a fully remodeled bathroom and an updated laundry room. Inside, gleaming hardwood floors and abundant natural light flow through more than 3,497 sf of thoughtfully planned living space. Take in sweeping mountain views, cook and gather in a well-appointed kitchen, and unwind in a spacious primary suite. Outside, the private, beautifully landscaped yard is a peaceful retreat for morning coffee or summer evenings. A massive 2-car garage plus additional off-street parking adds rare convenience. Just a short walk to the West Seattle Junction, with its local cafes, shops, acclaimed restaurants and year-round Sunday farmers market. Commuting downtown is a breeze, and Alki Beach, Lincoln Park and Hiawatha Park are only minutes away. Space, location and neighborhood character all in one place! Come see your new home.
