10755 20th Ave NE, Seattle, WA 98125

Just renovated, and one of the very few homes in North Seattle with true central air conditioning and EV ready (Level 2 charging ready). Available now, with time to settle in before school starts September 2. We've just completed a comprehensive floor-to-ceiling update of this 1994-built home: brand-new flooring throughout, fresh interior paint in every room, modern lighting, all-new door fixtures, bathroom toilet, and a brand-new hot water heater. Central heating and air conditioning keep the whole house comfortable year-round, a genuine rarity in a neighborhood where most homes were built decades earlier. At 2,020 square feet with 4 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, there is real room for a family to spread out. The layout is built for family life. A formal living room and a separate formal dining room handle holidays and homework, while a comfortable family room anchored by a cozy gas fireplace gives everyone somewhere else to be. The kitchen has granite countertops and fully equipped with refrigerator, range, microwave, dishwasher, and disposal. The primary suite is a private retreat with a walk-in closet and en-suite bathroom, joined by three additional bedrooms and a full guest bath. Full-size washer and dryer in the home, hardwood flooring, ceiling fans, fiber high-speed internet ready, and a security system included. Outside, a fenced yard gives kids and dogs somewhere of their own, and there's a lawn to enjoy on summer evenings. The attached 2-car garage adds interior access, built-in bike racks, and genuinely useful additional storage for bikes, camping gear, and the things that never fit anywhere else. Guest parking is easy when family comes to visit. Pets are welcome. Cats and dogs of any size are considered, so you don't have to leave anyone behind. Location is the quiet advantage here. You're minutes from Northgate, the Thornton Creek movie theater, QFC, Lake City, and excellent local dining. Commuting is effortless: the Metro 77 bus line to downtown stops just three blocks away, the I-5 Express lanes are minutes from the door, and Northgate light rail station is roughly a mile up the road. Nearby schools include Jane Addams Middle School (rated 8/10) and Nathan Hale High School (rated 7/10), with well-regarded elementary options close by. Available immediately with some flexibility on the start date. Seattle Public Schools begins Wednesday, September 2, so there is still time to be moved in and settled before the first day.
