*This listing posted on Feb. 19th. Viewings available beginning Monday, Feb. 21. Fully updated, mid-century modern, 2 bed/1 bath home. An outdoor lover's paradise and rare find for city living. Offset from the street and situated on a 7,551 sq ft lot with quiet, private, fully-fenced backyard space. Oak hardwood floors, huge picture windows, and French doors throughout to bring in an abundance of natural light and territorial views all around. French doors open from living room and master bedroom to look out onto the expansive backyard space filled with native plants, trees, and songbirds. Second bedroom has a drop-down Murphy bed and drop-down desk, so room functions both as a second bedroom and as work-from-home office. Thoughtfully designed, generously sized kitchen that cooks love! Granite counter tops, new high-efficiency appliances, all new lighting, and soft-close cabinets and drawers throughout. Tons of storage space. Locally, artisan crafted butcher block bar and seating space connects the kitchen to the living room to create a modern, open-concept design. Not pictured is a 250 sq ft. unfinished bonus room (attached to main house) with large, front loading washer/ dryer, utility sink, and lots of work and storage space. Bonus room has been used as a second office, a workout room, and an outdoor gear space. Perfect room for active PNW folks who love getting out and need a large space for their activity gear. Other features: Plenty of parking, both in driveway and in large area directly in front of the home. The attic, walls, and subfloor were all re-insulated in 2017, so utility bills are quite low compared to other homes of this size (PSE and SPU reports have ranked the home's utility usage in the highest efficiency range for the last three years). The most special element is the expansive, quiet, private outdoor space with mature landscaping, which is a true treasure in a city environment. The original owner of this mid-century home was an entomologist who thoughtfully designed the landscaping to support local pollinator habitat. The lot has year-round landscaping features that delight in every season. Landlord manages landscaping so you are free to enjoy the benefits without the hard work of maintenance. Lots of garden space available. (Three raised beds, currently filled with strawberries and greens). Truly a gem for gardeners, birders, and outdoor lovers. Also, rad neighbors all around!
