Timeless Mount Baker Charm with Sweeping Views. Perched high above the city, this beautifully reimagined 1900s residence captures 180° views of downtown Seattle, Puget Sound & Olympic Mountains. Every level of the home is designed to showcase the view. Classic details—original hardwoods and detailed millwork blend seamlessly with modern upgrades, including new windows, siding, and an expansive deck. Earlier renovations brought updates to the kitchen, bathrooms, electrical, plumbing, roof & gutters. Upstairs, find four spacious bedrooms, while the lower level offers a private guest suite. The home offers the perfect balance of urban convenience & neighborhood charm. Quick access to transit, parks, restaurants, shops, and Lake Washington.
