Set in one of Seattle’s most beloved pockets, this extensively remodeled Madrona craftsman blends timeless character with thoughtful upgrades. An unbeatable, walkable location - just moments to cafés, shops and parks - paired with sweeping city and territorial views that anchor daily life in the best of urban living. The home has been meticulously updated with permits, including new interior and exterior paint, flooring throughout, fully remodeled kitchen and baths, and a custom-designed patio pathway that seamlessly connects indoor and outdoor spaces. Every improvement was made with intention, preserving the home’s original craftsman charm while elevating it for today’s lifestyle. The main level offers a true primary suite - rare and highly sought-after - creating an effortless, livable floorplan. Upstairs, two massive bedrooms share a private bath, offering flexibility for a second primary suite, guest quarters, or creative workspace. The daylight basement expands the home’s versatility with its own private entrance, wet bar, living area, bathroom, and fourth bedroom - ideal for hosting, multi-generational living, or a home office setup that feels completely separate. Design-forward, walkable, and deeply rooted in one of Seattle’s most vibrant neighborhoods, this is a home that feels both curated and lived-in - where historic soul meets modern ease.
