Enjoy living close to downtown Ballard without compromising with a townhome. This turn of the century Ballard home is the best of both worlds. Its location is excellent (It is half a mile from Downtown Ballard) and it was almost fully renovated in 2009 to incorporate high-end ecologically minded finishes while maintaining its original charm. Don't let the statistics fool you, unlike its larger looking counterparts this house has lots of large functional rooms, a sensible layout, and it is built to last another 100 years. Upstairs the house includes two large bedrooms with built in closets, a shared bathroom with furniture style cabinetry and marble countertops, extra storage, low-VOC carpets, high ceilings, and a landing for small office or reading nook. The first floor has an open floor plan which a large fully remodeled kitchen with granite and new cherry cabinets, a bathroom, a large dining area, a living room area with a gas fireplace (with hand crafted old growth wood mantle from the original structure) and a separate room big enough to accommodate either a guest bedroom, large office, or den. Additional touches include double leaded glass doors to the side patio, a high box beam ceiling, Brazilian cherry wood floors, wood framed Anderson double pane double hung windows and craftsman style molding. The basement is split between a TV/Living Room that is finished and a workshop/storage/man space which is partially finished and has built in storage space in it. The yard is the perfect representation of an urban farm. It includes a large lawn, two large raised planting beds with built cloches, a custom built shed, a large blueberry patch and 7 fruit trees. The front yard includes a special walnut tree, a native plant garden, and one of the larger mature trees in the neighborhood. Not to mention a large driveway that fits two cars. Just add some chickens and you have everything you need to live local. Neighborhood Description Mere blocks from exciting downtown Ballard
