For the first time in 65 years, this beloved Montlake Craftsman opens its doors to a new era. Perched among the treetops on a rare street-to-street lot, this enchanting home blends timeless character with thoughtful architectural additions designed by its architect-owner over decades of loving stewardship.Original craftsmanship remains beautifully intact, including rich box beam ceilings, gleaming millwork, built-ins, and historic wavy glass windows, all underscoring the warmth and artistry throughout. Sunlight pours into inviting window seats and gathering spaces designed for conversation, reading, and quiet mornings above the trees. The living room centers around a striking stone fireplace and opens to a storybook porch tucked into the canopy, while the elegant dining room features display cabinets and a cozy window seat. A charming banquette kitchen, butler’s pantry, reclaimed historic Seattle doors, and beautifully imagined custom spaces add layers of personality throughout.Upstairs, the generous primary suite offers its own fireplace, a large window seat, and a remarkable dressing room inspired by a Venetian haberdashery. The lower level includes high ceilings, hardwood floors, a spacious den, separate-entry guest suite, and flexible living possibilities. Just moments from Montlake Park, Capitol Hill, UW, and University Village, this is more than a home—it is a rare opportunity to preserve and reimagine a treasured piece of Seattle history.
