Hilltop’s belle of the ball has made her entrance, and she is a must-see. Perched above it all with views of Mt. Rainier, this 1907 beauty has been thoughtfully updated in a way that honors the elegance of her era. Original fir floors, soaring ceilings, arched doorway, stained glass and solid wood doors. The main floor offers a dining room with space to host the whole neighborhood, a living room wrapped in bay windows with a gas fireplace, a bedroom that easily doubles as an office, an eat-in kitchen with a walk-in pantry, a 3/4 bath, mud room, and access to the fully fenced backyard. Upstairs, you’ll find three bedrooms and the bathroom dreams are made of. Picture this: a bubble bath in the clawfoot tub at sunset, book in hand. With east-to-west sunlight, a generous backyard, dedicated off-street parking, and a garage, daily life feels easy here. And when you’re ready to head out, the 6th Ave corridor, T Line light rail station, i5/SR16/509 Interchange are less than 10 minutes away, a commuter's dream. Red Elm Café and Three Hearts are guaranteed to be your go-to coffee shops. Inspection and sewer scope available too…what have you got to lose? Consider yourself officially invited to come have a look!
