Welcome home to this thoughtfully renovated 1940s bungalow in the heart of West Seattle's North Admiral neighborhood, where classic charm meets modern function. The bright open-concept main floor centers on a chef's kitchen featuring quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, an induction range, and a generous island that anchors the space and flows seamlessly into the living room with its classic brick fireplace and large picture window. Two main-floor bedrooms share a beautifully updated bathroom with a glass shower enclosure. Downstairs, the fully finished basement features a large family/media room with built-in shelving, a second full bathroom with laundry, and a spacious 3rd bedroom. Out back, an oversized detached garage with alley access offers built-in workbenches, pegboard tool storage, and ample room for parking, projects, and storage, a rare find in the city. With a Walk Score of 90, you're less than a 5-minute walk to groceries at Metropolitan Market, plus all the coffee shops, restaurants, and bars along California Ave. Easy access to Alki Beach, the West Seattle Farmers Market, the West Seattle Library, and quick transit to downtown make this a truly walkable, connected location.
