Perched on one of the most desirable, quiet streets in Magnolia, this classic offers the perfect blend of timeless Seattle charm and massive future potential. Thanks to underground neighborhood utilities, your panoramic views of the Puget Sound and the majestic Olympic Mountain range remain completely unobstructed. Step inside to find a spacious 3,340-square-foot footprint rich with vintage character, featuring original shuttered entry doors, solid panel interior doors, gleaming hardwoods, and a cozy wood-burning fireplace. The main floor boasts a formal dining room and a kitchen with a dedicated eating space. Downstairs, the fully finished basement offers flexible bonus space, additional utility storage, and seamless access to the attached garage. The outdoor spaces are a gardener’s dream, anchored by a level, fully fenced backyard. Whether you are looking to execute a high-end luxury remodel or move in and build equity over time, this "diamond in the rough" represents a rare opportunity in a prime, view-heavy pocket of Magnolia.
