This North Admiral home, tucked along a quiet, tree-lined street, is postcard perfect. A place where you can truly put down roots. You’ll cherish the outdoor spaces here: a gazebo for summer evenings, a generous deck for gathering with friends, established gardens, and a fully fenced yard with plenty of room for playing fetch with Fido. Here, the outdoors really does become an extension of the living space, and you might just discover a love of gardening along the way. Inside, warm and comfortable living spaces are complemented by bamboo hardwoods, a spacious kitchen with granite counters, modern appliances, updated bathrooms with heated floors, and abundant storage, including the one-car garage. Solar panels help keep electricity costs low and can even keep your EV running on sunshine. And then there’s the location: Schmitz Preserve Park is just blocks away, with Alki, the Admiral and Alaska Junctions, great schools, neighborhood parks, coffee, dining and shopping all close at hand. Easy access to transit, the West Seattle Bridge, Water Taxi and airport make getting around a breeze, though with so much nearby, you may find plenty of reasons to stay close to home.
