Opportunity like this doesn’t come around often. Set above it all with sweeping views of Lake Washington, this property is ready for its next chapter. Whether you’re an investor, builder, or buyer with vision, this is your chance to create something special in a neighborhood surrounded by million dollar homes. Currently configured as a duplex, the flexible layout opens the door to multiple paths: multigenerational living, rental income, or possibly a full conversion into a stunning single family home. The upside here is real. Yes, it needs work. But the fundamentals are in place. Separate electrical meters, updated panel and wiring on the upper unit, newer heat pump, updated plumbing in 2016, sewer liner, and upgraded water supply line. The heavy lifting has already started. Step outside and you’re minutes from PCC, local restaurants, bars, and the weekly farmers market. Easy access to transit and light rail makes this location as practical as it is desirable. Bring your vision, your contractor, and your creativity. Priced $250,000 below assessed value, this is a rare chance to unlock serious equity in one of Seattle’s most vibrant and diverse communities. Cash or hard money only. Bring all offers.
