Walk to PCC natural food market, the farmer's market, Seward Park's stunning trails and old growth forest, shops, cinema, restaurants, or light rail from this 105 year-old craftsman in Columbia City. The location is amazing with a walk score of 92! Lovingly updated and restored with an eye for the details, this home is turn-key ready to bring only your suitcase and still have all that you need. High ceilings and fir floors throughout the house create a clean and spacious feel. South-facing bedrooms means waking to morning sunbeams (ok, so maybe only May to Sept.). There are decks and balconies everywhere; the sun-porch on the front--so nice on warm days; the wrap-around deck--perfect for barbecuing, evening dining, or a glass of wine at sunset with its city-scape views; and finally, the covered sleeping porch where you can lay in a hammock and watch birds or stars depending on the hour. The living room boasts a fireplace and is furnished in restored antiques in a rich color palate, while the dining room is perfect for just you or for hosting another 10 guests with the expandable oak dining table . The kitchen is indeed a chef's kitchen with a collector's gas stove from 1952 (fully refurbished about 10 years ago), and all the kitchen toys that a cook could want (think VitaMix, KitchenAid, Cuisinart, etc.)! Plus, the north-facing kitchen windows offer city-scape views while hummingbirds flit about the feeder as you rinse your dishes--it's practically my favorite part of the house. But what wins that prize is the upstairs bathroom; done in custom and handmade tile, it offers a heated floor, a clawfoot tub, and a double-fixture walk-in shower for two! This house is so luxurious and comfortable you might want to stay for longer than a year! Pets considered on a case-by-case basis. Laundry shared with tenant of the separate-entranced basement MIL apartment. Utilities and other amenities (including alarm monitoring, internet, lawn maintenance, W/S/G, gas, electricity, on-call maintenance person) will be a flat fee based on the number of tenants (estimated at $300-350); cable will be your responsibility if you have or bring a TV--it's the only thing that isn't provided. Furnished home for 1 year lease; perfect for the relocating professional seeking to live in Seattle a while to feel out the city and decide where to settle. Also ideal for visiting professors, medical fellows and others on long-term, but not permanent assignment.
