Your own private forest, just a 10-minute walk from brunch. This stunning NW Contemporary is tucked into the woods along Genesee Park, offering the rare combination of seclusion and true walkability. Stroll to Geraldine's Counter for weekend eggs benny, grab a croissant at Columbia City Bakery, or settle in at Lottie's Lounge for a nightcap. Light Rail is close by too, putting the rest of Seattle within easy reach. Inside, soaring vaulted ceilings connect the main floor to the second level, filling the space with light and making the home live larger than its footprint. New carpet, fresh paint, and custom wood window shutters give it a polished, move-in-ready feel. The expanded deck captures the tree canopy and park views, creating an easy connection to the outdoors. Upstairs, the primary suite feels like a retreat, with a five-piece bath, walk-in closet, and sunlit loft that works beautifully as a home office. The lower level offers two flexible bedrooms, a full bath, a two-car garage, and generous storage. Secluded in the woods, yet walkable to Columbia City, Light Rail, and Seward Park.
