This is what happens when a 1956 home evolves thoughtfully. You still feel the roots — hardwood floors, large windows, a brick fireplace, slate at the entry. There’s warmth and substance, but the compromises are gone. The kitchen was redesigned as the true center of the home, with open sightlines from living and dining through to the family room and out to the deck, creating a connected, cohesive flow. A true primary suite supports how people actually live. Four bathrooms total (MLS counts 2.75), including three showers. Storage is generous and the square footage works. Downstairs offers flexibility with a rec room, additional bedroom, and separate-entry studio apartment for guests, creative work, home business, or income potential. Perfectly positioned between Seward Park’s old-growth forest and the Lake Washington shoreline and the vibrant heart of Hillman City — moments to Third Place Books, Chuck’s Hop Shop, Caffe Vita, Pizzuto’s, and The Flour Box. Nature, neighborhood, and energy — all within minutes of home.
