Behold! A stunning Admiral abode, tastefully renovated for modern living! On a quiet street bordering Schmitz Park, the upstairs underwent a complete remodel in 2020, followed by numerous basement updates in 2023. An elegant kitchen features SS appliances, expansive quartz countertops, and ample cabinet space. The primary bath boasts a jetted tub and rainfall shower head. Enjoy three bedrooms upstairs - two with private decks. The bright MIL suite downstairs includes a second kitchen, remodeled bath, two bedrooms, den, laundry area, and storage room. The low-maintenance backyard is an added bonus. Just ½ mile to California Ave, 1 mile to Alki, and 2 miles from the West Seattle bridge—ideal location for both relaxation and accessibility!
