Perched above the street on a stone-walled corner lot, this 1948 brick contemporary is solid, private, and well-positioned. Two street frontages and a gated front entry give it breathing room most lots can't offer. Inside, a large corner picture window defines the living room, flooding the space with light while a painted brick fireplace anchors the opposite wall. Refinished oak hardwoods carry through, and an arched hallway niche and built-in cabinet are details that don't get built anymore. The kitchen is a complete renovation: white shaker cabinets, quartz counters, undermount sink, stainless appliances including a gas range, and a bistro nook with a backyard-facing window. The front corner bedroom is the standout — two exposures and elevated neighborhood views. A second bedroom and renewed full bath complete the main floor. Downstairs: a bright family room with new LVP, recessed lighting, and exterior access; a non-conforming bedroom with new carpet and closet; a daylit flex room; and a ¾ bath with laundry. Outside, a deep rear driveway runs the full lot depth with room for an RV or boat, and a large concrete patio wraps the back of the house. The flat rear yard with side-street access makes the DADU case obvious. Zoned NR3, 5,000-SF lot. Pre-inspected; sewer scope available; known items disclosed and priced accordingly. Minutes from Columbia City, Lake Washington, parks, shopping, and the future Graham Street light rail station.
