Storybook charm meets modern peace of mind in the heart of Bryant-Ravenna. Known by the neighbors as one of the beloved “Blueberry Houses" on 28th Street, this 1926 Craftsman cottage "lives large" while retaining its enchanting historical roots. Why you’ll love it? Turn-key and move-in ready home combines historical character with key updates: kitchen, windows, roof, hot water tank, and sewer line. Smart layout: main floor features a light-filled living space; bedroom and full bath; an upstairs spacious bedroom, additional non-conforming bedroom/office/flex space, and generous storage. Bonus space: the daylight basement with a second living area/bedroom, office nook, 3/4 bath, laundry, and abundant storage—plus tidy, unfinished space ready for your custom touch. The backyard retreat: a seamless indoor-outdoor flow leads from the dining room to a sprawling deck, lush yard, and a detached backyard studio perfect for remote work or a fitness gym (just needing a little TLC). Enjoy tree-lined walkability - just minutes from the University of Washington, premier hospitals, UVillage, Tuesday Trivia Night at the Duchess, and vibrant neighborhood cafés & restaurants (Frank's Oyster House & Champagne Parlor and Pancita Seattle). Living here is easy and LOVELY!
